I used to think something like this would be ridiculous, but I’m now at the age where I’ve had to back into my age using the current year minus my birth year to make sure I’m the age I think I am.
Perhaps generations of incest has decreased your memory capabilities? (Sorry, couldn't resist the username joke.)
I'm a forgetful sack of shit in almost all aspects of my life. But, I remember when my first date with my wife was (and, to be clear...Clinton was President). I remember what we did the night I proposed. I remember our wedding date. Not because any of it is important to me, but because all of it is important to the person who is most important to me. If I have to tattoo that shit on my arms Memento-style, I'll do it.
That’s the thing, I remember the dates, but it’s the “how many years ago was that?” Question that I’ll forget. Luckily, my wife and I met in 2015 and got married in 2020, so we have the it’s easy enough to figure out.
