    This week has been insane... 14 hour days with three hour (RT) commutes! By the time I got home last night, I was just not feeling... anything. Tired, cranky, had a silly fight with Mr. S, and went to bed so that I could start it all over again today.

    Well, last night after I get into bed and am half asleep, he gives me an envelope saying it might help me sleep better. I was totally confused as to why he was giving me a card but when I finally got it open... oh yeah. :( It was our four-year anniversary!!

    I'm such a lame-o. We actually never do anything for our anniversary except exchange cards (and last year, he forgot!) so it wasn't the end of the world, but I feel bad that I let myself get that busy. We barely even got to talk last night except for bickering about who was doing the dishes.

    We're planning a date night this weekend to reconnect, but I feel so dumb!

    Aww... I'm sure you can make it up to him this weekend :)

    Hopefully you're not sweating it too much!

    Awww :( Doesn't it suck when you get so busy it affects your mood & memory?!

    I do that too... Don't feel too bad.. Now you're even since he forgot last year! lol.

    I liked what you said about date night so you can reconnect. I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels like that sometimes. Like work & life get in the way & affects the relationship sometimes..

    Oops!  I'm sure he will understand since you have had a ridiculous commute the past few weeks!

    @okqueenbee: Tell me about it! This is a particularly busy semester for me since I live so far from school now. Hopefully I can manage it better when I don't spend so much of my time commuting. :( Los Angeles freeways will put anyone in a bad mood.

    @MissAsB: He was totally understanding! My guilt knows no rationality, however. ;)

    It's okay. It's not like you forgot your wedding anniversary that would be a bummer. FI and I don't celebrate our anniversaries. He didn't actually ask, it just happened. So we don't have an official date. We plan on celebrating all of our years together as a happily married couple to make up for the two years we didn't celebrate!

    I'll probably forget our wedding anniversary a few times, too. ;) It's not like I forget the date--even for our dating anniversary, I always remember that it was January 6!--it's that when the date comes around, if I am particularly busy, I won't notice what the date *is*. Because I am lame. ;)

    Aw, I'm sure he understands. I forgot to request off in time for R's birthday last year. I ended up working a 9 hour shift on a Saturday and pretty much missing the whole thing. :(
