I've been with the same girl for 25 years, married 22. The dates that matter to our relationship are our wedding (September 21) and first date (January 20) anniversaries. February 14 is big, for another reason. It's when our high school tournaments begin (and there's a new arena in town).  |
My wife's birthday is 2-19. Last year, that fell on a Tuesday: a very busy one at that for our association. I agreed to work a 4:00 freshman game that day so I could still take my wife out for her birthday.
Small sacrifice, but I had blocked it before the season even started. I won't be the guy who begs off of 2-14 because he forgot to check if it was on a Friday.
