Make reservations for you and the kids. Leave a note and a package of ramen.

Happy Birthday!

I don't know what is up with your dinners every day, but hopefully he gives you some cards and flowers after work!

Honestly, birthdays should just end when you hit 21.

If you want people to celebrate your birthday you have to tell them (1) when it is and (2) what you want them to do.

"Larlo, I was thinking I'd like to celebrate my birthday tonight at that Italian place. I can make a reservation if you're too busy."

Say what you want. Don't sit around hoping it'll happen and then get angry it didn't.


This. This is the year to give him a clue.
And sorry.


And whatever you do - don't make dinner. Especially don't make dinner in an angry way.
If you have to schedule a birthday dinner out for everyone somewhere. If they don't want to go just go yourself but don't cook anything.

He knows it's my birthday because our kids gave me hugs this morning and sang to me. Never offered to bring home dinner either. He just assumes I will make it (as I always do).
