<p>Happy 20th! </p>

<p>In our house, whoever remembers 1st, texts the other and “wins” ! This year, (our 21st) I remembered first, but three days early. I was looking at the wrong month on the calender.</p>

<p>I think that might be worse than forgetting!</p>

44

<p>Our date is easy to remember (New Year’s Eve), but I can never remember how many years. I have to think what year my father died, then subtract a year.</p>

45

<p>That’s sort of what I do. It’s the year I graduated from college, minus a year. Why I remember the year I graduated better than the year I got married, I don’t know. Should I be ashamed?</p>

<p>I remember our anniversary because I use it as my password for everything. I use a 4 digit base number (month, day, two-digit-year) then add the initials of the company or website requiring the password. For example, College Confidential could be ####CC. If its not long enough I add the entire name of the company: ####Verizon. Makes it easy to remember passwords AND my anniversary! DH does the same, so we have no excuse to forget. :smiley: And since its not part of our birthdays or social security numbers, I figure its a semi-secure number to use.</p>
