It happens with me too. Not to complain. I read it somewhere that if you really care to do something you will never give a reason saying that you FORGOT.
If you say that you forgot to call a friend, you forgot to wish a friend on his/her birthday, forgot to remind your dad about something .... all these are just reasons. If you really cared, you would remember to do those things on right time. Until and unless it is unavoidable situation.
It applies to me also. If I say I forgot, it means I did not care to remember. AM I right? :-P
Well ya I would agree upon you reminding me about what I am writing now when I forget something next time ;-)
