For our first anniversary Holly bought me a new watch because my old one had been around for something like five years. I had worn it almost every day that I owned it because I had always worn a watch.
I wore my new watch every day for a long time, at least several months from what I can remember and then for reasons completely unexplainable I slowly kept forgetting to put it on in the morning. It was always sitting right there on my desk or on my little blue "drop all" plate on the bookcase near the door to the office, but regardless, I still kept forgetting to wear it.
The fact that I was regulary carrying a cell phone may have had something to do with it because all cell phones have a readily available clock built right in, often on the front screen without even having to open the phone up.
Well, one of my New Year's Resolutions this year is to get back in the habit of wearing a watch because it was one of the things that was part of my "routine" before I let it fall away, and because I really like my watch, so I should get some use out of it because Holly was very excited when she bought it for me.
