the memory goes first

Conversation with the father from 15 minutes ago:

Father: Thanks for that cool GorillaPod thingie you got me!
Me: Hey, wait, you cheated! You were not supposed to open that for another week.
Father: What? Today was Father’s Day!
Me: Uh, no, it was not…
Father: What? *checks calendar* Oh wait. Hey honey, did you know today was not Father’s Day?
Mother: What?
Father: Well, then, thanks for the nifty GorillaPod thingie for Flag Day then. I trust my Father’s Day present is in the mail?

Whoops.
