Just having a wife would seem to be enough

Beat me (and millions of others) to say that.

No. All wives are the same. They give you grief for the tiniest misdemeanour.

My wife and my mother share a birthday (except for the year  )
So...
. The bad news is I'd be in seriously deep custard if I forgot.
. The good news is I get two lots of hints/reminders.
In almost 50 years together, I haven't forgotten yet. (I'm sort of one-up. She forgot our anniversary a few years ago.)
Cheers,
Peter

Never had a wife but I'm terrible with dates so I feel your pain. Sometimes I have to remind myself what day Christmas is. Pretty much the only dates I remember are work-related and my own birthday. And that's just because I've had others remind me of it for over thirty years

If your dates are terrible, that's probably why you've never had a wife.

They're dioecious so I figured I'd have a chance. I guess I'm just not sweet enough for something that's 75% sugar

This will earn you a permanent entry in your record, which they will recite (among all the others) whenever they need 'proof' what kind of evil person you are. After you heard that litany once too often and try to shrug that old baggage off, you will not only be evil. You will also be uncaring and cold.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

I'm like that too, always struggled with dates, must be some kind of datum-dyslexia.
But until now, thanks to Google calendar, I had some narrow escapes

As long as I remember the wife's birthday I'm OK, all the rest she will remind me.
Pro:
- Better than google calendar because it self programs and self recharges
- seems to find own way home (i.e. no need for 'where's my phone' app)
- free/bonus cooking app (do ask - not all models have this)
Con:
- makes me do other things I don't feel like doing yet,
- way more expensive.
- been told difficult to upgrade but not tried that yet
Signature ready for installation. Please Reboot now.

Herself's birthday is January 1st: no Google Calendar Event is required!
(A serious amount of planning to get a present so close to Christmas is however ...

Or the trick question "you know when my birthday is, right?"
"Uhhh... Sure I do?"
I never remember the exact date.
It took me about 25 years to get my parents birthdays right, what makes any girl think I can remember hers faster?
And I'm now at an age that by the time I'll remember hers I'll be forgetting it pretty soon as well 
Ah well, no such worries if you're single

Hint: Google calendar.
Set up an event, that repeats each year, and add a "Notification" or two: one a week before, one two days before, and leave at least one on the day.
That way, every year you get a timely reminder to get a card, flowers, present, book a restaurant - whatever floats the boat here - and reminder that it's still upcoming.
Works for me, and you get less hassle - every time I find out a birthday, in it goes just in case.

Sheesh...Did you explain to your wife then that's the reason you forgot hers? I'm sure that would've made it okay...

My condolences, they say elephants have good memory, but it's nothing compared to a wife and a forgotten birthday. Decades from now, you (and everyone within earshot) will still be hearing about it.

Yes, once, but she forgot mine first, so it was easy to explain.
