That sinking feeling hit me like cold water when I saw the date - our 10th anniversary was in 18 days, and I hadn't arranged anything beyond a crumpled "romantic dinner" note scribbled months ago. My wife deserved crystal waters and sunset views, not last-minute takeout. As panic tightened my chest in the grocery checkout line, I fumbled through app stores until Date Alarm's customizable widgets caught my eye. That neon countdown tile became my lifeline against catastrophic romantic failure.

The steering wheel vibrated under white-knuckled hands as sleet hammered my windshield like shrapnel. Somewhere near Toledo, highway signs blurred into gray smears while Google Maps stuttered on my phone mount—its cracked screen flickering like a dying firefly. I’d missed the exit. Again. Fingers fumbling across icy glass to reroute navigation, tires skidded on black ice. In that heartbeat between control and chaos, I cursed every tech company that thought drivers should juggle touchscreens at 7

That's how long I'd carried this "luxury spa experience" gift from my well-meaning sister, watching expiration dates loom while drowning in work deadlines. Every Sunday, I'd vow to book it, only to face a maze of phone menus, unavailable time slots, and websites demanding registration passwords I never received. My knuckles whitened around my phone that rainy Tuesday – I'd reached peak frustration. Then I spotted the

My boss had just sprung an impromptu dinner meeting at my place in 90 minutes – a "casual networking opportunity" that felt like culinary Russian roulette.
