Husband Clothes

I used to be a teacher. (But now write school books…and blogs.) So, I know strategies on making quizzes easy, challenging, or whatever the occasion calls for. For fun, I’m going to give my husband this quiz (which he will totally blow off) :

1) How many days from now is my birthday? (Hint: see title of post)

2) How old am I? (Hint: I am exactly 6 months older than you. I realize sometimes you forget how old you are. That’s fine. Me too.)

3) What do I want for my birthday?

Now, the reason this post is necessary is because I need to send it to my husband. He never gets me presents for my birthday or any other holiday. He forgets. I remind him and explain to him how important it is each year. No matter.

I want some darn presents for my birthday this year. Something feminine. Something pretty. NOT an ugly dry aquarium with cacti in it, for example, that has a cheap ugly mirror in the back and cost $5 at CVS. Yes, he actually did get me this, and it happens to be one of the 2 presents he has gotten me during 9 years of marriage. (Note to husband: Do NOT get me one of these things ever again. If you do that, do NOT pretend that you planned it and think it’s nice. Also, if I throw it away because it’s ugly and looking at it makes me sad, please do NOT fish it out of the garbage.). Now, again, for husband, I am linking you directly to some gifts I like. They are pretty, inexpensive, and perfect for me or any girl. (If, by the way, there are other guys out there, note that ordering jewelry or flowers for your girl on any occasion, but especially NO occasion will result in lots of hot..uh meals for at least a week or two.)

Zales : Item #16809170($25) , #16982472 ($59 or $79), or #17250876 ($104)

1800-Flowers (worry not, no phone call involved): bouquet Thanks-a-Latte ($29) or Daisy Garden ($35)

Husband, please, please, please, order me something from either place–assuming that you did read my email and this entire post–and do so by Sunday (my birthday):
