Sometimes I'm romantically-challenged. The latest evidence: Cathy and I had to change around our Valentines Day plans because... I set up an appointment with our tax guy in the early evening (I was wondering why he had that prime slot open).Doh-h-h-h.
I tried the "nothing says loving like a tax refund" argument, but she didn't buy it.
Now the only question is whether I should take flowers to the accountant.

You're my hero! LOL! I think he'd actually prefer chocolates.
ReplyDeleteGood suggestion about the chocolate! Maybe I'll be a bigger refund that way?
ReplyDeletedude... you are my hero, and try the forgivness is godly angle and see what happens.
ReplyDeleteI can top that.
ReplyDeleteabout a week ago:
"Honey, I'll be leaving for Big Sur after dinner next Thursday night."
her:
"What date is that?"
me:
"oh, uh yea. Err, I'll be leaving Friday morning first thing."
Her:
"You might as well leave Thursday night now. As early as you want."
Doh!
I'm suddenly feeling a little better about myself. Thanks
ReplyDeleteBen... happy to help.
ReplyDeleteJohn... that is bad, but at least you're going to go do something fun.
Kent... my wife is well-versed in forgiveness, thankfully!

Brad: You and me both. I also made the tremendously idiotic decision of scheduling an appointment with our tax-returns person at 5pm on Valentine's Day. I'm not even kidding. We're a special bunch.
ReplyDeleteI would just call it a rookie mistake, but you've been at it much longer than I have ;-)
That's really funny Steve.
