ANYWAY. I was sitting on the couch talking with my best friend, Dorie, when Mark came home from work. I hardly even noticed him come in, and he had this goofy little grin on his face and said, "Happy anniversary! I brought you flowers!"
Our conversation then went something like this.
Me: Awww, and they're even the colors I like best! Did you even know that I decided these are my favorite colors for roses? It's so random.
Mark: I'm not sure. I don't know. I just walked into the store and there were so many flowers. I was having a hard time picking some out then I saw these and was like 'KAMIS'!!!
Dorie: It was so worth staying here just for that.
Me: Aww, flowers. Squee! Thanks. Now I'm going to take a picture of them. *snap*
Me: *stuttering* Um ... well, you see, we have all these leftovers and I was kind of planning on eating them ...
Mark: No, that's good! I want to take you out to dinner!
Me: Didn't you hear me? We have leftovers I wanted to eat! Like that good rice stuff from last night, and half of the sub sandwich I was eating today ...
Mark: *stare*
Me: And ... we're going to Phoenix this weekend ... can't we celebrate then? Or next month, after Valentine's Day, we can celebrate the day you asked me out ...
Mark: *stare*
Me: ... We just need to eat these leftovers ... and ...
Mark: *stare*
Me: And ... um ... *facepalm* YES OF COURSE I WOULD LOVE TO GO TO DINNER. Can we go to China Isle?
Mark: That's more like it!
Dorie: *laughing her head off on the couch*
((What kind of wife would respond to, "Hey, wifey, would you like to celebrate our anniversary with a nice dinner date?" with "No, I'd rather stay home and eat leftovers!!" Oy. I fail. Now it's time for Chinese!!!))
