Jake: Hmmmm what to get Leslie for her Birthday?
Jake was feeling so bad that I was sick on my birthday and I still wasn't up to full speed so one of our favorite wasting-time activities is....wandering around Target..If you were thinking of Walmart shame on you...we HATE Walmart. We meandered around until we happened to stubble into the shoe department. Already my spirits were lifted! Then I saw them....Ahhhhhh and a pillar of light landed on the beauties....The purple suede flats. Jake had not gotten me a gift yet so he saw the sparkle in my eye & knew this was his only chance to give me the perfect gift and redeem himself. Just kidding it really didn't go down that way:
Jake: Oh I'm sorry sugar for not getting you anything...
Leslie: Oh look at these cute shoes....
Jake: Do you like those?
Leslie: Yes, very much & they are only $12
Jake: Then here ya go, have them, Happy Birthday Sugar.
Next time when he is desperate to find a gift last minute I'll remember to select the big flat screen TV.
Jake kept petting my shoes....
We finished off the night with dinner at yet another one of my favorite places, Red Robin. All you can drink lemonade.
I threatened Jake that if he told the waiter that it was my birthday he would not live to see the sunrise tomorrow. I did not want to stand on my chair with balloons tied around my head while people sang happy birthday to me. Jake chose wisely that evening.
