Ok, how bout we try this...{as IC fumbles around in his pocket, pulls out a hand full of loose bills and slams them on the table} I'll be the first to ante up. How bout we all pitch in and buy your husband a nice set of cuff links or tie tack...no, no... A watch! A really nice watch...something that he wears and looks at everyday. We'll send RJ to pick one out...I hear she's really good at the holiday shopping
Ok, we got the watch...now we need some really uppity silver shiny wrapping paper with maybe some of that white little fru-fru ribbon and a bow...definitely a bow!! Lill, with your ankle still healing up...do you think you can find some time to wrap this thing up in a very decorative...but yet classy way? You can..good!!
RJ, did you keep the receipt...because I'm not too sure how this is going to go over.
Ok, now sometime in February {now this is all on Karen} Prepare a nice dinner...maybe even pull out that surf & turf recipe...slip into that hunter green lingerie..no, no, no...that little ice blue number you got. Winter time in Maryland..yea, go with the ice blue. Candles would be a nice added touch. Finest silverware & china you got...serve him dinner, making sure of lots of bending over in full view of him. In the middle of dinner, present him with the gift {ok Lill, we need the watch!} When he asks what's it for...tell him it's a one year anniversary gift, get up from the table, put on your robe and go take yourself a nice long hot bath....let him stew for a while trying to figure out what anniversary he missed. Hopefully he'll figure it out and the watch can act as a daily reminder of just how lucky he is and maybe..just maybe light a little fire under his azz about how much it bothers you
