Wow! Interesting convo. My wife makes fun of my forgetfulness all the time, and she is right so I can't say I would have responded the way you did.
I can say if I had responded that way, she would have clammed up and not said a word to me until I apologized. Different strokes for different folks. Glad it worked out for you though (for the most part).
