OK, I WAS going to a B-day party with d, but B-day boy had a little brother on the way and, in case he decided to come into the world at this moment, there was ulternate date set up. The problem is, my wife had been told this week that the party had been put off...but somehow FORGOT to tell me (even after I had spoken to her TODAY about going to buy the gift) AARRRG !!!! So I show up only to look like a complete idot in a marriage where there seems to be NO communication! Sorry, but I DID call my wife...did not wait...told her. Of course, she appologizes about a gazillion times, but I am still mad! GGRRRR

As for Christmas, her response was : I could go over to your place once she has woken up. NO GOOD says I! She said that Santa would be arriving on the 24th anyways...to which I added, with some confusion: But she wont be here on the 24th either! So I miss out double!

We agreed to talk about it at a later date...but my goal was to let her know HOW IMPORTANT this was for ME. Again, we'll see where this leads.
