Daves birthday is Sunday. For months I have been planning on getting him a "moleskin" journal. All the trendy smarty-farty's use the Moleskin. We first heard about them when the smarty-farty host-guy from Amazing Race was being interviewed on TV, and mentioned that during the stressful continent hopping filming of his show, the one thing he writes everything down in is his Moleskin Journal. We looked for some at Barnes and Noble, but apparently you can only get them online. Then Dave heard that his all time favorite trendy smarty-farty, Rob Bell, writes his sermon ideas and thoughts on life in his Moleskin, which is when I knew it would be a perfect gift. Thoughtful. Meaningful. Useful.
I planned on ordering him a few today, just in time for his birthday, and he tells me last night, "hey, I just ordered myself some of those Moleskin Journals." To which I responded, "Happy Freakin Birthday!"
When I explained that I'd been planning on getting him some for his birthday, he said, that's okay...just get me some socks. To which I screamed back at him..."NEW SOCKS ARE WHAT THE GIRLS ARE GETTING YOU FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY!" Then to add insult to injury, I said, "you probally already ordered yourself the light blue Chargers T-shirt too?"
He laughed and said no, but he'd really like one. I said, "too bad. Now I have to think of a SUPRISE for you."
Which he is not at all happy about.

How 'bout a t-shirt that says "I ruined my wife's birthday surprise so all I got was this lousy t-shrt."
OH I hate when that happens people need to know you don't go out and buy something for yourselve when it's going to be your Birthday lol :)
Doesn't he know the rule about not buying anything for yourself until after the birthday gift giving is over?
