Sweety is the far superior spouse in this relationship. He does nice things for me. He’s nice to my friends. He puts up with My Crazy. And My Crazy runs deep. To the core. He is not horrified at some of the things that fall from my lips but instead deals with it. My general laziness, quirks and odd reasoning…
He’s had a couple of moment where he lost his shit but really? Any guy that can go almost 9 years with me and only lose his shit just a couple of times has a boatload of patience.
Tomorrow is his birthday and I haven’t gotten him anything. He told me something that he wanted a couple of weeks ago and it was something that would need to be ordered online and I didn’t have any money until this weekend.
I’m going to stop and get a little something on my way home from work tomorrow and just try and be nice and pleasant for awhile.

The reason I love you so much is because you are exactly like me. I could have written this post. Bill does everything for me. Cooks, cleans, caters to my every need. I am spoiled rotten. And I DO forget to get him a bday present. Or do nice things.
We do suck, Chickie.
Wait…this didn’t make me feel any better, and probably didn’t do much for you either. Sorry. I suck too.

Do you want to try to get the item? If so, go ahead and order it. Then, clip a picture of it and put it in a card, or down in a HUGE box. This gives him something to open, and shows him that you remembered what he asked for. It wont hurt for the actual item to show up a few days after his birthday.

Oh, he knows that I remembered because he asked me if I remembered what he asked for. LOL
Ended up getting him some candy and a card. And a cake. A tasty cake!

Oh, the “My Crazy”. I have that too! The stuff he puts up with from me when I am in “My Crazy” zone is pretty intense sometimes. But he’s never held it against me. I have to remind myself how lucky I am once in a awhile.
You’ll find the right thing for his birthday, I’m sure. Maybe it won’t even be a thing. maybe it will be more, um, err, “abstract”.;) – G

Go ahead and order it, do what Kelly said :)
I have the Crazy too and my husband does NOT get it – but he deals for the most part. He caters to me too, I am very lucky.
See this just supports my theory that these stepford wives who are all about their husbands don’t get sh*t! Us crazy, lazy b*tches get it all!

Chickie, you are a wonderful person. Look how much you love BB and LB. No more putting yourself down.
You lost 26 lbs.? That is fantastic. I think you are awesome, my friend.

Yeah, he is one good egg.

A good man is hard to find and it looks you found one. Be nice to him and when you do have the money, order that gift for him. So what if it comes a few days later, it is something he wants.

I did order it today. They’re some financial planning books that he’s been wanting. And I’m going to follow them with him and I know that will be a good thing.
