    Default What NOT To Give Her For Valentines Day

    1. A box of chocolates, clumsily rearranged in an attempt to hide
    the fact you ate all the caramel ones.

    2. Any food item with the words "diet", "light", or "high fiber" on
    the label.

    3. Any video starring Sylvester Stallone or Jim Carrey.

    4. Flowers from a hospital's gift shop -- or worse, a mortuary's.

    5. Any household appliance, power tool or other item from Bunnings.

    6. A gift certificate fron Carbatec.
    7. Cash.

    8. Anything you could have bought at the petrol station shop on
    the way over, even if you didn't.

    9. An apologetic look and the words "That was today?"
    Androgens Order
    Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
    The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.

    What to give her (OK Me. ).

    *A plant in a pot. (I hate that flowers die.)

    *chocolates in my favorite flavour, even if you don't like them.

    *champagne liquor, (OK any liquor)

    *a sleep in (For any that are mums- the most valuable thing.)

    *cook dinner without asking what I want. (Most grateful for not having to think about it.)

    *only acceptable gift voucher is from a shoe shop. (In a box of choccies of course.)

    Ok so what do I do.
    Flowers - She suffers from hay fever.

    Chocolate - She is on a diet after the overseas trip.

    Jewelry - She like Chinese yellow 22ct gold. Can not buy it in AU.

    Holiday - She has just been overseas for 5 weeks whilst I repainted the master bedroom and bought bedroom new furniture.

    Cloths - She has two wardrobes full of them and suitcases full that she brought back from the trip.

    ????????????

    Dinner out - See diet.....

    A shoe storage cabinet with plenty of extra space. For inspiration see the beginning of the movie 'Overboard' with Goldie Hawn.

    How long have you been playing this game? Those ones don't count. There is no such concept as enough shoes.

    Or a cemetary. (Not recommended for anniversaries either. )
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    I don't go for shoes that much, but I'd Love a gift voucher for my favourite handbag shop. I keep wearing out my handbags, probably because I keep filling them with stuff from hardware shops (after paying for the stuff, of course)


    I reckon I'll get "I see I bought you some flowers again, what are they this time?" and "what's for tea?" and then "see, I ate it all!"

    cheers

    When you get out of the car this evening - put on a Zorro mask and cape, a fake accent, and crawl through the lounge window (too much to hope for a swinging rope) with a bunch of flowers in your hand. Do not crumble under pressure, do not drop the fake accent, and let your new persona do the work. Recite poetry, smother her hand and arm with breathless kisses and threaten to kill yourself if she does not succumb to your passionate advances. Theaten to kill her husband, the unromantic fink, tell her that he is not worthy of her etc etc.

    That, or put on a loin cloth and be her bath slave for the evening.

    have fun.
