Oops- I forgot!

From: Jim in Knoxville

Question

HER wedding anniversary is coming up in about a week. She told me what she wanted for her gift yesterday, but I wasn't listening or I forgot, or something. What do I do? Help!

Our mental powers are substantial but we're not mind readers.

Here's your options:

1. Admit you weren't paying attention and re-ask the question with a humble apology.

2. Buy her something outrageously expensive and hope she takes it back. Also a dozen long stems won't hurt. A gamble, but worth the risk?

3. Run. And don't turn back.
