It''s just as well. I think he would lose interest before he found out what made a sapphire desirable. I will have to find one and say ''I would like THIS sapphire.'' Maybe in 5 years or so. I''m still working on convincing him that people really DO get ''push presents.''
Ha!

I guess I''d never *expect* one but if my husband carried my baby for 9 months through god knows what and wrecked his body (at the very least, temporarily) and went through all that pain, I''d feel like a token of appreciation would be a very kind gesture.

He gets to "finish" at sex, and then you''re in for a crazy 9 months. UNFAIR!

HAHA. A "token of appreciation". Love it!
 
J is not signing onto gmail chat and it is angering me! I want to berate him for not telling me about Restaurant Week!

I guess DH doesn''t really understand presents. He doesn''t particularly like giving them or getting them. He likes having whatever I get him, but I don''t think he gets excited for gifts the way normal people do. I LOVE giving people stuff, and I love picking out just the right thing. I also love receiving presents, even if they aren''t what I''d normally choose for myself. DH is missing that part of his brain. It''s weird.

J is kind of the same way. He just doesnt think to give gifts!

We had been dating for 3 years I think before I got flowers for the first time!

Do you get him presents a lot?
 
OK girls, no more complaining about getting up early! Seriously, put on your big girl panties! Mommy Wino gets up at 5:30!

BTW, good morning! Got my rib popped back in last night so I am MUCH better!

VC - sooooo exciting! You and HDG will be getting engaged close to each other! We need to have a kegger!

My J doesn''t give gifts either. In fact last year on my B-Day he ended up being in CA for biz and FORGOT my B-Day. He''s still living that down.

A kegger sounds FAB!

Oooooo...that''s bad.

A''s not big on gifts, either. But he grew up in a family that didn''t really *do* presents. So I figure he might learn eventually. If not, I''ll just start picking out my own stuff and charging it on our joint account.

Morning!
I LURVE it. Callas are one of my 3 fave flowers, the flower I plan on carrying when we get married, AND the flower all the women in my family have carried when THEY got married. So there's more to it than just the pretty and interesting cut.

ETA: morning, sunny!
 
You know it!

And this is the worst part of it HDG! Knowing he has the ring is pure torture, I''m not gonna sugar coat it. I had to wait like 3-4 weeks. It was dumb.

Oh dude we got the stone 6 months before setting it. Every week I asked DH, did you do it yet? Did you do it yet? I''m surprised he didn''t strangle me.

Oh man. I hope I don''t have to go through that! A couple weeks I can handle. But if my mom shows (at the VERY end of March), he has the ring, and he hasn''t asked yet, he''s gettin his butt kicked cuz I want my mixer!!!
