Big Bonus Points for Gary

Monday was a big day - the 2nd anniversary of our first date.

I *completely* forgot. I forgot soooo much, that even when I received a voicemail that 1-800-flowers was trying to find me for a delivery, that I thought "Oh how nice, Gary sent me flowers out of the blue". To make matters worse, I didn't receive the message until right before I was leaving work so I wasn't able to return the call and get the delivery. Instead, I called Gary to tell him I was on my way home and I asked him, "Did you send me something today?". He said yes and I explained what happened. It *still* didn't dawn on me why he sent the flowers and he didn't say (assuming I knew). So then I asked him what we should do for dinner and suggested a couple things we could cook.

He says, "Well, I was thinking maybe we'd go out, it is a special day".
Rachelle says, "Huh? *pause*... Ooohhhhhh!!!!!!" Yeah, finally dawned on me.

Of course had I actually received the delivery, I would have been saved since it had a "Happy Anniversary" balloon. Argh - bummer. :-)

I told him I was all set to celebrate February 8th and therefore didn't even think about *this* anniversary. :-)

So... big bonus points for Gary. I, on the other hand, am in the dog house - ha ha.
