He's lovely, really ...

Mr Brammers on Tuesday night: Now listen, since you were late getting me your birthday list, and yesterday was hell and today was a holiday, I'm only going to have tomorrow to go shopping for your birthday, so things may not be as exciting as I was planning.

Me: What's wrong with shopping on Thursday?

Him: Well, you'll want something on Thursday morning, won't you? And then you'd want to do presents rather than have me go late-night shopping.

Me (testily): For my birthday that falls on Friday?

Him: Ah. Friday. Not Thursday, then.

Me: How long have we been together?

Him. Thirteen years. Fourteen? Is it fifteen? You do a really good outraged face, you know!


NB: You lot are all quite allowed to forget my birthday, because god knows I am shocking at keeping up to date with my flist's (and at my age, it does not hurt people to forget a few years have passed), but he and I have been together since 1995! Grrrrr!

On a related note, [livejournal.com profile] ayes_sid  for yesterday and to [livejournal.com profile] separatrix  for tomorrow! I am sending you great gift and relaxed Cake Day wishes!

Well, so the man got it correctly at last, no? :)))


>You do a really good outraged face, you know!

LOLOLOL. Priceless.

No, you don't get your "Buon Compleanno" one second before the 29 :PPP

I am thinking I shouldn't have said anything until after I got the early present, then demanded another silly one for the proper day (our first present comes just after midnight and is always very foolish).

And yes, he is very amusing, and gets away with murder because of it. And rightly so in having me wait!
