Early Birthday Present
Well, Linds has done it again, got me a present that puts my best present I’ve ever purchased for her to shame. Here’s the story:
I got home from work and Linds asked when I wanted my present, I said immediately, and she went and got my new outfit from Old Navy. Khaki shorts, a nice button down shirt, and some boxers, because I don’t buy my own underwear (except the thong collection she doesn’t know about…”dancing queen, young and sweet”). I give her a kiss, thank her, and then my brain starts working, slowly at that. She had revealed a few things in the previous weeks, 1. that she had told my buddy Phil and some other people what I was getting and asked for their advice, and 2. when I was looking into presents for Linds’ birthday present in August she said that Keith Urban concert tickets would be good since she’s spending $300 on me.
Let me tell you, it was a good outfit, but no 300 bucks good. So, Linds and I are heading to play tennis and I say, Linds, are you ready? I come into her room and she has this big grin on her face and she can tell she’s waiting for me to say something. I say, “what’s so funny?” And Linds clearly looking like she’s caught doing something says, “Oh, I thought you said something else” and looks away. I’m like, “hey, btw you must’ve lied about having Phil help pick it out, there’s no way you asked him advice on my clothes” and she sheepishly says, “yeah, I lied” I walk back into the living room and am ready to go and Linds walks past, smiling still. I’m like, “and there’s no way you spent 300 bucks on this, by the way” and she goes, “for christ’s sake bryce, it’s right here!” and she picks up this box that was set down with the clothes that I looked over everytime, a GPS system. A TomTom, cause us normal folk can’t afford Garmin. So, we tried it out, one negative point, apparently it’s Big Stone, MN and Mitchell Avenue doesn’t exist. Bastards!
Anyway, definitely one of the best presents I’ve ever received, thanks.
