New medication

This new drug is so strong, I think I could be an excellent candidate for judge on American Idol.

I started this new medication last night. I took the only 1 half tablet. They told me that I might be a little groggy in the morning. Groggy? I don't even know my name!

It really doesn't matter, as long as it works.

Most of you know that yesterday we celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. I had a really nice surprise set up for Heather. Since the 15th year is represented by gifts of crystal I ordered a couple of crystal champagne flutes.

This was the plan. I called ahead to the restaurant and brought jacket with me with each flute wrapped in bubble wrap inside my jacket. Once we ordered, the waiter was supposed to bring the champagne flutes.

Big surprise! Well, as you might have guessed, it never happened. I'm not sure what went wrong and I'm certainly not going to blame the staff of the restaurant. I understand it was a very unusual request and that something went wrong in the communication process.

So, as we were leaving I stopped by the front desk and picked up my jacket to take it home and plan a different surprise. The only difference is now she was very suspicious. As soon as we got home, she went upstairs for a little bit which is kind of normal behavior for Heather.

This was my chance! I quickly took out the champagne flutes and took them out of the bubble wrap. I washed them with soap. You just can't be too careful with dirty champagne flutes. By the way, I don't even know how to play the flute.

My plan was now perfectly working. then I was struck by the thought that she would hear the champagne cork pop from the kitchen. What to do? I went into the bathroom, closed the door, turned on the fan and the water, and the popped champagne as quietly as I could.

It worked perfectly. The glasses were etched with our anniversary years and our names. She said this is really nice but you should have had the date put on them too. I really thought I had nailed that one. Women however, have instincts that are uncanny with these sorts of things.

Now, if you'll excuse me, there are only 309 shopping days left until Christmas. I better get started.

See you tomorrow.
