Why I'm a horrible person:

Today H was talking about March 25.  Like said the date 4 times.  And I kept being wary, like who the eff cares about March 25?  Um.  That's our anniversary.  Last year, he called me from Iraq at midnight on Mar 24/25.  And I didn't know why, even after he asked if I knew why he had called.  We will have been married 6 years.

    Sometime we can have a bad at devoted wife competition Margot! I don't even think that's all that bad. At least you got a reminder this year so you can remember to do something.
    I've seen a lot of military surprise homecomings. It wouldn't work on me. I always have my back to the corner and my face to the door. Looking for terrorists, criminals, various other threats, and husbands.

    LOL stan my only reminder was him repeating it over and over.  And over.  In my face.  I suck. But I do have time to figure out the whole 6 year thing.  Last year I think he got me a cappucino maker, because 5 years is supposed to be appliances or something else ridiculous.  I might have gotten him a card.

    I just read that 6 years is sugar or iron. What a strange gift category. 

    I just googled 'iron sex toy' for giggles and to try and help you find an appropriate present, and I got this

    Stop making me laugh.  And that is not helpful btw.  But sugar or iron?  I haven't googled it yet because I don't want to know.  WTF am I supposed to get this guy?

    This website says wood. I think that's his responsibility.

     

    ETA, I just read more of that site. Lucky 13 is FURRY TEXTILES?! WTH does that mean?! Because all I can think of is that crazy Furry fetish I saw on CSI one time.

    The one website I found says sugar or iron for the 6th anniversary as well. One of the ideas for sugar is to make your H is favorite dessert. That could be cute and fun without getting weirdly kinky like sugar on iron or something strange.

     I don't know.  Furry textiles...furry handcuffs?  Furry sheets?  Furry coat?

    BTW, your sig pic and tag line get me every time.  Too much cuteness, then too much funny.  I seriously read it to myself every time.  So there.

    Re my sig: Part of why I suck at devoted wife is that I rush to take the corner back to the wall seat even though I know he wants it. Sometimes it's his present that I let him have it.

    Is a sword iron? because that would be cool, and also something I want for myself.  I refuse to google.  I looked at Stan's link and started wondering how long I have been married.  I SUCK.
