Birthdays Get Involved, Except Mine!

It seems like when someones birthday rolls around the lists start showing up in conspicuous places, like my car dashboard and next to my razor, to name just two. About a month prior to my wife's birthday she starts to read ads, lots of ads, for products that are a 'must have'. Of course they are! She saw a television ad for a floating recliner chair for the pool and you guessed it. She read a woman's publication and saw an article referencing a best eye cream review and where it could be obtained and, you guessed it. Did I mention that she needs a watch? What happened to last years watch? I know, don't even bring that up, just roll with it. Needless to say that with my incredible luck I was able to order the pool float, and was subsequently informed in an email 3 days later that it's on a multi week back-order. Could my day get any better? Actually it did. I was able to get the eye cream and I had to tell her about the float so tomorrow we'll be looking at, you guessed it again, watches! On my birthday I tell her what I want, where to find it on sale, and when the best time to buy it will be. Did I mention she wants a watch?
