Today I am officially out of my 20′s.  I’m so sad about this in many ways but it’s a part of life you have to deal with I guess.  30′s just has a bad ring to it for me though.

Anyways, I woke up this morning to a pancake (for real she made a cake out of pancakes) with strawberries and whip cream all over it.  Tried my best but couldn’t get it all down, as it was like 5 pancakes stacked on top of each other.  Later in the afternoon the girlfriend gave me a card.  Ahh I thought, how nice but was surprised at what was stuffed inside of it.  I got the typical birthday card with all that jazz (yeah I know, I should have used some fancy words about how special that card meant to me but I’m a guy and we don’t care about cards) and inside was another envelope.

Was thinking it was a stack of $20′s but to my surprise it was something else.  Inside were 20 “gift certificates” from the girlfriend for a random things I might deem worthy of begging.  They all had expiration dates and rules/restrictions on them, which made them all that more funnier.

Example of some of the tickets:

1. Me Making You Breakfast- Note: This coupon is not vaild for any gourmet meals taking into account the little skills of the provider
2. Something I Can’t Think of Right Now and You May Want Me To Do- Note: restrictions are applied to my mood and the kind of thing you want me to do.
3. Me Going to Get You a Chocolate Bar- Note: this coupon can be used from 9 am to 9 pm only and that is if I am not wearing pajamas.  Also it does not necessarily imply I am buying it with my own money.
4. Me Watching a Movie With You… and Not Falling Asleep- Note: This coupon is valid only until 11 pm.  After that the provider cannot guarantee she will stay awake.

I loved the gift but after looking at all the notes/restrictions I quickly realized how smart she was.  I mean why couldn’t she give me a few tickets like this:

1. Get out of Jail Card- Note: used whenever you know you messed up and I’m about to kick your butt
2. You Win Argument- Note: to be used anytime you want to win an argument 100%, hands down and without dispute.
3. Pass to Get Wasted With Your Amigos- Note: Allows you to get drunk with friends without my prior approval.

Well a man can dream right???  Maybe next year I get those other cards but something tells me I might not see them until I’m 60!
