Friday evening we were all sitting around after having dinner with my folks. We were outside just bs’ing. I kindly reminded my husband that my birthday is coming up. After he finished laughing, he still didn’t ask me what I wanted! So I had to tell him. Here was our conversation:

C: You know, honey, my birthday is in 3 weeks.
T: Is it?
C: Yup.
T: Damn, you’re getting old.
C: You didn’t ask what I wanted.
T: Because you’re going to tell me anyway!
C: I want tickets to the Mary J. Blige concert!
T: HAHAHAHAHA
C: I’m not laughing. I’m totally serious.
T: When is it?
C: Friday, September 1st at 8:00, at the Verizon Amphiteatre.
T: DAAAAMMMN Bitch! You’ve got all the info already, why don’t you just go buy them?
C: Because I want you to buy them for me! And I need 2 tickets because going to a concert alone isn’t any fun.
T: Who’s the other one for? I don’t want to go!
C: No offense, you’re not invited. Its for Me & Ang.
T: Dammmn! Why should I buy them for you?
C: Because I’m a good wife and mother. I feel like I deserve them. Huh, Ang, aren’t I deserving of two tickets???
A: YUP. I’ve never met anyone more deserving as her.

About 5-10 minutes go by. The conversation has changed & out of the blue my husband starts asking me more questions about the concert and ticket price. So I’m crossing my fingers and toes!!! Oh and them I told him he might as well buy my mom a ticket, too, because she’d like to go with us. He didn’t find that very funny. If anything, I’m sure my dad’ll buy mom a ticket.

Then this weekend our local radio station was giving away tickets and the Punk-Ass husband of mine told me if I wanted tickets I better win them!
