My wife has been out for dinner to celebrate her 50th wedding anniversary. I tagged along!!! ????
I'm glad she took you along.
She even used my credit card! ??
You had to! There's no reasonable excuse...??
Other than a broken neck - but that would be a sort of last minute reason created by her.
It's funny how that works. My brother once asked me my wedding anniversary and I said I had forgotten the exact date. He said I would get in trouble if my late partner knew that. She didn't care. The next time he called she asked to speak to him and told him so. In her culture (Iran) birthdays and other dates did not have the meaning they have here. Whew.
