Annibirthday 2016

Me: Guess what's next Tuesday?
Austin: Is that the tenth?
Me: No, the twelfth.
Austin: Oh, then I don't know.
Me: It's our three year anniversary.
Austin: I know, I was just kidding.
Me: Yeah, imagine me not believing you.

So, the big day is upon us and Austin was asking me what I want. I mentioned a few things, Amazon gift cards, chocolate . . .
Me: Lip balm.
Austin: Lip balm is boring.
Me: You could connect them from end to end, make them into a necklace for me.
Austin: I'm not doing that.
Me: Jewelry.
Austin: You want jewelry?
Me (blank look on my face): Well, not really. I mean, other people want jewelry. You want to get me something meaningful, so most people think jewelry is meaningful.
Austin: Shut up. Why do I even ask you.
Me: What were you thinking of getting me.
Austin: Well, I was browsing rings for us.
Me: Why?
Austin: ^&*#% You know, it was before you gave me that great lip balm suggestion.

Austin got me three gifts of three for our three year anniversary, three packages of Earl Grey, three packages of lip balm and a plastic necklace that cost three quarters.
Me: You did that on purpose, right?
Austin: Yeah, sure. 

Austin needs socks, so I got him a pair of Fallout Four socks.

One of the lip balms Austin got for me is Vanilla Mint.
Austin: It also came in coconut cream, but I wasn't sure you'd like it. I thought you'd either love it or hate it, so I got you this one instead.
Mhmmm.
So I tried the Vanilla Mint.
Austin: You like it?
Me: Yeah.
Austin: You know the real reason I didn't get the coconut?
Me: Because you don't like coconut and you don't want me kissing you with it.
Austin: That's it exactly.
Me: You're transparent that way.
