I remembered the little folded up paper chooser things from elementary school and looked around online for how to make one. Turns out they're called <A HREF="http://www.girlpower.gov/GIRLAREA/gamespuz/cootiecatcher.htm" REL="nofollow">cootie catchers</A>. I found some directions and made one in which the "fortunes" on the inside were actually things I thought she'd like me to do for her. Two of the four were things I'd do to benefit her, and the other two were things I'd do in my own life that she would like to see me do. <BR/><BR/>I presented it to her as a "flashback to grade school" sort of thing. What she ended up with was that I would jog for at least 20 minutes a day for the next 7 days (I <I>never</I> exercise).<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the challenge!another husbandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00207340842270230580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219874887932551072.post-74237672948929431932008-06-04T16:43:00.000+03:002008-06-04T16:43:00.000+03:00a few hours late, but when my wife went out to run a few errands I surprised her by having a home made dinner ready when she got back.Pathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00273754646811331109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219874887932551072.post-32335281676550451692008-06-03T14:45:00.000+03:002008-06-03T14:45:00.000+03:00My wife is almost always the one who fixes breakfast every morning.

We weren't supposed to get gifts, as we're saving up for a big 20th anniversary trip in two years.<BR/><BR/>But, she's been wanting a GPS unit, so I got one. Yes, she was very surprised.
