The tale of 2 birthdays

As you know Sunday was Sam's birthday. Last week my ex offered to pick up his gift at Home Depot. Upon arriving at the Depot he saw what looked like Sam's truck. Sure enough Samuel L Ditching Work Early had gone to shopping. (He's out early again today and it's sunny, about 55 degrees. I hate him. hehe) The ex was concerned that Sam would see him and the surprise would be wrecked. We soon came to the conclusion that even if Sam saw him he would never in a million years think that my ex was buying a power tool for him. Sam never did see him so all was well. (Sam ended up getting a circular saw (from me) and a sawsall from the ex and QoQ.)

Fast forward a few days and the favor was returned. Today is my ex's birthday. QoQ was having cake and small gathering for him last night. Sam offered to pick up a gift but didn't know what to get. Together we decided on a combo hunting/fishing license. He had to go to the town office to get it and low and behold who was right in front of him as he turned into the town office? You guessed it, my ex. Sam called me up to say the ex saw him going into the town hall parking lot. What should he do? I was having a major deja vue moment. Again we came to the conclusion that the ex would have no idea Sam was buying a gift for him. The ex was surprised and very pleased.

Ahhhhh what a wonderful life?!?! Or is it just a crazy life??
