WHat did you give your spouses or girlfriends this Xmas?
I bought my wife a vintage Pucci scarf from eBay. I had my v.a. do the bidding and the ordering for me. It was something we had planned for my wife. My v.a. got the scarf, had it gift wrapped and shipped it to me a day before.
So come Christmas, I slid the beautifully packaged box in my wife's lap. When she opened the box, I was half-expecting her to jump for joy! But it was quite the opposite. She was quiet the whole time when she inspected the scarf. I felt like I did something wrong. She looked upset when she saw the scarf. She told me that it was the scarf her girlfriend sold in eBay five days ago.
So much for gift giving.
