funny gift

there's this convenient store called zip stop near eric's job site that he had begun to get in the habit of visiting often during his lunch break. i balance our check book, so when he'd give me his receipts i'd give him a bad time about spending money at zip stop. we decided it'd be cheaper for us to buy his snacks at the grocery store instead of a convenient store. so for the most part, he stopped going to zip stop. however, every so often i'll get a receipt from him from the store and give him a bad time. the other week, i received just such a receipt and when i said some smart remark to him, he got all excited and said, "I GOT YOU A SURPRISE!" i kinda thought it'd be a candy bar or something. (what else would he get at a convenient store.) a candy bar wouldn't be good enough from my dear husband...this is what i got:

a fake rose wrapped in plastic with a little cardboard heart that says "i love you". and a little teddy bear with a crooked bow tie!! you can't totally appreciate how funny it is without seeing it in real life :) he now has it taped to the computer! i'm so thankful for a husband with such a great sense of humor!
