My wife is always complaining about my lack of spontaneity. I like a plan and hate to deviate from it.
One day I decided to be spontaneous, so I stopped on the way home and got some flowers and a card. I planned to arrive home and announce that we were going out to dinner.
As I drove home, I imagined the thrill of my wife's voice at this idea. I arrive at home with the flowers and proceed to announce my dinner plans still riding the enthusiasm of my idea. So much for a great idea.
As my wife so eloquently informed me, " The next time you plan to be spontaneous, you need to let me know ahead of time."
