M: Happy Anniversary!
   W: Oh, thank you. The flowers are beautiful. You shouldn’t have… especially since our anniversary was last week.
   M: What? Oh, I completely forgot...
   W: Again?
   M: No way. I can’t believe it.
   W: Neither can I, but you did.
   M: Ah, how can I make it up to you… again? Anything!
   W: Okay, let’s negotiate. First of all, I want to go on that dream vacation you’ve always promised me.
   M: You mean, to Chicago?
   W: No! To Europe. I want to fly first class and stay at 5-star hotels. And no more places with broken heaters, leaky showers, and dirty bedding.
   M: Ah, were those places that bad?
   W: Well, SOMETHING a little nicer, and, oh yeah. Next, I want to get a new kitchen stove. The old one took its last breath weeks ago.
   M: But we…
   W: No, we’re NOT going to use the outdoor barbecue anymore.  It isn’t any fun at all cooking outside in the winter, with icicles hanging from your nose.
   M: That bad?
   W: Not for YOU since you’re always watching from inside.
   M: Oh, well.
   W: And finally, I want a new wardrobe: some new dresses, shirts, pants, earrings...
   M: But…
   W: And, NO, I’m not going to wear your grandmother’s old secondhand pants again.
   M: Is that it?
   W: Uh, hmm, for now. So, why don’t we grab a bite to eat before we start planning the entire adventure.
   M: Ok, I am a bit hungry now.
   W: These steaks are really delicious. Well, let’s see. Paris, Rome, London, then a short detour to Russia, China, and, ooh, and Hawaii on the way home.
   M: Wow. I’d better ask the boss for a huge raise.
