The Best Kind of Birthday Present: Technology

Hey Jac,

I had bought you flowers and chocolates ordered online, but they messed up so bad they didn’t give you the right balloon that I chose six months earlier to communicate a message… which escapes me right now…

:p

Instead, they sent you an anniversary balloon! And if that’s not bad enough, didn’t give you the included birthday balloon that was supposed to come with it.

The day after it was delivered, the owner was emailing me to say they didn’t have everything they had confirmed a week before. After going back and forth with him by email six times, I pointed out his online “Guarantee and Refund Policy” (Javascript required).

Eventually… he accepted my request that he honour it verbatim. While he was making me somewhat fair counteroffers, the fact is, he chose the refund policy he posted online, not me. I was within my rights to expect him to honour it.

So you got $120 AUD worth of free, if rather early since we have never been married, anniversary goodies.

So… here is your next present… the best kind… something for me to enjoy… seeing you…

    Im not sure if it came across the other night when we were “talking”, but thank-you for my birthday present.

    I was not expecting you to buy something else due to someone elses screw up, Dont get me wrong I appreciate it, But the flowers were amazing in itself. Maybe you could post a picture so the world can see too. Especially the singing balloon!

    I love you, my “still the one”, the song is hard to get out of your head.

    Kisses
