my 50th birthday is fast approaching. All has been quiet around here, and I was almost relieved to think no party was going to happen. my richie rich im better than you are neighbor called today to speak to my husband. He wasnt around, so she not so cleverly started to name suggestions for my husbands list. she started to name neighbors and some friends we have in common. I said "um...whats this for?" and she said "oh, you never mind, you will find out soon enough." and she tittered and giggled. well, clearly this is for my surprise party!

im upset and hurt to think she has such little respect for us that she would blow my husbands surprise. she thought herself to be covert and cute, but I found it mean, and spiteful.

What do you do when you are "clued in" that there is going to be a party? do I tell DH? do I let it slide and act surprised? do I confront neighbor and say "not fair!" What would you do? To give a bit of history, these are the folks that rent to awful people and then leave for the winter season leaving us to deal with the noise, traffic and rudeness. holier than tho, im better than you attitude...grrr....im upset.

What do i do?
