I love this! Same for me. I said, “I like her!” I was so excited to go to the Louvre as I wanted to go for so many years (since high school) My husband and I were some of the first in line. Later that evening, walking back to the hotel, my husband says: “Kim...did you forget it is my birthday.” (Can you tell how excited I was! I never forget birthdays) I said, “Let me buy you a drink,” with a wink.
