Dude!!!!!! You wait until the day before her birthday to start thinking about a gift, then you come HERE to ask advice???? :O

OK I shouldn't get on your case, I've been there myself but it would help if you gave us a little more info. What does she like to do? What's her favorite color? Does she have a hobby she is really into?  We need info man if we're going to bail you out of the wife ack trap!!!!!!

Mine just turned 34. I conspired with relatives and she got a greenhouse for the garden. And she's absolutely happy about it.
I usually try to give something unpredictable, and you should know her well enough to know what she likes.
So...a trip? A nice evening with dinner and perhaps a film to watch? A day off? Something connected with her hobbies?
It doesn't have to be an object, it can be an event you see....

You're already heading toward the inevitable, so I'll help ya along...

Get her a wonderbra, and buy her a consult with a plastic surgeon.  When she opens the gifts and gives you that look that lets you know she's on the precipice of either delighting in your well-though-out humor or killing you, just tell her that she's starting to sag and you want her back at her perky best.  If you have a chance, you might add that if this works out, you'll even spring for the cost of doing something about her bellybutton next birthday!

Man are you in trouble..... :rofl  I would start out with a quiet romantic dinner. From there it depends on what her likes and dislikes are: if she's into jewerly get her something she can wear and show off like diamond earrings. If she is stressed, because I know you have kids, maybe a day at a spa. If she likes to shop and you don't how about a mall gift card. Or maybe an account on AH2  :rock so you can avoid the wife ack...... :D

Remember squaddy knows best..... :rolleyes:

Get her a pair of slippers and a dildo.

Tell her if she doesn't like the slippers she can go *&*(&^ herself.
