well, he did admit he screwed up in general, which is a rarity. but my impression was he was like "oh well, stuff happens."

in the past when i've called him out for stuff it's the same reaction. so i've learned not to directly call him out - i get him to realise he screwed up. and since he recognised that, it's a plus. but will he decide at some point to go back out and get me a gift card that was on my list that i actually asked for? probably not. money's tight as it is.
