Everything was set up perfectly.

Until ~6:00pm last night, when a guy from the flower shop calls. My wife answers (of course) "Hi this is ah Wang [not his real name] from ah [flower shop], I ah wanna confirma a delivawie of [flower package] to ah [name] on ah [date] at [office]" /Chinese accent

Blew the whole damn thing out of the water; 200+ brownie points, up in smoke. He didn't even verify who he was talking to.
