The 'Holiday Plan'

This is rather delicate, so I will try to be subtle and not get myself kicked off the forum.

My DH and I have a successful physical side of our marriage, which is why I put up with a lot from him! (And probably why he puts up with me, as well!) However, there are some things he really likes that I don't care for too much. We compromised by agreeing that I will go along, but only on holidays. Now, I was thinking of major holidays, like July 4th, his birthday, etc.

But NO-O-O-O, he's thinking also Earth Day, Arbor Day, United Nations Day, National Nurses' Day, Administrative Professionals' Day, etc. He says a deal is a deal and I should not go back on my word. At this rate, I would even have to do what I don't wanna do on my birthday, which falls on Flag Day.

Any ideas on how to get out of this gracefully? If I just break my word, he will break his word on something else. I need female subterfuge and fast, because today is Secretary's Day and I'm still getting over Earth Day yesterday!!
