The wife...

[mjncad]

BTW, the only fight I've ever lost with my wife was when I slipped going around a corner.

Was she chasing you with a knife, or were you chasing her?

Of course, the most trouble I've been in was the year I forgot her birthday.:ashamed: Speaking of which, Tuesday's comming quick. I better start figuring out what to get her.

How about finding her a tractor accessory that you...err...she has always wanted?

I settled for taking her out for a $150 dinner tonight when she got off work. No doghouse this year. Now I just have to get a card to give her on Tuesday.

It is really dumb and cheesy, but flowers have amazing power. Buying flowers always feel like hunting or fishing with illegal device; wife melts every time

I was origionally thinking about getting her flowers as she loves her gardening, but with the heat we've had the last two days, I really didn't feel like cooking last night so we suprised her after work and took her to dinner at her favorite restaurant for her birthday. We used to go there a couple times a year, but since taking the job with the city five years ago we haven't been able to afford it and so haven't been there in the last five years. I think this is the first time I have been there without ordering lobster. They have tails ranging from 11oz to 28+oz at $4.50/oz. I love lobster and usually order the largest one they have on hand. She goes for the crab.

Now I'm broke for the next two weeks, but I'll survive.

Yea but who would spend the money if there were no women. Now I am sure I will get ten lashes for making a joke about women.

Especially if your wife should happen to read over your shoulder.:laughing:

Gasp! Was that dinner bill just for the two of you, or did your kids come along?

I had to bring the kids as I didn't have a sitter. Years back, my meal would have cost that by itself. I had a 32oz tail one time we were there. The individual dinners were $23 (mine), $26 (son's), $30 (daughter's), and $36 ( my wife's). Add in sodas, strawberry lemonaids, desert, and tip...$150. The funny part was that I had the cheapest dinner.:laughing:

Our usual night out anymore is Dennys. $30 for the whole family. We try to do that every week or two.

You're on your own with that one, not gonna get involved in that, "Not gonna do it; wouldn't be prudent..."

My wife and I have been together for forty-seven years, four kids and twelve grand kids and if we can't joke and kid around with each other then what the heck.
