I just saw the X-mas list....
« on: November 21, 2016, 12:43:35 PM »
the other day I saw the X-mas list on my old ladies phone. it had my name on it on the front screen. I didn't mean to read it, but it was out there...

I saw (another) Seahawks Jersey, blades, and..... a four ball roller!

A storm 4 ball roller....

I don't need it, and if I tell her, she might get upset because I saw the list. If she gets it, then I have to use it and I can't sell it. I prefer a two ball roller and a tote, or a slim 3 ball roller and a tote. 4 ball rollers take up too much space...... but enough pockets for my extra crap I take to the alley - like my "healthy" snacks lol.

I think I'll tell her that I don't need that bag.

Few Christmas' ago, she got me a bowling ball and ended up with two of the same bowling balls.... well, actually one i had was a solid and she got me a pearl..

Does a round object have sides? I say yes, pizza has triangles..

Why not just try to make to work? Keep a open mind with it, you may never know that it may work out for you.

Or give her hints of what you really want and see if she changes what she gives you.  You can downplay the importance of a 4-ball roller while talking of the benefits of a 2/3 ball roller and tote.

I personally use a tote for crap (tape and other essentials) and a 3-ball slim roller for balls.  I convinced my wife this was a better option while changing lanes in a tournament.  You can have your own reasons.

HOLD ON JUST A SECOND THERE MISTER!   >:(  >:(  :P

HOW DARE YOU!   >:(  >:(  ;D  :D  :P

This needs to be addressed publicly......... "but it was out there", AS IF that rationalizes it!  Admit it, you DID "mean to" read it.

I use a backpack with a shoe compartment and 2 and 3 ball totes all day. I don't think I'll ever go back to a big bag with pockets.

Some of you guys made me feel worse for some reason lol....

I've learned she's never wrong even when she is.

I've learned, when I catch her doing wrong, she turns the table and I ended at fault and confused. for example...when I pointed out she made an illegal U-turn, I got blamed for messing the radio station, the stove being on, and taking forever to fix the dry wall.....????


I've learned, she has this glow in her eyes when she sees me use all the stuff she bought me.... Snap On KRA tool box, bosh power tools, Iwatch, etc.....and I've seen the flames in her eye when she finds things still in its original package or tags.... like them silly looking house slippers, the BOSS cardigan - guys with bellies shouldn't wear cardigans.....

I'm just going to to tell her it was an accident... the notification pop up while her phone was next to me....  ;D :o 8) 8)

As the Rock (in character) would say:

Know your role and SHUT your mouth.

Especially considering this is THE WIFE and a present....major boundary crossing egg crushing things can occur if you fail to heed this warning.

Been there, done that.
