I was looking at boats on craigslist yesterday. Mentioned to the gf that I want a boat. Her response: Sure... only after you finish your car, clean out the garage, change the stuff on my car like you said (motor mounts, trans mount, brakes), and finish putting up the shelves, then you can get one....only if you can find a place to store it...

I guess no boat for me..

My first wife. I wanted a new motorcycle. She said after we buy a house. bought the house. Then it was after I put a new roof on the house. Then it was after the new windows. Then it was after the new doors. Then it after the deck. Then it was after the new front porch. I basically rebuilt the house. I changed up on her. I built a new shed (for the bike). I then said I'm buying a new bike. She said ok. Came home 2 days later with a new bike. After 17 years of my wanting a new bike and her saying after we get this done. She thought I was kidding. It took her 2 months to go out in the shed to look at the bike.

So I know about "happy wife = happy life", but here's also another trick I learned early on:

Ask for forgiveness, not permission. But, be prepared to get an earful of nagging, maybe a few punches depending on the severity, and possibly no "fun time" for a few days, maybe a few weeks.

I've always wanted a Shiba Inu and for about 5 years, I kept asking and asking, but got the usual "after this or after that". One day, I found the perfect puppy and brought him home. I got in so much trouble with the wifey, but she couldn't resist the puppy. I still had to sleep on the couch, while he got to sleep on the bed. And now, I am in the market for a female Shiba Inu

First wifey. I told myself that when I make top rate at the power plant. That I would get a new truck. She told me that I had to wait a year or two. So wifey wanted a new Grand Cherokee. We go shopping around and find what she wants. Sitting in the salesman's office. Doing the paperwork. I was looking at a sales brochure that had a PowerWagon on the front. They just finished up with her paperwork. She's ready to drive her new Jeep home. "I said not so fast. It's my turn. You got new Jeep. I get new truck". So I ordered my PowerWagon right then. Boy, was she pissed, but couldn't do a thing about it. She knew that I wasn't happy about her buying a new vehicle at that time. Her old Jeep was 4 years old. My old truck was 10 years old. I still have that PowerWagon, and she's dead.
