The Big Typr-R does look pretty good...!

Which color are you looking at?? Gun-Metal and Mirror are pretty nice...

Any fine print for the promo-code such as valid day??

Hope you can sort it out..

Man... so TWM is discounting their knobs.... eh??

You know, every time you say Goodam...I read it totally wrong! Was that the intent, good sir??

So you had a tour of the drive-thru service bay today

Updates on the exhaust, the vendor offers an irresistible price on the ARK Grip, gonna complete the transaction on Wed and he will ship out the exhaust on Thur if everything goes smoothly...

My wife is always after me for one thing or another. I drive too fast or I drive too slow. I use too many glasses and bath towels. I forget to unplug the coffee pot and ..well you get the idea
Now she has these two pots with beautiful flowers that she loves. They hang under a portion of the house where they dont get any rain..so we have to water them each day ourselves. Yesterday it started to rain so I put the pots just in front of the garage door to get some rainwater.

Today i opened the door and started to back out to go to work...i heard this strange crunching sound and got out to find I had run over both pots destroying both pot and flowers!


I am writing this as she is in the other room. I will be leaving soon. I am thinking of throwing the flowers in the back yard and blaming vandals.. Any suggestions?

Depending on how she feels about those flowers, I suggest you just come clean man. If she finds out after that you tried to hide it and lied to her about them, it could easily blow up worse than you could ever imagine. If they are replaceable, then I might try to find some during the day and bring them home and apologize when you give them to her.

Before blaming it on vandals, I would be more likely to carry the remains of the plants inside crying as though you just backed over the family dog while apologizing profusely.

Honestly, you may want to consider some counseling. It sounds like she has some serious control issues that should be addressed. Also, if you walk around on pins and needles, it would also help you to get an unbiased third party onvolved.

I am not being funny here -- relationships are tricky and even the best of them can get bumpy sometimes. Open-ness, honesty, clearly stating needs and expectations -- these all go along way in making the relationship what it should be.

Running over the pots is rally nothing, but if you get worked up about how to approach her with this, then I think you might want to talk with somemone as a couple.
