I'm totally forwarding these posts to my ex-wife.I missed my wife's birthday once to see my favorite football team play, ahah! Last game of the league, we could (and were) be Champions, no way I was gonna miss that, after making hundreds of kms supporting them through the season!

You, sir, are a better husband than I.It was my wife's birthday last week. She specifically said that I couldn't buy myself any toys, particularly new basses, any time close to her birthday. I let a decent sale slip through my fingers because I know it wouldn't have been wise and there will be more for sale soon.
Pics of her reaction or it didn't happen...![]()
God bless you Yonni, you just haven't really thought this through. I'm rooting for you though! NBD tomorrow!You, sir, are a better husband than I.
I’m seriously considering just quietly answering the door when it’s delivered and putting it somewhere out of the way until tomorrow.
Sorry, its Bass Meme War. All's fair in Bass Meme War:

Ha! I got a little PTSD re: divorce so no, I ain't even joking on that level. I'm sure @Yonni 's wife knows who she married:Now that is funny!
Can you do one where the car is Yonni, straight ahead is "waiting until after the wife's birthday before buying new bass" and the right hand turn is "divorce court"![]()

You gotta sleep some time...It’s OK. I primed Nicki by showing her this thread, which got a laugh. Then she granted permission to open it. It arrived about 29 minutes ago. I still have all my limbs!

That's awesome! Happy birthday to your unbelievably cool wife! Dude, you used this very thread to pave the way for acceptance? You're a supremely crafty S.O.B.It’s OK. I primed Nicki by showing her this thread, which got a laugh. Then she granted permission to open it. It arrived about 29 minutes ago. I still have all my limbs! NBD thread tomorrow though. Got to make special birthday dinner and chill the Prosecco first.
