Warning: This is one of those personal, non-tech "this is what I ate for breakfast and this is what my cat did today" kind of posts. Feel free to skip this one... :)
The context of this is that my wife and I are coming up on our 5th anniversary...
5/28 @ 12:00pm (Conversation)
Stephanie (Wife): So what are we going to do for anniversary gifts this year?
Me: Tell ya what, if you can find a Wii, pick it up and that can be both of our anniversary gifts this year... (I'm thinking she''ll never find one, since I've been looking for the past couple months)
Stephanie (Wife): Oh, that would be really cool! (We've been wanting to get one for a while now...)
Stephanie (Wife): Well, I'll see ya when you get back home from your round of golf.
5/28 @ 1:30pm - 5:30pm (Me out having one of the best rounds of golf I've had in a long time...)
5/28 @ 5:30pm (Call from Stephanie)
Stephanie (Wife): Umm, I just bought us a Wii!
Me: Yeah, right! Whatever...
Stephanie (Wife): Seriously, the box is on our living room table right now.
Me: No way, are you serious? (Typical guy, asking her if she's serious when she already told me she was... :P )
Stephanie (Wife): Yeah, so come home and set it up so we can play it. :)
5/28 @ 7:00pm - 10:00pm (Set up our Wii and had some good family fun, including our 3yr old, who actually picked it up pretty quickly)
Lessons Learned?
- Challenging your wife to spend money turns out to not be much of a challenge at all... :S
- The Wii is definitely loads of fun, and it's very easy to get set up...
- Now we can pretend like we're getting a workout in the geekiest way possible... :P
Ok, enough of the non-tech mumbo jumbo. Time to start another week...
