SWMBO thought she had me

[OtherMoe]

So, we're going to the in-laws this weekend; they have no Internet connection. This morning SWMBO says "so, what are you going to do all weekend with no internet and shaving forums to shop for shaving stuff". She says with the biggest S-eating grin.

I say "well, there are a couple of antique stores in your parents town" Her grin dissapears and the word "F-er" escapers her mouth

In reality she is one of the best, she really does not care what I buy,,,,, but, she thought she had me.

Good job.

Place a few orders before you go and have something to look forward to when you return...

 

[Monkeydad]

Place a few orders ahead of time and have them shipped to her parents house to arrive over the weekend.

While her head is exploding and her parents see a side of her they've never seen, just smile and say "I just wanted to look good for your mother".

Convert Father-in-Law and perhaps mother-in-law. Everyone goes to antique stores with RAD. Profit.

I did my cousine like that. I loaned him a little starter set this morning.

Father-in-law is 80 years old, and a little shaky, i'd feel better if he satyed with his electric...... The Mother-in-law did bring me a couple DEs (40s SS and Red Tip SS) she found in her basement. They were pretty gummed up, but cleaned up well enough for shaving grade razors.

This is a home wrecking suggestion if I ever heard one, talk about playing with fire. It really is a good move though if you can go out for a while when you are there and come back with some "deal" on a shave thing or other. I can think of a lot of things you can pull off but they all spell sleeponthecouch.

In true B&B style, you must do both!

In the mountains we would call this, "Smiling like an *** eatin' briars"

And who can say no to a good antique store?

Now THAT is genius. Pure. Evil. Genius.

Hey, I'm not saying I'd do it myself...just a suggestion I'd like to see him try.

I actually planned a day trip to Chicago around going to Merz Apothecary (uber shave paradise) and didn't tell my wife! She thought we were going to Frank Lloyd Wright's House in Oak Park, which we did. But afterwards, I told her we should take a different way home, and bam!, we wind up on the street with Merz's. I said, "...while we're in the neighborhood..."

I also planned a trip to see my sister and her family in Madison, Wisconsin around an antique store. My wife asked why we were taking a different way to their house and I said, "...variety." As I pulled into the antique store's parking lot I told her, "hey look! An antique store!"

I know, I'm horrible! But she loves me!

This has to be the best, worst idea ever!

So how did the weekend go? What did you do? Are you still married?
