Coolest wife ever?
It's Valentine's Day and, while most men are preparing for a nice, romantic dinner with their wives, I'm scratchin' my head as to why my wife hasn't succumbed to this commercial farce known as Valentine's Day. Huh, you say? Check this out: two nights ago the wife and I were having dinner together when she - out of the blue - reiterated her anti-Valentine's Day position ("another money-making holiday", she says) and suggested that we go out to the range tonight to send some led down range. (Talk about a man nearly breaking down!)

Sounds like yours and mine were cut from the same cloth. We're shooting an IDPA match together tonight.

Re: Coolest wife ever?
I think the best Valentine's gift you can give is spending time together and to spend it slinging lead down range with your better half is to COOL

I married above my station too. It seems there a few of us lucky guys around here.

Dumb luck, I guess. Lord knows that a man who looks like me doesn't deserve a woman like that!flintknapper wrote:Where do you guys find these gals?

Re: Coolest wife ever?
Dude,
My wife deserves WAY better than me. For some odd reason she loves me and keeps me around.
We have a standing rule, Valentines day is just the 14th of Feb. I usually break it and buy her flowers though. This year, she got a new Dishwasher. OK Ok, it is pure coincidence that ours was broken and we had some extra money come in on Monday, but HEY, She is cool with it.

Re: Coolest wife ever?
Mine agrees with just another reason to spend money day. A card and dinner and she is fine.
I married waaaaay up the ladder though. And she even likes guns too.

Re: Coolest wife ever?
I beat you guys -- today is my wedding anniversary. Y'all still have that to worry about, but I knock 'em both out in one shot. (She does get two cards, though.)
She'd kill me if I spent $70-100 on flowers, so we had a nice lunch at IHOP today with the kiddos -- including the one who was conceived 6 years ago tonight.

Re: Coolest wife ever?
I believe I have the coolest gal. She is the one who paid for my RIA Compact as a Valentine's present. I proposed this past Sunday and she said "YES!!" Hopefully have time to go to the range this Sunday coming up.

Okay, I just have to post something about my Valentine who is my world! We celebrated by going to the range and having a great time doing some IDPA practice. Earlier, I surprised him with some chocolates at work just to let him know how special he is!
