That worked for me until the wife got into owning her own firearms. Then she began to notice it was a new gun and not new grips. Now I ask before I buy and usually get the notice from her that she needs more ammo. The Fusion I have ordered now only cost me a thousand rounds of .45acp for her to waste, I mean shoot. I guess that is a small price to pay after all.

Husband and I seem to take turns buying guns - he gets one, means I get to get one. I get one means he gets to get one. I'm up next... time to start looking around...

Hmmmm, I think I'm probably fine, but just to be sure, here are my last two gun buying experiences (both happened in the last couple weeks):
Case #1 - I agreed to buy a Kahr PM9 from a nice gent. We coordinated a meeting at a local Academy store. I got there first, and after getting bored waiting in the car, I headed into the store. Saw a nice new Colt Defender

, but I refrained from buying it! In fact, I didn't buy the Defender until much, much later (after I had met the guy and bought the Kahr, so probably a good 30 minutes of delayed gratification).
Case #2 - I went to Tomball Pawn on Saturday because I was in the area getting the grip re-done on my Glock 21and getting new night sites put on 3 of my Glocks. I REALLY wanted a new full size 1911 to go with the Colt Defender since it was getting picked on being outnumbered by all the Glocks, and I figured it needed a friend. I left the store WITHOUT buying it, and went home. I didn't go back until yesterday (forgot that they are closed on Sundays

). I waited until today to pick up my new Magnum Research Desert Eagle 1911 G. While ringing up my purchase, I saw a must have AK-47 style pistol in 7.62 X 39, and I even stopped myself from having the guy redo the paperwork so that I could buy multiple guns. I probably won't actually get the AK for a long long time (especially since I'm not gonna be able to get out of work until after they close today

).
I submit these two cases as clear evidence that I have no problems in this area whatsoever.

Great stories! You know you have TMG when you can't counting silently in your head how many your have, or out loud without taking off your shoes.

I wonder which level you've reached when, to keep the babies fed, you resort to manufacturing their food?

I admit to occasional "I forgot I had that!" and "Where did that _____ go?" moments. I have a MS word doc with pics now to keep track.

My TMG moment came yesterday when UPS delivered TWO guns from warranty repair.
