If she found out she would kill me in my sleep.Originally posted by nutwister View PostOh man! You will be lucky if there's F'n Cheerios on the counter in the morning.
The day they released me from the hospital we were pulling into walgrens to get something to cover the hole in my side so I could shower. I heard a song that I like and told her I couldn't think of a thing I would rather do than twist the throttle right now. She looked at me like I had three heads and told me I was a phuucking idiot."If A equals success, then the formula is: A = X + Y + Z. X is work. Y is play.

I know the feeling. I needed fuel badly in Banshee. Had me thinking I had some issues to solve, till I realized it needed reserve on, but only on one side.
So in I go and tell SWMBO that I need to ride the bike to the petrol station for a fill up. She looks at me and simply said, "if you wreck, I'm not picking your azz up"!!Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

Good for you.
There's no rule, as far as I know, that when you get back on the horse that threw you, you gotta tell your spouse....
