Love it. But remember it's not only lame gifts and saying stupid things. When she says "You don't have to get me anything." BE VERY VERY CAREFUL AND DON'T FALL IN THE TRAP.

We celebrated 38 years on 12/07. I've been there a few times.

And never fall for the "Fine - go ahead then, I don't care".

(It often turns out that she really does care, and that we're really not supposed to do it).

Those Dyson's are really nice ... WHAT AM I SAYING!! If you do it, be sure to attach jewelery or at least the same value to the vacuum or your last firearm purchase (whichever is larger)

What She Really Means

At long last... The Men's ultimate Guide to what a woman really means when she says something. Pay close attention (there will be a quiz later).

You want = You want
We need = I want
It's your decision = The correct decision should be obvious by now.
Do what you want = You'll pay for this later.
We need to talk = I need to complain
Sure... go ahead = I don't want you to.
I'm not upset = Of course I'm upset, you moron!
You're ... so manly = You need a shave and you sweat a lot.
You're certainly attentive tonight. = Is sex all you ever think about?
I'm not emotional! And I'm not overreacting! = I'm on my period.
Be romantic, turn out the lights. = I have flabby thighs.
This kitchen is so inconvenient = I want a new house. .I want new curtains = and carpeting, and furniture, and wallpaper.....
I need wedding shoes = the other 40 pairs are the wrong shade of white.
Hang the picture there = NO, I mean hang it there!
I heard a noise = I noticed you were almost asleep.
Do you love me? = I'm going to ask for something expensive.
How much do you love me? = I did something today you're really not going to like.
I'll be ready in a minute. = Kick off your shoes and find a good game on T.V.
Is my butt fat? = Tell me I'm beautiful.
You have to learn to communicate. = Just agree with me.
Are you listening to me!? = [Too late, you're dead.]
I'm sorry. = You'll be sorry.
Do you like this recipe? = It's easy to fix, so you'd better get used to it.
Was that the baby? = Why don't you get out of bed and walk him until he goes to sleep.
I'm not yelling! = Yes I am yelling because I think this is important.
All we're going to buy is a soap dish = It goes without saying that we're stopping at the cosmetics department, the shoe department, I need to look at a few new pocket books, and OMIGOD those pink sheets would look great in the bedroom and did you bring your checkbook?

babarock that list is great

As to the dyson suggestion, Me and the wife both agreed that would be our present to ourselves one year. It is really nice to see the time you spend vacuming actually doing more than moving dirt around. They are worth every penny. Disclaimer - The wife and I usually upgrade something functional in our everyday lives around a holiday like cookware, serving ware, dishes, furniture but it is a very joint decision.

I would put Hubby in the doghouse for getting jewlery. I can think of a lot better things to spend money on: a new kitchen floor, another gun, a green house. Have been married for almost 30yrs and we have an understanding.
