The ongoing "Guess what I got?" WOOTIE thread!
« on: December 23, 2008, 09:30:25 AM »
I am so freaking psyched right now.

I called my wife at her office just to touch base and she asked me if I was going to be around today because they were delivering something to the house today and someone needed to be here for it.  She is planning on leaving work and being here when they call her to give her a delivery window and told me to go forth and errand.

She bought me something that needs to be delivered!!  :hyper:

I asked her if it was something I wouldn't know about till Christmas and she laughed and said "Oh HELL no!" :-)

HEEEE!

It's that new dryer you've been wanting?

Harsh, Dood.

Most harsh. :-)

Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

Well, if'n you're lucky, like me, you've got something beautiful like this on it's way back home.



But since I'm the only one around with one of these, you probably aren't as lucky as me.

Remarkably so.  (and I apologize for the thread hijack by the way)

She's well enough that the nurses wheeled her down the hall to give her a shower.  Standing up - with the aid of a walker - and cleaning the grime off for the first time in a week (not counting the sponge baths  :p )

D6 if all men treated as well, fought for, took an interest in, and loved their wives as much as you obviously do yours, marriages would hold together happily for a lifetime. I'm glad to see she is making progress everyday.

(eta the obvious in treatment of husbands as well, but I think someone else covered that in the Dumpster thread earlier today :lmao:)

As for you asdf, now you got the rest of us all excited knowing as you are. You better not ditch this thread for the rest of the day now.  :-)

The above being said, lol, I am STILL on tenterhooks.

I have to pick the Mancub up and take him into Madison for his alergy shot right after school and my wife is on her way home to be here when the delivery guys arrive between now and 5pm.  :p And they haven't gotten here yet so I have no idea.  :hyper:

I am going to wild guess and say that it might be an Elephant or a Clydesdale.  Possibly a cement mixer.

Did you make the mistake of singing an extra chorus or six of "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" within earshot of your wife?

Those sound like good choices. There might be a lot of Clydesdales available for a good home since the eeevil Belgians now own AB in STL.  :-)

I want to echo Miss Mia's thoughts. You must have excellent doctors there and a wife with a strong will to get back to her family as soon as possible.

May you have a blessed Christmas.

But....the most important gift this season was news I received at the end of November.  I had been picked by a birthmom to parent her child.  After 2 years of paperchasing, the end is somewhat near. :-)

Ohhhhhh I love adoptions!  They make me cry every time! :bawl:  Even though my BIL & SIL went through 2 different birthmoms backing out at the last second they were blessed with 3 perfect little angels!  Every time I look at them my heart wants to just burst. :bawl:
