Jeez, can I be any later for our coffee date? Seriously…
If we were really meeting for coffee today, I’d switch mine to a nice glass of wine and call our coffee date happy hour.
I’d let you sit in the smooshy chair with a blankie and we could curl up in our “fat” pants with a glass of wine and chat.
So, how was your weekend? Hopefully it wasn’t as nutty as mine.
I hinted in Friday’s Sound Byte post that I some surprises up my sleeve for the weekend. The surprise was a HUGE birthday bash for my hubby at the Iowa Hawkeye football stadium press box. Let’s just say my hubby doesn’t surprise easily. He didn’t have a clue until I made a lame excuse to head to the stadium on an away game weekend. But even though he may have been on to the surprise he was so happy to see his friends there.
The other surprise was this…
Yep, I’m the wife that contributes to my hubby’s midlife crisis by buying him a Porsche. Crazy I know, but here’s the deal. My dad always wanted a sailboat, and he had to wait until he was dying before his wish came true. B2’s dream was to own a Porsche and you know what? I’m not going to wait till it’s too late to make that dream come true…so there you go.
Over the top? Maybe. Living the dream? Definitely.
What’s your dream? I’d tell you mine, but that’s fodder for a different post.
Anyway, if we were really meeting for coffee wine I’d lament to you about how the Hawkeye football team totally blew the game on Saturday. Triple overtime … TRIPLE! And they still couldn’t pull out a win.
And then I’ll shut up because I’m starting to sound like a guy, which is weird. So, let’s change the subject and talk about girlie things like shopping…
Now it’s time to finish off this glass of wine and go to bed, but not before I head over to Amy’s and see what’s brewing.
>YOU'RE the BEST wife EVER!!!! I am not letting my hubby catch a peek at this post. He is currently on line shopping for a new snowmobile. If I actually earned any money, I may be willing to contribute after reading this post ;D But, I got nothing. Hee.
Sounds like you had an amazing weekend. Other than the football defeat… booo!
>You got him a Porsche? I'm pretty sure you win at being a wife!
>Wow oh wow, that's amazing! You definitely win the Best Wife Ever award. 🙂 But seriously, I love your style. I love that you don't want to wait to the end of life to make someone's life dream come true. That's just awesome.
>40 = cool car, and better for him (ahem, you) to enjoy it!!! forget our dessert date, we are scooping the IC loop in that bad boy LOL. i would never guess that you could rent out the stadium — waaaay cool! also, can you e-mail me your e-mail 🙂 for planning later in the week? fun, fun!
>I'll pick up the wine tab since you are paying for the Porsche. You win for being the best wife! Now, I am going to drown myself in what's left of that bottle.
>You are so right. If you can make it happen now for him, why not realize the dream. 🙂
