So Zurg is a hero with the ladies.....

[Buz]

What about the ladies? Any heros out there?

Guys, what surprises have your wives/SOs done for you?
Anyone get flowers sent to them on a buisness trip? Have a big screen TV show up in time for the Super Bowl? Walk out to find those cool step bars on your truck one morning?

Or are there only tales of woe?
My recliner was tossed. I can't find my favorite t-shirt. I had to watch 'Sense and Sensibilities' instead of the big game.

Yours in fun, not gender warfare,
Buz


So, how do you hide a thread from your wife?

 

[browneyes]

I let my SO drive my truck to work last Friday. He thought he was pretty special that day. Does that count?

 

[Buz]

Browneyes - If you have let him drive your truck to the game or the tool show, maybe that would have counted.

 

[browneyes]

I would've been the one driving to the game. He hates sports. Maybe the tool show, car show or drag strip.

I let him keep the remote control in his hand at all times without begging or whining to let me watch what I want to. Heck, I even put batteries in it for him.

I can think of many things... (DH doesn't post here, so I will write for him)

One on our kidless trip to Florida, I knew how much he loves Seaworld. I found out information about Discovery Cove and lo and behold tickets showed up for him!

I gave him a 40th birthday party, and did NO OLD FOGEY jokes...

OH, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are the most spoiled creature on earth!!!!!!

Your recliner was tossed, because it was falling apart. You were offered a chance to get a new one. If you can't find something it's because you can't see things right in front of you! And I have never made you watch "Sense and Sensibilities"!

Nice try but your not getting out of this that easy! I'm going away in Feb. and I expect you to live up to the standards your buddy Zurg set!

 

[debster812]

You tell him Mattsmom!!!!

I once bought an engine for my DH to go in a car he was building. The engine needed to be re-built, but I did actually purchase it. The guy I bought it from proclaimed me 'The coolest chick he had ever met'. I took it as a compliment.

 

[holycow]

LOL

(you two sound like me and my DH! LOL

BTW Sense and Sensiblity is wonderful!
(you'd get a good nap my DH would say!

Holycow

And don't forget to post the pics so we can all see how you've spoiled Mattsmom. posting them might protect your next recliner

I surprised hubby with a 55" tv for his 35th birthday. Had him walk downstairs and he walked right by it!!!

Now I'm planning a vacation for the 2 of us for his 40th. I'll pack his bag and take him to the airport without a clue as to where we are going!

But if there was anything that I could do to surprise him...it would be to have tickets to the final four tournaments during March Madness.

Easy, we don't have girls, so I'll have to rely on my decor challenged, color blind sons to help me do something while she is gone.

It will probably look like the Beverly Hillbillies crashed into Sponge Bob's town of Bikini Bottom. LOL

What does it take to get a post locked, anyway????

I can picture it now.....

 

[Beauty]

Oh this is hillarious!!!!

I woke up really early this morning so I could win John a pair of waterproof bibs for hunting on ebay! Does that count?

 

[Poohlovr]

I've paid for all of my DH's trips to WDW. 10 or 11 in the past 3 years, from 5-12 days each. Tickets. air, hotel, souveniers, food...the whole shebang.

Does that count?

 

[Zurg]

ROFLOL, Did I forget to mention the plots within plans?

Could it be that the Evil One has sown the seed of dissent without thought?

Seems so unlikely dosn't it?

Is this post only questions?

 

[Beast]

......I will admit that I enjoy watching the 5 hour version of "Pride and Predjudice" (from A&E) with my DW!!!

It's actually very funny in parts.

Okay, I'll leave now.

Here's a copy of my trip report from when I surprised Gene...


Now let's walk out to Sunset Point for our surprise. We're getting married in Disney World!

Getting Married at Disney World...

...with the help of Jane and the Pixies.

We arrive at our meeting place at the Polynesian Resort to find breakfast all laid out for us: fruit, muffins and pastries in the picnic hamper; champagne, orange juice and champagne glasses in the cooler; a dozen beautiful pink roses, de-thorned; a polaroid camera; and a card and magic wand.
The card is for Gene. He opens it to read...

He says, "Oooh, Baby," and gives me a naughty wink. Then he opens the card to read...

We break into peals of laughter and after a moment of consideration Gene waves the wand. Jane comes forward to perform the ceremony. We stand in the special spot, the Pixies take our picture and Jane says, "Oh no, you can't get married, you have to prove your love for each other."

Our task is to go to the Magic Kingdom and have out picture taken (kissing) at seven specific locations by 1:00 or I will turn into a pumpkin. But first, breakfast. We save most of the fruit and pastries for later, but we still have a bottle of champagne and it would be a shame to let that go to waste. The Mimosas are yummy and I'm happy to report that the champagne glasses made it all the way home intact.

Then it's off to the Magic Kingdom to accomplish our task.

Jane meets us at the Swiss Family Treehouse. We show her the proof of our love for each other. Jane gives us our Bride and Groom hats, and with a wave of her magic wand, performs the wedding ceremony.

We say our vows and Jane pronounces us, "Still Married."

She takes more pictures of us and gives us the roll of film. And we give her a rose.

As we were on our quest, we started giving roses to the people who took our picture. This was so much fun that after our event we went looking for people to share the roses. Gene pointed out an elderly gentleman in a wheelchair and I traded him a rose for a kiss on the cheek. Then we found a handicapped little boy who was at WDW through the Make-A-Wish Foundation. We spent a few minutes talking with his parents and then gave them a rose. We left the Magic Kingdom with three roses and gave them away the next day. Both of us got so much joy out of sharing the roses that Gene suggested we buy some flowers on our next trip just so we can give them away.

And they lived happily ever after...

Suite Disney - I got so engrossed in your remarriage post, I've forgotten the main theme of this thread. What a wonderful story. Thanks for sharing it here with us.

 

[SuiteDisney]

Thank you!

I think it was the most romantic day of my life.
