This is kind of a reminder to those who might forget and a helpful hint to those of us who haven't got a clue on what to buy....
 
I for one fall into the latter catagory for now. I haven't found that 1 awesome gift just yet.
 
I will pick up a card (that is easy enough). Maybe flowers this year.... um... not sure...... Any body got any killer ideas?

... inside the card ... make sure you write something sensitive and romantic ... like, "be nice to me, I could have bought something for the Vette instead!"
 
I'm not sure that you will get anything in response, other than a right hook!

LOL Yeah that would get me some points Steve......
 
Well I did write a romantic note in the card. I made breakfast for her this morning as well.
 
Follow up with a trip to the Casino later this morning. Who knows maybe we can both come out a winner this way. Wink

VD Day has left me with less money in my wallet ... read on for interesting details ...

This morning, I woke up about 90 minutes earlier than usual for me.  My wife was already awake, and had taken the dog outside as usual.  I hopped into my car, and drove to my mechanic's house, whereby he changed the plugs and wires in my daily driver (non-Vette).  I'm no wrench, and can normally handle this sort of stuff - but not in my daily driver.  As I was getting ready to drive away, the mechanic's wife was turning into the driveway, as I was leaving ... so I "guess" I can say I never interrupted anything.  I was home by Noon ... and $50 lighter in the wallet (labor only - I previously purchased the parts).

When I walked in the door, my wife's (single) sister was sitting in the kitchen with my wife.  After a few hours, my wife thought it would be a good idea to go out for dinner.  We hit a local restaurant at 6:05PM (very bad time to TRY to get a table on the weekends, let alone at VD day).  When we were seated, a host greeted the table, and presented each of the ladies with a pink rose.  I took the liberty of introducing her to my "WIFE", and "GIRLFRIEND" (wife's sister).  The guy at the table next to us almost choked! 

My WIFE used MY credit card to pay the bill.

Sounds like the girls in your story all did alright. The mechanics wife became $50.00 richer later in the evening.... Your wife and girlfriend received a rose and a nice dinner....
 
At 1st I thought "What about good ol Steve here? Doesn't he get anything....?" But then I guess rights to go out and share the company of the ladies scores some points. Oh and the rights to tell the story about the other women (girlfriend) accounts for something!
 
Glad you had a great day...... Wink
