TMI - Vacation vs Villinova

[chakka3421]

TMI - too much info on personal struggles of Chakka! Read at your own risk!

Spouse and Chakka and are reading Sunday paper out on deck while drinking coffee. She innocently says, "honey, the Villanova game conflicts with our Labor Day family vacation." Chakka sheepishly replies, "I know". She points out, "I was looking at our season tickets and it's a Friday night game right"? Chakka's heart thumps knowingly, "that's right dearest". She ponders, "I don't think family will mind if we leave early Saturday morning and go to the game Friday night, do you"? Chakka almost chokes on coffee, "my dear, I don't think so do you want to talk to them first"? She states emphatically, "no, we can just tell them that we will leave real early so we get there when they wake up, do you think after a night game we can get on the road early"? Chakka's internalizes snarky laugh to himself, "sure my dearest one, I think we can do that cause it would be no earlier than when I get up for work anyway"! She puts paper down and turns to me, "ok then let's plan on going to the game Friday night and then leave for vacation early Saturday morning". Chakka nervously responds, "sound like a great plan to me dear one"! The spouse raises paper again and Chakka realizes that miracles do and can happen at any time!

See you at the Nova game!!!

When I saw the thread title, I thought this was going to be like the poster last year whose wife scheduled a lunch that conflicted with the PSU game.

That nervous moment, that all of us married guys know, when waiting carefully on you wifes next words as if it's a call for a death row pardon.

Ha - it's the most critical moment because your non-verbal has to match your voice - it's when the spouse turns and looks you straight in the eye that's the most nerve racking moment to get it right (and I don't always succeed either).

Forgot to mention I went back inside to get us another cup of coffee and was jumping for joy and fist pumping! Had a great day yesterday and didn't even mind or complain getting the honey do list done (maybe that was her plan all along).

Yeah, at like 3:30 right? That was awesome.

Anyone else occasionally look at their wife's wedding ring and see this?

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them

Do you really address your wife as "my dearest one" when you are talking about football???

That was a great thread. Who plans lunch that late anyway? Wasn't horseback riding somehow involved as well?!

Ha - I would easily trade going to the ND game for outlet shopping - in fact, I'll even mention it Saturday morning during our drive! Forgot all about that big outlet place near Harriman exit.

texascpa - Nova game better not go into quad ot or we are in big time trouble and will end up being a very very long season...

That would be Exit 16 for those of you scoring at home, or even if you're alone.
