I am trying to do the right thing. (SOLVED) ;)
« on: February 06, 2013, 01:52:21 AM »
When your wife goes out of town for a week, it's your responsibility to stay up late doing things you are not supposed to do and having fun that you would not normally have.

I gotta tell you, I suck at this.

I am miserable, having no fun and missing JRex.

I've said many years ago.  A man and a woman are made mentally and physically the way they are... that together, they make a complete unit.

Seems you realise that... :)

Ok,, I guess this is how lame I am,, I am responding to my own thread.  ::)

I broke down and did something that I should not have done.

I spent some money on my hobby and bought a black Kershaw Leek.

I know.. any respectable knife person should have already in their possession, a Kershaw Leek.

But, I don't have one so I bought a nice one.  ;)

It's all black. Most of them are just a plain brushed metal but I wanted one that was a bit special.  



Now,, if JRex finds out about this,, I might be in a bit of trouble.  :o :o

EDIT: A video on the knife.

And last but not least,,, a pic that shows how beautiful this knife really is. How can you not like this knife?

I'm very disappointed in you my brother, very disappointed.   Your old lady is gone a whole week and the best you
could think of is "buy a knife"?   This is worse than I thought.   :-\

:UPDATE: - I just talked to JRex and being the honest guy that I am, I told her about the purchase.

She was OK with it.  ;D

I am at home. Not in a bar with some other girl, not trying to get an old girlfriend to visit.

I am at home, taking care of our dogs and honestly missing her.

Not doing any of the things that she could suspect me of doing.

Our relationship is based on honesty and that is why I told her about my purchase.

I believe it is also why she was OK with it.  ;) ;D ;D

Are you serious?  you were cheating with a knife and you confessed  ::)

You broke the first rule in every relationship
I shall pass this way but once;
any good therefore that I can do,
or any kindness that I can show
let me not defer nor neglect it,
for I shall not pass this way again.

T6, in order for me to get the torx tool and the T6 ;) that I needed for taking apart my knives, I had to buy a whole set of tools.

I could not find just the tool and wrenches that I needed separately.  :'( :'(
