What do you feel like saying, right now?

WIFLSRN: Is it just me, or is anyone else getting a lot of rain, like, a ton?

Two 69 Camaro Z/28s. One of those is an RS (super rare limited addition). That’s the one I put out an offer on).

It’s all good. I offered him $285.00. I’ll have to check my computer to get an exact number, but I know I have well over 400 of them, including a bus in the same scale. I’m a big fan of Routemaster London double-decker busses from back in the day.

You’ve got an expensive collection bro. If they’re all within that price range, that’s an expensive hobby. I just can’t picture in my mind where you’d keep them all.

Yeah, they run anywhere from about $150 to $500 each, depending on the brand and rarity, so it does add up. But it’s just one of those hobbies I enjoy. I look at it like a fun side investment. We had our house built with plenty of space because we knew we’d fill it eventually. The room they’re in is pretty big, it’s right next to my studio where I work, so it’s kind of a man-cave and office in one. Makes it feel like my own little museum, but nothing too over the top.

WIFLSRN: I have three jobs already, I’m a veterinarian, a wife, and a mom. That’s three W-2s for my sanity right there. I’m not adding a fourth job called “Entertaining Clients After Hours.”

A client literally tried to invite me to something today, like, “You should come to our little backyard party this weekend!” Sir, I just expressed your cat’s anal glands. That does not make us brunch buddies. My God, they do this to me ALL. THE. TIME. They never do that to any of my coworkers. Just me.

I’m just like if you see me at the grocery store or my favorite coffee shop, please know, I am NOT at work. I’m in my don’t-ask-me-to-sit-and-talk era. Boundaries exist. Mine are color coded, laminated, and come with a polite little smile. Leave me alone, please.

How do you sneak those past your wife? When I was married, if I bought a new video game or gaming system, I’d have to hide it until she went to bed.

I don’t have to sneak anything past her, she knows exactly what I’m into. As long as the bills are paid, there’s space for her stuff too, and they’re not all over the house, she doesn’t mind. She’s got a sharp eye anyway, I couldn’t hide a single one if I tried. Whenever she goes in there, she just teases me that my man-cave looks like Tom Hanks character’s place in “Big”, you know, that movie where he’s basically a kid in a grown man’s body? To her, “just a giant toy store, but with cars”.

But hey, she lets me have my fun.

Why’d you have to wait until she went to bed to bring in what you enjoy? She wasn’t cool with the hobby?

Hey y’all, here go PB and Mrs. PB when PB first brought her to his apartment after Cedar Point LMAO!

So, was she hiding the things she bought for herself from you? If she wasn’t, then why were you hiding yours from her? And if the two of you were sneaking stuff past each other like teenagers, then maybe it wasn’t the gaming console that needed an upgrade. Ya think?

They looked a bit over-dressed for Cedar Point.

I don’t know if she was or wasn’t. She wouldn’t have had a reason to hide the things she bought for herself. I didn’t care what she bought really. But she was always complaining about my gaming and the games I bought. And I did upgrade. I got out. I’m not married, I’m happily single.

I waited until she went to bed so she wouldn’t have anything to bitch about. She was a trip.

Zach, this is exactly why I’ll never marry. Most dudes don’t care what their wife buys, but they can’t even buy one thing for themselves without catching grief for it. It’s the double standard. It’s never about the money, it’s about being treated like you need permission to enjoy anything. Might as well be a kid Lol.

And here’s the real truth, dudes usually say “I do”and mean “I do”. Women say “I do” and most of the time they mean “I’ll try”. That’s the risk. Statistically, women are the ones who leave, they file most divorces. So a man can give his best, pay every bill, stay faithful, and still get left the minute she decides she’s tired of trying.

I’ve seen too many guys living like that, working hard, loyal, minding their business, but sneaking a video game in like it’s illegal. Bro, that’s not peace, that’s prison with a headboard. I don’t know how you did it.
