Girlfriend feeling REALLY guilty...
« on: March 26, 2006, 10:52:02 AM »
I just dropped about $300 on tickets for a Jimmy Buffett concert (GF's favorite) and now she is REALLY feeling guilty because of how much they cost me...this price includes tickets only, let's not forget about gas to get there, spending the night in a NICE nearby hotel, dinner, drinks at the concert, the obligatory concert t-shirt or two, etc...so this little adventure is going to end up costing at least twice that amount.  

Well, in return, she told me she would buy me anything I wanted, within reason.  I've been bugging her to buy me something bowling related, an idea which she really wasn't all that receptive to especially since I have more than several balls laying around the house and she just bought me a Diablo back in February (V-Day gift).  However, after laying a really bad (good?) "guilt trip" on her, she has given in and is going to buy me any bowling related "item" that I choose.

I've narrowed it down to two things, I think...a ball-spinner and a Pyro.  Being that I'm a "tinkerer", I think I would get lots of use out of the ball-spinner.  However, I am a very big fan of the Reactor cover/Twin V core combination and a Pyro would complete my Fire Line.

I'm looking for some advice from all you Stormers...what should I get???

No kidding.  You're, you know, blowing $600+ on her for a concert, and the best payment you can think of is bowling stuff?  I think there's something wrong with you.  You have all of the appropriate letters available in "bowling", I think they're just in the wrong order.



You guys are killing me! LOL  Dude, I get that stuff WITHOUT spending a lot of money, she is the "giving" type!

I do like some of your suggestions (especially that picking up a Parrothead idea...LOL) and it does look like a spinner will be the choice.  Thanks for all the advice...and the laughs!!!

Definetly the spinner.  That way she is not buying you another bowling ball since she obviously does not want to get you another ball, and you'll have you own spinner.  Plus it is the more expensive of the two so it will save you some cash in the long run
