    Currency units

    I recently got one of my favorite watches back from a service and was thinking about a new band for it. But then I realized it would cost almost 1/3 of a top quilt!

    I can't be the only one that thinks of thing in terms of the next piece of gear I want ,right?

    I do the same thing. My wife and I went out last night and spent almost sixty bucks on dinner and a movie. The food was good, but she wasn't in to the movie and wanted to leave before it was over and I was thinking to myself.....man I've got twenty five bucks into this movie and a coke.......I could have bought a........or ......or.......... Don't tell her though

    Don't get me started. Anytime I can talk the better half into buying anything, over $100, just for herself, I go in another room and immediately do the Snoopy Dance.

    Im right there with ya!! It drives me nutts when I go on our date nights and drop 60 or 100 bucks and all she does is complain that she shouldnt have ate all the food or the band was ok, or the movie stunk. I always think you would never hear me complaining about a new UQ or something. BUTTTT!!!! What do you do ????

    My wife went to the beach last weekend and got a hotel room for two nights that cost a winter palace. I didn't even think that was possible.

    I looked at what my wife spent in the past year on books, audio books and eBooks. Then I looked at what I spent on hammock stuff. Its a wash. No complaints on either side.

    If I can find an affordable portable CPAP for her then its back to buying more hammock stuff.

    Man, for the price of the Dyson alone.....you could put together an entire new hang setup when you figure in the fridge/freezer.
