I think my wife...

[skiprat]

...must be having an affair..:frown:

Here's the story in all it's sordid details...

I was cleaning my wife's little Mazda MX5 today before setting off for my normal week away from home..
Anyway, while I was cleaning and vacuuming under the seats, I came across a little pack of things I haven't had to use for years...and neither did my LOML, or so I thought...:frown:

I was absolutely gutted on my discovery and it took a lot to hold back a tear or to confront her with the evidence.. I said nothing and later set off on the long road to London and played all my sad country and western songs that I have on the CD and contemplated my future....bleak..:frown:

So, I'm sitting in my hotel room, nursing a pint and I wonder how I'm going to approach her and also, how on earth am I going to tell the kids????

Life sucks...what should I do???

Here's a pic of the evidence....

Please tell me the package is unopened! Maybe it's not what you think...

You must start working with pink and lots of bling to bring her back.

Either that or her coworkers have sticky fingers and she is protecting your treasures.

No worries Steven! It's not an affair, I assure you. She simply has too much respect for your pens. She has realized, she can be wreckless with the packaged pens and, NOT yours :biggrin:

 

[Jjartwood]

Time to get the little blue pens out to keep her happy

 

[Indiana_Parrothead]

And a 10 pack no less!!!!

We have all been tempted to stray.

My wife says she can relate...

 

[wouldentu2?]

I hope none of those were used ones.

 

[BRobbins629]

No fears. Join the club. My wife uses them all the time.

 

[dwarmbrodt]

Maybe she is "just holding them for a friend"

 

[ottotroll]

sounds like a bad case of "pen_s envy"....

 

[Karl_99]

She's probably using them for stunt pens so that people will steal those and not get the good stuff!

Be strong!!!

I'm sure she bought them so you could turn blank and use the ink cartridge from them.

 

[Kenny Durrant]

When I first started turning I would have been upset. After she lost the first five or six I'm happy to see her using one like you found. If she's not one to loose pens I would take her off the payroll because we all know that's not good advertisement. I'm sure it will all work out for the best.

Check the expiration date. They may be leftover from younger foolish days.

Try playing the country music in reverse. You get your house back, wife back, dog back...

 

[PenMan1]

Not to worry, Skip! The package hasn't even been opened.

AND everyone thinks about getting a little strange ink, every now and again. It usually happens to me when I walk into the bank and see those long, slims all dressed in black and chained to the marble counter.........Hello, Hot Mamma!

 

[Janster]

..well, you are doomed now! You just RUINED your Birthday surprise

 

[MarkD]

Just think about it this way....it took a 10 pack to replace you!

Steven: This is a hilarious thread! Thanks for the post.
