    My wife has been asking for a pearl necklace.

    Maybe I'll give her one for Christmas.

    Dude at least write her a really nice Christmas card or something, unless she really loves vacuuming.

    I didn't know that many women like pearls. Only one of my friends (& some of my friends mothers) has a pearl necklace. I don't care for one myself. Diamonds on the other hand.. Can't go wrong with that!

    You'd be surprised how much you enjoy wearing a pearl necklace once you try one on. Most women act like it's not for them, but I think deep down all women want a pearl necklace.

    Ha, not a salesman, just a man that likes to keep his wife happy. And there are few things I enjoy more than seeing my wife wearing that pearl necklace I gave her. It's stunning! :)

    That's my guess on what she'll get. I tried to be coy about finding out which one she liked, but I couldn't keep that under wraps I guess and she figured it out.

    She tries to be nice and act like she isn't deciding for her own gift, but she knows.

    Maybe what I'll do on Christmas is give her something else, and have the ipad/mini from Santa, so that when she opens my gift first she'll be surprised.

    I love pearls! :)

    I cannot believe that I didn't think of this sooner. Aggie/OU tickets for the Cotton bowl. They're all sold out.

    I'm bummed. That would have been a great X-mas gift for him!!!

    That is odd, I asked my wife if she wanted a pearl necklace for Christmas and she was rather disgusted and said she would leave me.... ohh well, I guess it isn't for all ladies.

    creampies are always a nice little extra side gift. She can enjoy the little treat before opening the real presents.

    I've given my wife pearl necklaces before. She got too many, though. At one point she was getting bombed. :cool:

    It is true. In fairness, it was her choice and its a Dyson (not cheap) which she has wanted for years. I had showed her the Dyson on sale in a Costco flyer and she seemed really interested. I had planned on getting her a cheap laptop, because her laptop while still functioning, it is barely holding together. I told her, "I was going to get you a laptop for Christmas, but if you would rather have the vacuum" She thought about it for a second and said "Yes, I would rather have the vacuum" I'm sure she is thinking that when her laptop breaks she will be like "I need a new laptop, NOW":mad:

    I'll definitely get her other things for Christmas but that will be the most expensive item.

    The best gift any man can give his wife is a guilt-free evening with the thadeus.

    email to inquire about my availability this holiday season.
