Smile If you could throw out just one thing....

Just one thing that your partner owns, what would it be?

For me it would be a leather trench coat that Todd refuses to part with... (and I'd stuff his horrible snake-skin boots in the arms)

A bunch (that's one thing, right? ) of old Nascar T-shirts, hats and diecasts. Yeah. I'm pretty sure that counts as one thing.

Yes it does... and in the pockets of that coat I'm squeezing 2 Nascar mugs that I have to dust and don't go with anything!

I'd chuck out his Microsoft Flight Simulator software...he lives for it! Drives me nuts when there are far more interesting things to do when you are not working...like help me with emptying the dishwasher, walking the dog...blah. blah.

Anyone else got a partner who won't leave their PC alone for one God darn minute of the day?

LOL Trust me Pulaski... the stuff I wish I could throw out you don't wanna have! Ratty shirts with holes and stains, same for the hats, about three huge boxes full. I kid you not! He never looks in them either, but I guess he's afraid to throw out the memories with the junk?
I don't have anything against Nascar (in fact that's how we met ), and he can keep the good stuff, but who needs rags for memories? I'm not going to make him throw away this stuff though, but I sure am hoping he will see the light and do it himself!

His mother is just as bad... lol... they keep an old bent and bruised hood of Adam Petty's Spree car in their basement! Now I know all the emotions behind that for them, but a hood?!?

I have threatened to use his X-Box Tiger Woods PGA tour 2003 CD-ROM as a frisby for the dog... I CAN actually visualise, with remarkable clarity, me standing at the back door, bending the knee's slightly, remembering everything they taught me in school about discus and launching it towards the back fence and beyond!
The problem is, I don't think he'd be that bothered as he bought Tiger Woods PGA tour 2004 last week

I know, if he were on here, he'd say 'that frumpy faded blue flanelette nightie that is faded, over-stretched and out-of-shape from being washed 1000 times that she insists on wearing to bed'. The stupid thing is - he bought it for me!
