Dodged a bullet

I have to go visit the mothership in Kansas City early next month. I'm supposed to fly in Sunday, I idly looked at the Royals schedule, and voila! they have a day game Sunday. Flights to KC are limited (for good reason, I guess) so I'd have to fly Saturday morning to make the game.

I was actively looking into it... checking with our sales guys who have season tickets... when I realized that I already have dinner reservations booked at a nice restaurant that Saturday evening. For our anniversary.

Yeah, that would go over well with the wife - "Sorry dear, I'm cancelling our anniversary dinner to go watch a baseball game with a salesman."
She'd have three days to change the locks. Back to the original plan of flying Sunday; I'm sure I'll have other opportunities to catch a Royals game.

It's not on our anniversary - I would have remembered that.

That's why God gave us calendars. :-)

Oops! Good save.

Good save BUT you can go "rib hunting" while you are there and bring back some amazing ideas on how to make ribs...feel free to use us to eat/criticize your makings of the ribs...

She'd have three days to change the locks.
I remember when I did that. Apparently the ex was upset and said, "I didn't give her permission to do that!"

That, and then the later exchange between my dad and Janice remain a few of my favorite quotes from that time period.

Dad: (bewildered) "She changed the locks."
Janice: "He must have pissed her off."
