I was about to make the ultimate "man-rifice" for Valentine's Day.

I was supposed to be headed out to accompany the Mrs. to go see Mamma Mia downtown.

She got the tickets for Christmas.

I hate plays
I hate musicals
I hate Abba
I hated the fact that it didn't even start until 8 PM (usually in bed by 9:30 get up at 5)
I already watched the movie with her several times

And I figured if i was REALLY lucky, I'd get to listen to the soundtrack that she just HAD to buy all the way home.

But I was doing it for her. Hell, it's Valentine's Day, right? ( and because it is worth several Wifely "atta boys". Chevelle needs some stuff)

I was ordered to take my son's car for an oil change before he headed back to College tomorrow, pick up a few things on the way back and before it got too late.

When I got home there was a note:

Took the dogs for a walk...

Missed the play...tickets were for the matinee.

I am very upset that I never checked the tickets.


I fell to my knees and yelled, "There is a God!"

Good thing I bought a card and candy :cool:

So the question of the day is do I buy more tickets...NAW!

Any reason in particular you chose "Dancing Queen" for me? Being that it is my favorite ABBA song is besides the point.:)

"Dodged a Bullet" ???

Hell, I'd rather take a bullet than listen to ABBA. It would be less painful.

My wife likes ABBA. I'm not allowed to even dislike them..




Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a king
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music�s hiiiiiiiiiigh
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You�re in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

Nope, just randomly picked the names from a list of ABBA songs as they appeared in the list. Waving
