Timing is everything.

Last night, I was speaking on the telephone with another 914Club member. Part of our conversation was about the WCC, in particular WCC 2005. My wife overheard my end of the conversation. When I got off the phone she asked, "What about going to California?" I told her about the WCC and said that I was considering going next year. She just rolled her eyes and said, "Whatever". For those of you not married, this is very far from having approval.

Today, we went out and bought her a new car. Now, this wasn't an overt bribe. We had been planning on this for a little while. But, it did help to grease the skids. On our way back from the dealership, I more earnestly stated "I think that I'm going to go to California at the end of April". She was much more receptive to the suggestion. She said, "Tell me about this WCC thing". I was in the middle of my explanation when we arrived home.

There, waiting for me, was my copy of Excellence that came in the mail today. While I finished my explanation, I flipped it open to page 147. My wife said, "You should go". Then, I turned the page. She saw the picture of Brad's ass. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bootyshake.gif) Now, she is considering attending as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

End result, I'm in!.
