I keep it in black metal container that I call "The Vault of Penance" that also contains a Bryan Adams box set and a VHS copy of Bio-Dome starring Pauly Shore.

Regrettably, she's gone for the moment. She made an unreasonable demand of me, threatening to delete her account if I did not comply. I did not comply. Huh. I just got her back, and now she's gone.  I wish this wasn't so. |

Same here, but it was her choice to make. She's always welcome back. Anyway, I fear we've taken this thread way off topic. |

My kids are grown and I send them checks instead of buying toys and wrapping them up for under the tree.
Two of my four are getting married next year so I suppose it won't be long before I'll be wrapping presents for grand kids.

I'm not married and I have married nephews and nieces and I've just finished wrapping presents for my grand nephews and grand nieces - I have two grand nephews and three grand nieces altogether! I know that feeling ... |

How is it cutting into your leisure time if you enjoy it? I have the opposite problem. I feel like my adult life (school and work) is consuming my time for video games, television and reading. I find myself spending a lot of time wishing I had more free time for leisure stuff, but then when I do have the time, I waste so much of it trying to decide what the perfect way of spending it would be that I actually end up do nothing  Sometimes I'll be watching a film and I'll just totally zone out, wondering if there was something else I could be doing that would be better, even if I'm enjoying the film up until that point. My weird brain in action, petrified that I'm not using my free time in the most efficient way possible. Roll on retirement |

Roll on retirement Thats like wishing the wife and kids would bugger off and leave you alone for a day, then, when they do you spend all day bored cos theres no-one around, and do hardly any of the things you wanted to. |
