I am convinced that boys never grow up: their toys just get more expensive. My husband is a master auto technician, so you guessed it, his weakness is vehicles. His Chevy truck has a beautiful custom paint job, sound system, V8 six-liter engine, etc. I've never complained because he's been able to do everything for an insanely cheap price, mainly by doing mechanic work in trade for the equipment.
Well, he called me at work today to tell me "How much do you love me?" He bought a set of 22-inch custom wheels/rims for his truck! Granted, he got them for only $500, which is a steal for the set, but it's still $500! And we have taxes on the house due in January! And just last night, we had a long talk and decided to cut back on extras and pay more towards the house payment!
Why do they have to do stuff like this? GRR!!!

The next 5 he didnt spend much on, then he bought a Tax exempt Austin Mini Cooper S off his dads mate for about £1500 ($2718) which i was told was a steal. But its sitting in my garage waiting to be fixed up, I have leather seats in my kitchen, dashboard in my attic, windscreen in my bedroom.......I am a car widow. And when he spends money on cars, I dont even get told.....no flowers or nothing. Men!
He's also a major gym freak, spends god knows how much on suppliments and other gym paraphanelia, and he will watch ANY sport on tv, ESPECIALLY football (UK Football he is an avid LIVERPOOL fan) snooker, cricket, darts, rugby, tennis,boxing, bmxing, formula one, rallying........the list is endless. And again, I get no consultation, he just takes the TV remote and turns over......
Men. Who needs em.
