OT - NO POLITICS Happy Holidays Edition

I think I’ve actually eaten in there once in 27 years. No kidding.
We moved from a tiny ranch to this much bigger house after our twins were born. In the pics the dining room and front living room / office were without any furniture. We didnt have rooms like that before and so they were empty. My twins rode their big wheels around and through both rooms like Ben Hur.
It drove my father in law nuts. So he took the Bride to Jordans and had her pick out a dining room set on him. True story.

We use ours twice a year. Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve dinner. On those two days, all the crap gets dumped onto the floor in my office. The things we do for love.....

Her parents gave us a 12 setting set of silver when we got married. I also spent the first 6 years of our marriage saving up to get her china pattern completed. Do we use any of it? Hell no. Gotta hand wash that stuff and it ain't worth the hassle. Early in our marriage, I used to kid her that the fancy stuff doesn't make the food taste any better. She was not amused.

Again, the things we do for love.....

The Big Wheel was one of the best inventions ever. I can still hear the sound of those plastic wheels on asphalt lol

And you haven't killed yourself.

Impressive.

I love Christmas, it is by far my favorite holiday

I like the idea of it but am always sad on the day.

I just won concert tickets from a radio contest. I wanted to see the artist but my expendable income is a bit stretched thin right now so I didn't feel it would be prudent to buy tickets. I happened to hear a promotion on the radio to enter for a chance to win tickets through their website so I figured I'd throw in an entry, and I got an email that I won.

Pretty cool. I've never actually won anything from a raffle or contest before.

Last night in Studio 6-B at 30 Rock

Steven Van Zandt, Paul Shaffer and Darlene Love (83 years young)

Lmao most my friends are felons. Some of u should relax. Not everything is serious.

I mean, I’m pretty sure felonies are part of the definition of serious but cool?

 

[Gee Wally]

LOL, Wally, you have pretty much the exact same dining room set that I do!

Bought that shit 30 years ago when the wife and I got married. We pretty much use it to hold a bunch of stuff as well.

I call it the Fancy Storage Room. She hates it when I do that.....

My wife says your wife has good taste.

My girlfriend around that time loved the movie "The Mannequin" and used to blast "We Built This City" every time it came on. She had a saying (while pointing her thumb at me): "Love is blind. Add deaf and dumb when it comes to him."

She was correct.

I love that movie and that song

You’re lucky @caz16 didn’t enter!
