jvision Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Yeah, sweeten her up before the auction. Go way overboard, then you're set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGr8Blade Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 For the CAS auction...When will the lot numbers be available? Anyone know? Also, will it still be open to the public? Thanks for any info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qattarra Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Speaking as a wife, and a "gun match this weekend widdow". Ask her nicely, let her know she comes first.Ask for her understanding in that the auction is not a negotiable date/time, but that you'll make the "US" time worth it for her. Put a lot of thought into what you'd like to do together, let her chose, and then throw in some surprises. BTW bring out the wedding album and go over the fun things that happened, the "remember whens". She'll melt and wont have any problem with you going anymore.

skinless Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 nov 5th isn't a long weekend is it? i was a casualty may long. yeah nev, funny how one day a year is an absolute must to make so many things "official". never had a scheduling conflict with the auctions myself, so the gf has only laughed at the mention of a fish auction. lol good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevchewy Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 yeah nev, funny how one day a year is an absolute must to make so many things "official". That is about how i feel! I still think marriage is no different to the days that we were together before we got married. The only difference i can find is now we sleep in the same bed and i have to wear a ring (another totally different issue!). We were together for 8 years before we got married... you can call us high school sweet hearts. we may have to make a comprimise... i'm thinking that i will be able to drop off my lots... browse to see if there is anything that i need... give my money to a fellow aa member that can bid for me... leave the auction to spend the day with my wonderful wife (constantly thinking about if i won the lot or not)... probably a nice dinner to follow... on the way home pick up my lot's from this fellow aa member... get home and fight about i spent too much time with my fish on her... i mean our day. life can be too complicated sometimes! nev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with to many relationships, is that people go into them thinking the other person will change, the intersts or 'hobbies' will fade out etc, and as true dedicated fishaholics we all know that wont happen. Best bet, either be involved with a fishy person, or with someone who already has a 'grip' and knows that you and your hobby are like kids- a package deal. My ex is an ex partly because he tried to change me. Dating a fishy person isnt the whole answer, but it most definitely would help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only hope for 2 things in life as i have to realize a1foxes speaks the truth: 1 - when our house is built and we move in next year... I will get to setup my tanks! and... 2 - if and when we have kids they will share and partake in my hobby! nev Edited August 30, 2006 by nevchewy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vallisneria Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 At the ACE meeting they announced that the CAS auction changed to the same day as the SAS auction, sept 24th, is that true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not at all. Perhaps they confused it with the reptile expo which does occur on the 23-24th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
