    Right after we bought it, we went to Petco to get the 2 dogs she originally had (that's why I had to give up the downtown pad so I just bought a house instead) tags for the new address.

    She saw the kitty there, turned and looked at me, so I just said, "OK, let's go get cat stuff too and bring him home as well."

    We woke up the next morning with him up inside the chimney. It took 3 cans of wet food to get him out.

    And now we have the 60lb pitt/lab mix we added to the mix. And she's a handful. But I'm glad the "big girl" is here since she now works from home fulltime.


    Jokes aside, that's awesome you found "her." Fuck the car and a fancy tongue, "Lock that tongue down, girl."
    I miss my pibble :(
    Will definitely be getting one in the future!

    Mostly just for jokes, and I got the advise RE jewelry I was hoping to get, so far it's been a win-win :D

    This is most definitely *the one*, in all honesty this thread is half joke/half advice, I wouldn't let this degenerate group of children dictate my life in such a way :-)

    There were a couple times we almost bought a house just off my salary, but after talking we decided to just wait and buy one we both want, not one we could afford on a cop's salary living in a shitty neighborhood in a shitty house, shitty school district etc..

    Living for free here is going to let her take a massive chunk of school loan out, give us a chance to settle ourselves and get our lives in order, then figure out exactly what it is we want to do in regards to a house.

    If your lady is a keeper you want to make sure she's looked after in the case of your untimely demise (due bad gun) or turn out to be what some women would consider to be a asshole, i.e: a man who spends too much on cars.
    Therefore, buy the ring, assuming that she wants a ring. (She may not. Have you asked?)
    Lady is looked after if gun let's you down, and next time you want to spend money on car you can say "But, Dear, I bought that nice ring."
    QED
    Young people today, jeez. No logic.
    She'll be listed as the beneficiary on my life insurance policy through the PD, plus her salary is significantly better than mine = she wont need to pawn the ring lol

    Interesting fact; I'm worth significantly more dead than alive according to my PD :rofl:

    Truth. I've done nothing but listen to these assholes run around and knock over my stuff. Once we buy a house I'm getting my dog, and she can take full responsibility for the cats..

    I know I won't spend less than $2k on a ring, that's non-negotiable really. She might not care, but I would..

    I have a gym membership, likely going to cancel it because I don't go there anyway working 2 jobs. I'm more likely to get out of bed and go for a run, do some free weights, etc once she moves in and can help me with the 2nd job.

    As it sits I'm not really out of shape, but I'm a solid 6'1 and 208lbs. I'd like to get back down to somewhere in the neighborhood of 190, which I'm sure I could do simply by fixing my diet. And that's not eating less, it's eating better. As it is I probably eat 2 meals a day, both crappy meals because I suck at cooking and get lazy.


    The e30 paint is now at the bottom of the list for sure. I went to the range today at work and got to shoot my coworker's dialed in AR vs my POS squad AR. He's sitting there with his nice optic shooting the paper target gun out of a bad guy's hand at 110 yards while I'm happy just hitting the bad guy with that crappy red dot and flimsy handle/stock..

    i hope he's been a good companion. the gf was fostering a black cat when we started dating but pets are a no-go in my warehouse space so he couldn't come with when she moved in. kinda miss him.
    I'd be game.

    Her parents have 3 cats, and unfortunately Petey seems to be their least favorite because he only really liked my girlfriend, who used to dress him up and play "doctor" with when she was young :D We would have taken him in once she left for her current school, but with how old he was it wouldn't be fair to drop him into a new environment with a bunch of younger/aggressive/playful cats 1/8 of his age.

    They look similar! I love black cats, and the wide set eyes make me laugh every time :rofl:

    Ol Petey probably only has another year left in him unfortunately :(
