Say Wow!

[kevin_standlee]

Tuesday was Lisa and my wedding anniversary. Between my back injury, her ear noise, and the amount of other errands and chores we've had to do, our present to each other was to spend a quiet night at home. We did have presents for each other. A list of Traditional Anniversary Gifts says that for one's 13th anniversary, gifts of lace or furs would be appropriate. We ignored that. Photos follow.

Watch on YouTube

I gave Lisa this copy of this big train atlas, and here Kuma Bear shows how big the book is relative to such a little bear.

After opening her present, Lisa gave me a gift-wrapped box, and I can definitely say that when I opened it, I said, "Wow!"

Yes, it is indeed a box of ShamWow. Lisa doesn't watch much broadcast TV, and therefore hadn't seen the Annoying ShamWow Guy until she was at a convention with me and had the television on in the hotel room.

We are both happy with our respective presents.

Happy Anniversary!

My Husband and I will have been together for 13 years this Oct 25th.. but we've only been married 9.5 years. We celebrate our Tenure on May 27th, 2010. Yah, we got married in 2000.. I figured that would make it nice and easy for hubby to remember which anniversary we were at. heh heh

Happy Anniversary!

What did Kuma get?

Kuma gets to read the train book, and can use one of the smaller ShamWows as a towel when necessary.

It's a couple of days late, but Happy Anniversary. And does the ShamWow work as well as the commercials say it does?

Nothing ever works as well as it does in the infomercials, and we haven't had any use to try and draw water out of a carpet or anything like that yet, but as towels, they seems to work okay. We're using one as a bath-mat and another as a hand-towel in the kitchen, and so far they seem workable. Whether they'll actually save big bucks on paper towels is another matter.
