Should I do this?

I had a great lunch yesterday with some of my best friends: My neighbor across the street (and best friend), his pastor, and 2 others. We always have some topic that we like to discuss…for example, we’ve talked about beauty, truth, friendship; we do this about once a month or so. Anyway, I requested that we discuss communication in the marriage and I told them about “the issue.”

The funniest solution to my problem was for me to grab the family credit card and go blow $1,000 on some worthless crap, go back to my wife and say, “okay honey, we’ve both done something stupid – now let’s talk.”

Yeah, I know. There’s no way that it’s going to happen, but it was funny. I wonder how often stuff like this happens: You spent money, so now I get to spend money.
