In response to my last post, barely 30 minutes had passed when my phone rang…

Robyn: NO!
Me: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
Robyn: NO!
Me: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
Robyn: NO!
Me: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
Robyn: NO!
Me: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
Robyn: NO!
Me: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
Robyn: NO!
Me: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
Robyn: NO!
Me: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
Robyn: NO!
Me: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!

And so on… Though I might be able to get one after the wedding.

    He completely took that out of context! :P

    It was more like:
    Robyn: Now, we talked about this before and you do understand that even though you sold your iPod, you won’t be getting a new one right away, correct? At least not until after the wedding.
    Gregor: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
    Robyn: NO!
    Gregor: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
    Robyn: NO!
    Gregor: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
    Robyn: [sigh]
    Gregor: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
    Robyn: Quit it!
    Gregor: (makes whining noise) Awwwwwww!
    Robyn: Greg!
    Gregor: [pathetic little voice] oooookay…

    “That’s what I’m marrying folks” ;)

    Dear Robin,

    While I understand the need to be fiscally conservative at this important juncture in your life, You must also understand the importance, nay the necessity(!) for Greg to invest [not buy] the new iPod. If a rationale is needed for such a purchase investment, consider it imperative for his emotional, as well as his spiritual well being. This gentle sacrifice on your part now, will have untold long-term benefits to the success of your marriage and your shared happiness together.

    Other considerations:
    exhibit A: as low as $9 a month

    exhibit B: Ships: 5-7 business days

    exhibit C: Free Shipping

    “Free Shipping” Robin. You see, this investment is not a real cash outlay at all, but in truth– an actual CASH SAVINGS! Actual dollars SAVED by this investment. Those are dollars that will go into your children’s future.

    When you consider everything, frankly, I just don’t understand how you can see this any other way but a “Win-Win” proposition for the betterment of your children and grandchildren.
    Sincerely,
    Mark

    PS- Greg, dude you owe me big.

    Dear Mark,

    While I understand your concerns for Greg’s emotional and spiritual well-being, Greg and I agreed upon several conditions that must be met before we would make that “investment”. And considering Greg neglected to earn enough money to buy the iPod on his own (which I would not object to), I can only assume that his well-being and happiness is not dependent upon his ownership of the new video iPod. Therefore, it would be a wise decision to delay such a purchase until our budget allows for such luxuries.

    With all that aside, however, I do not comprehend how buying him an iPod today would improve the lives of any children we may have (let alone grandchildren) considering that the said iPod will be completely obsolete within a matter of months.

    Truth is, if Greg really feels that video iPod is crucially important, he can then go back to the jeweler and return his wedding band. The cost of that would more than cover the price of this precious toy. But he would look rather silly on our wedding day. ;)

    Thank you in advance for your understanding,
    Robyn

    P.S.- You know, now that I think about it, I don’t have to listen to that letter since it was obviously addressing someone named “Robin”, and I’m not sure who that person is. [Ooooo! SNAP!]

    Hey RobYn. Oh, you are so right. I completely concur. Besides, that letter that was “jus helpin’a bruthah out” was totally meant for RobIn. Not RobYn.

    Oh my god, WAIT! I left this comment at ScamCity Greg’s site, not over at SpamCity Greg’s site. I am so embarrassed. Damn! I really screwed up. Please accept my apologies.

    Best,
    Mark

    PS- Greg, dude… I tried.

    “And considering Greg neglected to earn enough money to buy the iPod on his own.”
    I suppose that being a “kept man” does have it’s disadvantages – he has to rely on your good nature to buy his toys.

    “I do not comprehend how buying him an iPod today would improve the lives of any children we may have”
    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Sorry, just the thought of little Greg’s running around scared the hell out of me. :P
