    Shop till we drop

    Later this month I have a birthday. I wish I could throw one or two back but they keep coming. For my birthday this year, I am doing something that I have wanted to do for a long time.

    I am going to see a ballet as Michelle. This will require wearing a cocktail dress with heels. I will be dressed to the nines for the first time in my life. In order to prepare for this event, my wife and I had to do some shopping last night. While I wasn't dressed, I did get to buy something very special for Michelle. I bought a necklace with Blue Sapphires and Diamonds with matching earrings. They aren't real but they definitely look it. I have bought me 2 black cocktail dresses in recent weeks for some events coming up. So I have prepared everything that I can for this evening. So I am ready to go for me, but the wife needed some things. So we shopped for almost 4 hours until we were completely spent.

    I asked my wife a few days ago what was the biggest revelation that she discovered since we got back together on New Years Eve. The answer was funny. She said that she never knew that I liked shopping. I still don't like shopping for my male side, but get out of my way as Michelle. I understand the fine art of trying things on and seeing what works. How you have to shop 20 stores for a single outfit sometimes to find all of the pieces that must fit together for that look.

    When I attend the ballet I will definitely post pictures of me with the necklace and earrings. They are absolutely stunning. I have never had such a special birthday celebration. I might even decide to keep this birthday.

    Michelle, It sounds like you have a great plan and I'm excited to see the photos and read your story. Shopping is something that you need to practice if you want to do it right.

    I really enjoyed the shopping with my wife. It didn't hurt that I got a few things for me as well.

    Sounds like you're having a great time, Michelle! I'm looking forward to your post-ballet post!

    Ditto...my problem is; even if I run in for a drab pair of jeans...i end up on the other half of the store!

    Awesome Birthday present Michelle! I hope the night is wonderful for you and your wife!

    Michelle, Have a great time out! I hope its everything you want and .. it will be a great show!
    I do most of my shopping online right now. The few times I went shopping in guy form they always knew it was for me. Dont know how but the first time I got red as an apple. Not a busted giveaway or anything. Then I was buying a pink teddy and she said "This is going to look great on you!" So I said Thanks! Will it go good with my eyes? So we talked for another 15 mins about eyeshadows for blue eyes I was so happy! Smiled all day about that. but Im still new to a lot of this so the simple things are still makeing me tingle lol.

    Michelle it all sounds so wonderful. Have fun at the ballet and I can't wait to see those pictures. I am sure you will be gorgeous. Oh lets us know if you figure out how to toss those birthdays back because there are several of us here that would love to know the secret.
