Maybe it's not an issue about the dollar amount so much as it's an issue about the nature of the item itself. I mean, Loop IS an elected official, correct? She can't be buying kinky stuff in her own name!

I would ask my husband why he needs it when he called. I don't like curiosity to come between us. lmao, I don't like curiosity to come between us translates to I HAVE TO KNOW!

Sure, but you have to agree to legally share all assets with me, live in my house, help raise the kids, cook occasionally, and give me sex at least once every week or so.
Just between you and me, my limit isn't high enough to be worth it. Don't tell Loop though.

Technically she was appointed to fill the remaining term of an elected official who left for health reasons, so she wasn't actually elected. Plus her term is up next month and she decided not to run for another.

Look on the bright side. Maybe you are buying a Christmas present for yourself.

So I get home yesterday and ask the wife how her shopping spree went. She replies, "It's going well." Going, not went. I was like I gave her my credit card number at around 10:30am and she was still shopping at around 6pm. I did the sensible thing and drank a couple beers, while deciding I'm never ever opening that credit card statement. Like ever. Stupid Christmas.

Hey, I have not had control of a check book in nearly 3 decades!! Relax, and grab another beer! ;D

Yeah. And I gave her the card info without asking questions, so clearly I'm not that worried about it. There's still that little voice in the back of my head going, "What the hell did you just do?!?!?!?!" Let me put it this way, you trust your husband not to cheat on you right? If he called and said, "Hey hon, what your friend's phone number? You know, the cute one with the big rack?" Even though you trust him, you wouldn't have that little voice asking questions? no, I'd ask him "which one, there are like 4 cute friends of mine with big racks" I'd assume he was planning on hooking her up with one of his friends.

She has her own card! She needed mine for some reason. Maybe she's just doing your shopping for you. I wonder what you are buying for her. Imagine your surprise when she opens it, says how much she loves it, thanks your profusely with some serious lovin'.

By now, there should at least be a pending charge (unless its Citi, who is notoriously slow about that).
I am not sure how I would react if DW asked for my CC number -- I'm 95% sure I'd ask what it was for, BEFORE giving it.

That is ok Dark, Goose texted me today asking ME what HIS credit card number was. Then he texted me back asking me what his log in information was. Then he text me back and said "well shit...I got locked out of the account online." I texted him back and said "THIS is why you don't handle the finances! Stop fucking with shit!"

Some of it. I'm not going to login and look at the charges though. Ignorance is bliss and all that.
LOL! I'm pretty sure we've had almost that exact same conversation. Or, I'll want to log into the bank account for some reason, and not know the current password, so I'll go through the reset process and forget to tell the wife. She'll call me a few days later angry because she's trying to pay the bills and can't get into the account.
Beats me, but something tells me she's going to get exactly what she wanted this year. It'll be the right size/color/pattern/options and everything.
She's been working for a couple weeks now doing freelance ad design and copywriting. I think she's getting like $10/hr but it's something.

I hope he knows what he's getting for me, since I gave him fairly specific and yet possible to screw up directions on what he's supposed to get me.
I'm doing the freelance ad design and I am trying for a part time web admin position... we'll see.

I'm not doing any shopping until December 21st. If the world does end, I don't want to have spent all that money for nothing.

I'm pretty sure you're joking, but I wonder if we'll see a bigger than normal surge in shopping on December 22nd from people who really did wait to see if the world would end before Christmas?

It wouldn't make any sense. If the world does end, I'd have no need for the money I saved by not buying any Christmas presents in the first place.
