It was supposed to be a nice long weekend, with nothing to do but working on getting my workshop setup. Then my beautiful wife says to me, "Honey I need you to drive me to houston to visit my Mom." Her brother is graduating from high school and her Dr won't let her drive 2 weeks after surgery.

Upon hearing the devastating news, I screamed out words that would make a drunken sailor blush... not really but I was thinking them!

My M-I-L lives in Houston but sits at the right hand of Lucifer... Seriously when I hear her talk I get that hair raising feeling like fingernails on a chalk board. Then I start hearing the wicked witch theme. (Doot da doot da do do, I'll get u my pretty!)

Then it dawned on me, TKS is in Houston! What a great idea! So this small town guy is stuck in big city traffic but had never been happier. So after driving 35 miles to TKS in a nascar like 2 hours, I pull into the parking lot at 2:55 pm. I look at the sign as I walk in the door and note that they close at 3:00pm on Fridays. Crap, talk about luck. But at any rate, the guys there were great! I knew they wanted to get going and start their weekend. They stayed about 20 minutes late and I bought a ton of little stuff. I probably would have dropped a grand had they closed at 5.

I would highly recommend stoping by their store if you're in the area. And if you are avoiding your evil M-I-L it is an added bonus!

Sorry man, my M-I-L rocks! :D I just need to convince her that just because I'm a blacksmith does NOT mean I want to shoe the Donkey she wants to get after they move...

I'm jealous as heck that you got to nose around at a knife supply STORE...in PERSON. I guess I'll go back to drooling at catalogs...at least I got a shipment from Pop's today! :)

deker, you're lucky... treasure her and if she gets a donkey put some shoes on it... (that kinda sounds nasty) LOL

Severtecher, I'm glad to know I'm not alone... her ex-husband told me before my wedding and his divorce, that if I knew what I was getting into I would run for the hills! No one has seem or heard from him since the divorce, there is even a rumor that she killed him. But I think he cancelled his insurance policy to protect himself. Besides I saw him sitting in the mezzanine during the graduation.

At an annual checkup I mentioned my evil M-I-L to my doctor kinda joking that she was sucking the life out of me. He wrote me a script for xanax... I told him that I did not need them! He said no, they aren't for you. He said that I could drop one pill in her coffee every morning I had to be around her! LOL When I smiled, he mumbled poor ba$tard.
