    Victory! of sorts.

    So we are out to eat, and I was sitting at the table trying to dig game tokens out of my pocket, and my wife looks at me and says "You're really missing your kilt right now, huh?"

    Yeah, she finally is seeing some of the positives to the kilt, like the ease of getting stuff from the sporran without getting up. (Very handy in the drive-thru lines)

    Emphasise these aspects of your kilt wearing, not to mention your uniqueness and individuality (which after all is why she married you) and in a while she'll be telling you which one to wear.

    ("No darling, the Black sporran goes best with the Red Kilt, you need the brown one with that" etc.)

    Friday was a 'work day' so I had to wear pants. Now, once I have more than 1 kilt, I'll see what I can get away with on the weekends.

    You know that you've really won when she says "Honey, why don't I just go ahead and buy you that kilt you've been saving for...."

    or better yet...

    When Mrs. Pete said, "I saw this on the Stillwater site and knew you wanted one, so I just went ahead and ordered it".

    Just recently spoken by Mrs. Pete: "Hey when ARE you going to get that Stewart Royal you talked about?"

    She knows that I have a list, including the method of saving for the USAK American Heritage that I want. I am going to order from SWK this week though, I am tired of this red kilt I am always wearing.

    I think she knows what size I am, but...

    I already have the royal stewart. I just am not big on the color red.
