My Husband Isn’t Much of a Reader
January 21st, 2010 by Claudia Meydrech in Off Topic,valentine's day

Reading is not one of my husband’s favorite things to do.  If he has read through even one book in our 30+ years of marriage, I’d be surprised.  He loves working on a computer, but even e-books aren’t his favorite thing.  For a little while, years before there were mp3 players, he took an interest in books on tape, audio books, they are still available that way sometimes.  More often they are in the form of a CD, but the thing that really finally grabbed him was the ability to upload audio books to his new iPod, now he is a listening “reader”.  But I still don’t think an audio-book is something I’d be inclined to buy him for the big day coming up next month, Valentines Day.

So here I am in my usual dilemma as to what to give him as a gift, this time for Valentines Day.  I’ve purchased him watches in the past, and he doesn’t have one now.  He’s partial to pocket watches as he doesn’t like something on his arm unless it’s very comfortable.  I’m guessing that if I were to get him something really nice, it would have to be something like a Seiko kinetic Men’s watches, something with bells and whistles because he does like things with gadgets or extras. I did take a look at the Seiko watches, they were nice, but knowing my husband I looked through the many styles along the left of the page and found pocket watches, then I saw there was one made by the Swiss Army Knife people. That’s one that may interest him. The prices were sharply cut, almost so low that I was suspicious…so I read through the faq and liked what I saw, and think you might, too.

Wishing you fun as you shop for Valentines Day for the special person in your life.
