Oooops Just got caught...

Share your happiness with her. She'll be glad.
The problem with happiness is that it seems to escape many people much of the time; the good thing about it is that it is freely available to all people all of the time.

Tell her to knock before entering, she just blew your moment away!

Happy Listening

Tell her you are receiving messages from the audio gods and cannot be disturbed.

I thought that perhaps you got caught in an audio price fib...

"What is this receipt for?"(her)
"What receipt?" (you)
"This one" She hands you the McIntosh amp receipt.
You start to sweat and think fast.
"You told me that it cost $75 and this receipt says $1950"
She starts to do that stare that only women can do.
Man, why did I not hide that better!!
"Oh, that! That was just done so that when I sell the preamp, I can state that I have a receipt for $1950 and thus be able to get a greater price for it!" Jeez, am I good, you think.
"How did you pay for it" (her)
Oh, think fast, think fast. What method is the best method to hide it from her? Damn, why did I put it on my credit card! Now she's gonna look it up and I'm toast.
She's waiting, waiting...

sounds more like you just just got caught "burning" one...are you sure you weren't smiling and gazing intently at the pint of Ben & Jerry's?
