Re: Planning on having night out w/ the wife til she sent me this emai
If the US version of The Office is as funny as the UK one, or she actually means the UK version, I'd prefer watching The Office over playing poker.

The US version isn't quite as good as the BBC version, but in my opinion it's arguably the best show on TV right now. And Steve Carrell is quite possibly the funniest man on TV right now as well. Getting back to the OPs question though, I'm guessing your wife wanted you to watch The Office with her. As I said before, it's a good show so missing some poker isn't a hard sacrifice in that situation. If she had hinted that she wanted you to watch Trading Spaces with her, on the other hand, it may be more pleasurable to fill your bathtub with piranhas and let them gnaw on your testicles until you pass out. Just a thought in case that situation should ever arise...

I'd take the counter play.
"Are you sure you want to stay home? I was really looking forward to a night out with you." You can take the response and figure out what's really going on, which may be nothing or a summons or something in between.

Re: Planning on having night out w/ the wife til she sent me this emai
Brilliant play, off duty. She clearly is giving you the opportunity to "re-choose" to spend time with her when your other option is almighty poker. Definite trap, and the only way to avoid pitfalls for as long as possible is to turn it around and make her show her hand first. My wife makes me choose to spend time with her versus play poker all the time, and it's usually wrapped up in this kind of innocent-looking bow. Some day I'll learn.
