Alan,

A good friend of mine is a DINK (double income, no kids) and his wife has this
habit too.  However, he is happy because now, his wife lets him indulge himself
with lots of "toys" too ... works for him!

I often indulge my girlfriend with presents and lots of TLC, and she gets ME
good things too ... she got me my copies of Chessbase 9, Gandalf 6, Hiarcs 9 and
Junior 9, plus a few other softwares (like Starry Night Pro 5.0, an astronomy
software).  Now that's a good girlfriend!  She also bought me that extremely
large 2-volume set of the complete Far Side cartoon collection.  (I can't
recommend it highly enough if you like The Far Side by Gary Larson.)  So now, I
will get her some more goodies!
