My best friend told me that the best way to get most husbands to do something is to suggest that perhaps they’re too old to do it. How wise my friend is.

I wanted to go to the Belleville Art on the Fair event last May, since it’s a big freaking deal in this part of Illinois, but Charlie said he hated all that walking around and crowds. So I said that’s too bad because he has season tickets to see the Cards play, and since he’s so cheap he never wants to pay for parking, and that two mile walk we always do from his “secret neighborhood” would obviously be a problem for his old legs too. Poo poo, too old to watch the Cardinals lose again. He got the picture stat and agreed to go.

So once there, I saw this darling sculpture for the garden. I bought it for $500, lied to him about it being $100, and talked him into hauling it home (still strong enough, aren’t we amazed). So where would I find the extra $400? That was easy — I went to an online Car Title Loans in Belleville website. I took out a car title loan on the Taurig, I pay it off on my schedule and Charlie is never the wiser. Go Cards, baby! Car title loans are a great solution whenever a girl needs to finesse a little art into her life.

By the way Belleville is near Centerville, Westview, Paderborn, Signal Hill, and Cahokia.
