Promise her (and do it) that you will do things like housework; i.e. vacuuming, dusting, cleaning the bathrooms, things like that. You might even try to get good at the laundry. I would also try buttering her up with a few nights on the town. get her loosened up with a little vino, to put her in a good mood, then while showing her the new diamond earings you got her, I would ask if a T8 is O.K. She may fall for it and then your in man.
Good luck aa
