happy what?
ohhh, right. that sappy, lovey day. right. i told myself i wasn't going to be whiny about it today. and i think so far i'm doing okay. my dad and i are going to a concert tonight. The Kings Singers. ever heard of them? yeah, probably not. they're British and do all kinds of music - remakes of popular songs, traditional folk songs, and old madrigals. they're a-m-a-z-i-n-g. seriously. there's 6 of them and they NEVER double up on parts. if there are less than 6 parts to the song, one or two will simply step back. they don't learn music with accompaniment - they look at the music and sing it. it's the old English style of musical training and they're incredible. I saw them for the first time when I was in high school and i've been listening to them since then. my high school choir director was a big fan. seriously. go look up their music online. they're fantastic.
my dad's never seen them perform and the performance center in Green Bay has them for tonight. they're making a big "take your valentine" thing out of it, but i figure i'll just try to ignore it. i'm going with my dad. (lol, my mom told him over lunch yesterday - we were in GB to buy my tiara - that it was his last chance to take his daughter out for valentine's day)
as far as eric, i got a text message from him yesterday, but that was it. but today . . . i knew i'd miss him today and i think he knew it too. mostly because everywhere else is all decked out and making a big deal of it, he knew i'd miss having him. so he sent something. i got home from working at the hospital to find a box by the front door from 1-800 flowers. not unusual - he likes to send flowers. but it was the wrong size. so i opened it up and guess what i found?
it's gaudy and bright, and it made me smile. grin like a fool, actually. it's fuzzy too. :-) so then of course i opened it up and guess what i found inside?
i was absolutely amazed. i guess eric likes his girls fat?? he doesn't want me to fit into my wedding dress?? *snort* and it's sitting next to the computer taunting me right now cause i SO want to try it, but i want to keep it til my mom gets home so she can laugh at it. i'm going to be sooooooo fat. plus, it's too pretty to eat.
i still miss eric. it doesn't really feel like valentine's day to me. it's just another day. but i still had to point out that eric is absolutely amazing. he always finds ways to get to me. i'm damn lucky. a lucky girl.
