appreciation
When I got home last night in what could be considered a bit of a distraught state, nminusone tried to convince me that things really aren't as bad as all that (with mixed success, granted, but he did try), indulged me in my desire to go get a quesadilla from California Tortilla even though it was earlier than he'd normally want to eat dinner, and later that night he went back out to the store so he could make me chocolate chip cookies while I napped under a blanket on the couch.
