Valentine's Day Update
I had a pretty nice Valentine's Day yesterday. I was worried that like most Valentine's Days of the past, it would just be another sad day ... I (against my better judgement) have such high hopes for holidays ... as if there is some Disney magic ... some pixie dust waiting to be sprinkled on to my mundane little day to put the hopeful spirit into me. Though (realistically) it never happens quite that way, it's nice when there is something more than just "pass the peas".
Dennis picked me up from work. We then went to a nice, low key but expensive Greek place (owned and operated by the previous owner/operator of the Green Leaf Cafe). We had a nice meal by candle light. The humus was awesome ... the food was just over flowing from the plate. It was really good.
He also gave me a really sweet and genuine card with a heart shaped box of chocolates. We came home, snuggled and drank a bottle of wine with our chocolates. That was nice. I think we even passed out early even though the combination of wine and chocolate proved to be a bit of a disaster. *eek*
All in all, it was a nice night. Ah ... restful and full of eating which you know ... I enjoy doing.
Today is alright. I got up on time but was really cranky because Dennis wasn't sleeping well so I wasn't sleeping well either. Then Satan Kitty was all over me ... then the alarm kept going off. Aunt Flo being in town for a visit (she just arrived this morning) sure didn't help. I pulled one some vaguely matching clothes and put some some vaguely matching makeup and managed to drag my self out of the house to get to work. I think I probably look terrible because my boss stopped to ask if I was feeling alright and looked a bit concerned. I usually look pretty good for work but I really just feel tired ... my eyes are bothering me. Blah blah blah.
Speaking of eyes, know any good eye doctors? I need to make an eye appointment ... if I can the same day as my "well woman" appointment. Kill two appointments with one stone ... ya know. I need to find out what is up with the floaters on my eyes and why they're behaving oddly.
Ok well ... I'm crampy and I have stuff to do. But all in all things are alright. Yay.
