My "favorite" was when I was dating my ex a few years ago. We were on and off for years, but we only had one Valentine's day when we were really together. He knew I hated Valentine's day, but I love romance so... I bought him a rose and had it delivered to him.
"What? I thought you hated Valentine's day?!" -him
"I do, but you don't." -me
"Oh well, my mom always told me it was bad luck to celebrate the first Valentine's day after my 21st birthday." -him
Great excuse for not planning anything right?
Unknown, that was a ridiculous thing for him to say!
I did not expect anything and my husband did not disappoint when he came home from work last night with nothing but then he sat down at his computer and wrote me the sweetest little poem. Yes, he did not do the expected, traditional thing but his loving gesture harkened back to the true meaning of the day.
My husband had the great interview that would finally mean getting the job and getting out of here. Then he came home and his friend texted him to say the owners want to hire their relative.
Dinner was nice. My parents made bacon-wrapped shrimp. But basically nothing else about the day was all that great.
