valentine

i had a lovely valentine's day. i know just how lucky i am - i was seranaded by my knight in shining armor, swept off to an exclusive dinner with lovely atmosphere, and entertained by an exciting performance of skill.

translation: i got a completely charming e-card from my boo, and went to a basketball game for brats, popcorn, and a victory - those college guys really play! m has been working two jobs for the last month, so my real gift was just being with him for more than an hour over lunch. i know that the time he took was the most precious thing he has right now, and that he shared it with me makes me feel very loved.

plus he's coming over this weekend for dinner and snuggling.

we've been together 5 years, and evey valentine's has been lovely. we've done the whole spectrum of celebrations - making dinner together at home, going to white castle for white linen service (highly recommended for those who usually go to nice restaurants for other occassions), and now going to a great basketball game.

the best part is that Valentine's Day isn't the only day he does special things.

but it is the day i realize it.
