I won’t be going out for Valentine’s Day tonight, because my Helvetican works. Instead, we’ll go out to dinner on Thursday, when he’s off. It’ll be more like a Valentine’s Week.
He gave my Valentine’s present to me yesterday, so I could enjoy it a little early.
New pajamas! Silky, microfibery, pink and brown mini floral, comfy, perfect-fitting jammies!
And candy, but not your basic box of chocolates. No. He went for the vintage candies that are hard to find now, like Razzles and Fizzies drink tablets.
And, finally, a new vintage metal sign for my office. It’ll keep Rosie the Riveter company on the wall.
Now, none of this is classically romantic, but oh, be still my heart. The man knows me. And rather than grab a quick and easy bouquet of roses as he leaves work today, he spent the time to go find me really cool stuff that he knew I’d appreciate.
How will I reciprocate? With something he’d never expect. I’m sending him flowers at work! What gift would your honey give you to show that they really know you?
