Happy Anniversary, Deena and DH!

Thanks Fred, and Maria! (I took too long!) and Andi!

The alternate plans went reasonably well. Aidan refused to eat meat, so was served pasta, so Kara decided she'd have pasta too, and then she told a long involved story, and then demanded that we make up alternate endings to roses are red, getting increasingly upset until I supplied her with the proper ending. THEN was told it had been a quiz all along. Then chattered on about her friends, and her "rescue center" play that she would have to start all over after dinner (though she hadn't done her valentines yet nor should it be time for bed and we're very mean). Aidan didn't want to sit in his chair, and ran around the table with spaghetti sauce hands, tickling everyone, "Are you ticklin' me? Are You? Ticklin? Me?" It's so adorable to hear him say it and he says it every time he tickles someone because I said it to him the first time I figured out what he was doing. Kara decided that it's "my and Aidan's anniversary too" (she's often planning to marry him) and said that she TOLD me not to marry a dragon (Greg, Chinese zodiac) and I really ought to break up with him.

I was tired and my foot hurt, so besides the roast, we just had the potatoes and some corn. No fancy salad, nor steamed green beans, and no dessert, but it went in, was tasty, and we were all pretty normal and therefore happy.

Now I'm trying to get some work done before I have to turn in my time tomorrow.

Aww. Kara playing eharmony!

Thanks, Andi!

Yays all around! Deena, it sounds like a perfectly pleasant evening as guest stars in the "Kara and Aidan Show." DJ, I'm glad it worked out.

DH did something very similar to what Mr. Jayne did. We're both sick, but he's been going to work while I'm working from home. He leaves tomorrow bright and early for Tampa, and he always gets distracted when he travels.

So he walks into the house at 6:30, sees my card on the kitchen island, and nonchalantly says, "I didn't have time to get you a card today." WTF? He passes a CVS and a grocery store in our frakkin' development, and I tell him such. I suppose I was a bit pissy about it, but I was hurt. I managed to get him a card while I was sick (we don't do presents), yet he dropped the ball. Next thing I know, he's storming out of the house and walks back in 15 minutes later with a dozen roses, a stuffed dog that says "I Woof You," a box of chocolates, and a card. Oh, and he didn't obviously read the card because it was one you give your wife WHEN THE GODDAMNED KIDS FINALLY LEAVE THE HOUSE.

So I now feel like a chore. Yeah. It kinda sucks.

sorry, love.

sorry that some people didn't pay attention and happy anniversary to deena and her DH

we don't usually go out on Valentine's day ( very much a card day, because it is fun ( helps that Matt is the mushy one) ) . We went out to a local resaturant that is owned by friends. They have had some struggles getting going. They have found the chef - salmon tartar wrapped in dill crepes ( honestly, everything else could have sucked and I would have been happy) . I had cornish game hen infused with lavender and mustard ( OH MY GOD good) Matt had melt in you mouth ahi. dark chocolate creme bruele. seriously one of my top ten best meals.

Thanks, Vortex. What are you still doing up? Is the uni closed again tomorrow?

beth, that meal sounds scrumptious. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Happy Anniversary, Deena!

Where the chicken serves some random symbolic purpose? Yeah. Also, the one with Ben. So an episode will lots of tortured Ackles.

Mmm, symbolic fricassee...

Mmmm, Ben. So pretty and so screwed up. Pretty and tortured are quite the OTP for me.

After I write entirely self-indulgent Dean/Ellen effed up PWP of pain, 'k?

Oh, please, finish this. I mean, do what you need to do for yourself, of course. (HMOGHMOGHMOG Want!)

Finally, she sort of salutes and says proudly, "Tinkerbell!"

dead.

but I guess other people are not privy to your thoughts

And really? Thank god for this. Because I am not a nice person inside my head and I like to fool people. Sometimes.

In fact these descriptions just reminded me of a girl I used to know and I was thinking all sorts of catty things about her. But no one knows because it was all in my head. Until I just typed it. But you won't tell, right?

Sorry about the rough V day, Maria.

Oh, please, finish this. I mean, do what you need to do for yourself, of course. (HMOGHMOGHMOG Want!)

I AM TRYING!!!
