Valentine's Day

It is raining on Valentine's Day. It is 3:50pm and I havent gotten any flowers. My husband didnt take me out to lunch. When he told me a week ago that he was going to have today off he implied he might come by for a valentines lunch. Well, no lunch, had to order in because a Taylor finished my pizza, no flowers, no surprises. I think all women as a general rule like to be romanced. In addition I think all women would love getting flowers at work to show off, especially since I work more hours than I am awake at home. But alas, it seems so much of the excitment in life has deflated.

The funny thing is, it truly is the little things in life that make it worthwhile. A small bouqet of flowers dropped off at my office on valentine's day, perhaps a card waiting for me when I wake up. J, it isnt about what you spend, it is the thought and I MEAN THAT. I just want a little romantic thought on Valentines Day. Spending a lot of money doesnt substitute for romanticism. In fact spending a lot of money without putting any romantic thought into is worse than no jesture at all.
