Valentines Day

February 14. It was the first valentines day I had ever had with a girlfriend. About a week before I started thinking of what to do. As I said I didn't have much of an idea of what I should do because it was my first valentines day being in a relationship. It took me a while to come up with something (plus a few helpful suggestions from dad) but I finally had something planned a few days before.

At around 4-4:45 I started setting everything up before I picked her up at 5:20. We would've had school but there was a ton of snow. I wore Jeans, a dress shirt and I managed to find a suitable tie with the cuffs unbuttoned, sleeves rolled up and not tucked in, (to my fathers somewhat discontent.) ;) I set up a table and two chairs in the sunroom and hid the card and chocolates in places to be revealed to her after dinner. Afterwards, my mom and I picked her up (as usual she looking great and me looking less than great.) She gave me a valentines day cookie and we endured the awkward, still having to be driven around my your mom, car trip and hung out at my house till Mom came back with the Chinese food.

We talked and ate there while the sun set beside us through the windows until it was time for the movie. (And yes, less than sneaky photos were taken by mom.) We were dropped off at Berkley Plaza and I bought the tickets for Winter's Tale. It was a romance/drama movie with angels and demons and all that and it was pretty good but that's a different blog. At around 9:30 we went back to my house for her things and said goodbye at her house. At home I took our movie tickets and put them inside a letter she had once given me, still smiling like a fool, and went to bed. The next day at breakfast I had a very, very good cookie.

I hope you had a good time Molly, I did. Bye.
