Don't Make a Fuss About Valentine's Day
Background
My dearest wife is always going on and on and ON about NOT making a fuss over her on Valentine's Day. She repeats that it's the thought that counts.
Well, I put a lot of thought into the gifts from previous February 14ths but she didn't quite take to any of them like I assumed she would. Here's my list - see what you think:
Brand new mop and bucket.
I was thinking it would be fun to see what colour the floor was because I couldn't remember.
Romantic dinner at fast food restaurant.
I was thinking that she might like to go inside for a change instead of fetching dinner at the drive through.
Chocolates left-over from last year's candy box.
I was thinking of how proud she'd be of me for not wasting food. She's been nagging me for years to recycle.
Midnight moped ride through the park.
I was thinking that I'm getting too old to be peddling on the bike.
Dozen roses printed on high quality photo paper. One of my favourites this -
I was thinking these would last a lifetime instead of just a week.
45 second back massage.
I was thinking any longer and she might think I was interested in something else.
Windows 7
I was thinking how proud she would be to be a part of the technology crowd.
