Valentines Day Report

It's difficult to surprise your Sweetie when she's at home and you are at work.   Sometimes it takes the obvious.   ...like telling her to stand there while you go out to the garage and come back with roses, chocolate and a bunch of balloons bumping in after you.

Then there is the secret, though obvious, signing of the cards.

Funny thing though...  I got Juli a card that featured two people walking on the beach.  She got me the same card.

We played computer games throughout the afternoon.  Then we drove to Anthony's at Gig Harbor.   Good thing I made the reservation LAST month.  We waited for about 15 minutes to get seated and then for over an hour to get out food.   They were slammed. That's okay though.   We entertained each other.    No Halibut for me.   It wasn't on the menu.  I had salmon, which was good, and Juli had her Fillet Mignon.  Though they ran out of garlic mashed potatoes so they loaded up Juli with saffron rice.  I got the Potatoes.  Odd, but we would prefer it the other way around, so we re-plated out own meal.

A little wine, some toasting, Irish Cream Chocolate Mousse.   A couple did the "one knee" ceremony at the next table.  ...aaahhhhh...

I remembered miko2 's toast at our wedding.   "May you find a house big enough for all of Juli's books and for three cats who don't like each other."

Juli had some gifts for me when I got home.   Stargate season 1 & 2, and "The Ark Of Truth".

That was the day that was.
