my own private valentine's day

last night i left work a little after 7:00, picked up my dry cleaning, and made quick stops at blockbuster and the grocery store. i went home, turned on hbo, and watch sex and the city while i cooked dinner. i also enjoyed french bread with tomato tapenade (thanks to my mwa ha ha faux-french friend) and a glass of delicious french cote d'aix red wine. after dinner, it was nice enough outside for me to sit on my balcony and read for an hour and a half. when it started to get a bit chilly, i came back inside and finished my book in the comfort of my papasan chair with two fuzzy pillows.

so all in all, it was a lovely little v-day for me, by me. who needs a valentine? :)

so now it's 3:00 on a saturday afternoon and guess where i am? that's right...work! this week should add up to 56 hours, including the 4 hours i expect to be here today (meaning 2 hours longer, seeing as how becca and i came in at 1:00 after a lovely lunch at mediterraneano's). but i really don't mind being here, actually. in fact, it's sort of nice in a strange way to be able to get up at a leisurely hour, bum around for a little bit, eat, and then finally head to work when i feel like it. and besides, we have monday off for president's day, so i'll still have my lovely weekend...it'll just be on sunday/monday instead.

so that's that.
