Valentine's Day is Today and Oops, I'm Not Prepared. Time for Last Minute Shopping!

By Zonk 2 min read

Summary

It’s Valentine’s Day and I am not prepared, which is probably not something I should admit on camera for the historical archive, but that’s how it goes with Valentine’s Day and me. I don’t feel too guilty, though, because Rachel said she was doing the exact same thing for me on her way home from the doctor’s office, so we’re loving each other equally today. I’m not great at this holiday, so I grabbed my son Dylan, who is the love doctor of the family. He already has his special lady and his gifts all set, and he just needed a few supplies for his Valentine’s Day picnic.

We dropped Megan off at dance and then hit the Valentine’s Day hub of Simi Valley, the grocery store. I came away with frosting, Rolos and a few other treats, plus some chocolate covered strawberries chilling in the fridge. Rachel eats frosting straight out of the tube, which she told me about when we met, and I thought she was kidding. We like to give each other diabetes whenever possible. At home I showed off the Lego flowers that we can actually keep alive, and my last-minute haul.

Then Rachel showed up with a bag and a card for me, and she totally beat me at last-minute gifts. What I really want for Valentine’s Day is more time with my wife, because I’m a better and happier person when I’m with her. I’m hoping vlogging gets us out more, to the beach and places like Disneyland, with my best partner along. I’ve officially declared this the last of my last-minute Valentine’s Days, which probably just means I’ll shop the day before.
