Creaking

I took a bit of a break from blogging and now I sort of lost track where I was. Today was Valentine's Day and it was a up and down kind of day. It started out kind of crappy because Jason had to leave first thing. That was sad and I sort of wished he could stay mostly permanently. I miss having friends to hang out with, but I'm sure he missed his bed more (sofa beds being what they are). We had an absolutely great time while he was here though and I hope he will think about coming back soon. There's a lot more ocean out there! After Roland left with Jason to take him to the airport I cleaned up the apartment a bit. Mostly my scuba gear that I was waiting until it was well and truly dry to put away. Now it's pretty much all tucked away and awaiting my next excursion. Then I decided that I wanted to make Roland dinner for Valentine's Day. I prefer baking to cooking and he prefers cooking to baking so he makes me dinner way more than I make him dinner. Now if it's dessert you want, I'm your gal. Anyway, I picked stuffed potatoes which he says is one of his favorites. I think I like the stuffed green peppers better, but he's not a huge fan of green peppers so that probably explains things.

I made my way to the grocery store and got the stuff we didn't have around the house. It was a frustrating trip as everyone seemed intent on parking their carts so that the aisles were completely blocked and then ignoring me as I tried to wait patiently for them to move on. After getting home I couldn't get started right away because it was too early in the day. I just sort of bummed around the house until about 4:00 when I got serious about the cookery. Roland got home around 7:00, with some flowers (awww) and we get got serious about some eating. Dinner was good, but then Roland surprised me with a champagne flute full of pink Jelly Bellies! He knows I love pretty much all the pink flavors so it was perfect. Now he's working on some work and I've been surfing the interwebs and checking out ScubaBoard (with the PW cuddled up next to me). So while the morning was a little on the sad side, the evening turned out to be a nice and relaxing.

I miss Jason all ready.
