Happy V Day to Me

Ah, spending Valentine's alone. Greg works tonight, so I planned on not celebrating and then out of the blue he was told he could come home 4 hours early (8 pm) since he had to go in 4 hours early today. YES!!! What a surprise! I buy steaks, dip strawberries in chocolate and grab the sparkling cider that's just been sitting around, waiting for a reason to come out. Somehow, the house and kitchen get COMPLETELY clean and I'm looking pretty good too. My sweet babe is all the sudden taking naps that are longer than a 1/2 hour! That hasn't happened in atleast a week. I was beginning to lose hope and then she took 2 good ones in a row! YES!!! So 9 pm rolls around and I think, "Oh no! What if he eats before he comes home!" So I text him and he responds that he's going to be really late tonight. Darnit! The unpredictability of the job. It just happens. I want to say it happens SOMETIMES, but really it happens ALL THE TIME. I just plan on him being 4 hours late and then I'm only pleasantly surprised. Well, I cooked my steak and I gotta say, it was the best steak I EVER cooked. YUM. Marinated and oh so tender. I read up on the best way to cook beef and it paid off! I also made my mashed potatoes, which I haven't had in MONTHS, since I'm trying to decrease my waistline. Oh well. I just wish he were home. Or I wish it wasn't Valentine's Day and I could call someone so I wouldn't feel so lonely. But everyone else is with their man so I'm pretty sure they don't feel like chatting with ME on today of all days. Oh well. Oh, I ate too much. I feel sick. I wish I had cable and could have watched The Bachelor. Then nothing would be wrong! But I have to watch it tomorrow, online. Oh man, I feel like I'm gonna barf.
