I also love Valentines Day because when I was eleven I had a Valentines party. I invited some of my friends over and we decorated our own cupcakes with red, white and pink sprinkles, and candy hearts. Back when they said "be mine," and, "true love." Now they say, "tweet me," and "text me." Lame.
We also played games that I found out of my American Girl magazine. I worshiped that magazine.
So Valentines Day for me has always been more than just a day you celebrate because you're in a relationship with someone. It is a nice perk however! This year Gerald still got me something even though he's in Afghanistan. How sweet. Now for those of you who don't really know G, he is extremely cheesy. Cheese to the max, is what I always say. He also loves the cliche lines and the cheesier the better. What a goober. I love it. So knowing that, this years gift was not out of the ordinary. Behold.....the hoodie-footie snuggle suit.
Now, I never remembered having footie pajamas when I was a kid, so having them as an adult is different. I don't know what to do with it....I also feel like the kid in the Christmas story when he wears the bunny suit, so I call this the "bunnie snuggie." The feet zip off and it has a hood. Not sure why it has a hood, but I've only had it for 2 nights so maybe the reasoning for the hood will present itself soon. It's really soft and warm, but sometimes too warm. Some people have suggested that I wear it camping, so it will get some extra good usage from that on those cold nights. Gerald suggested that I stuff it with newspaper and act like it's a real person....at least if I do that I'll get to ride in the carpool lane! ;) and freak some people out when I take it to the movies, ya know, the usual.
I love you Gerald! Happy Valentine's Day!
Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
