Pre-Valentine's Day Stuff

Ahhhh! So my boyfriend surprised me at work with roses for Valentine's Day yesterday (yes I realize Valentine's Day is on Monday) and boy was I flustered.  He asked me if I was on a call and I was so flustered I almost thought I was still on one...ha ha!  Thankfully I had just gotten done with the call :) 

I realize they are just roses to people, but the thought, the surprise element, the guy...that's what makes it mean so much more than "just roses".  I really like them a lot, and I will have to clean my desk and figure out where they should go on Monday.

Yesterday was awesome at work because after he had just dropped off the flowers we had a power outtage...twice, the first one lasted a minute and the power tried to go back on and then the second time it was just gone.  My boyfriend texted me that they were having power outtages all over Fargo so it wasn't just us.

My friends and I waited around and talked to one another until they finally let us all go at 3pm.  I was so excited because that was three hours I didn't have to work!  I just went home and took a nap and waited till the boyfriend got up from his nap.

I went over to his apartment at 6 and brought his present with so that on Monday I wouldn't have to lug it around before dinner or have it sit in my car.

He was mentioning to me that his roommate and his roommate's friend wanted us to all play cribbage...on his blah traveling cribbage board.  I thought to myself..."what an opportune moment to give him his gift", and so I told him that he just had to open it then.  I really wanted us to all play on his NEW cribbage board. 

So he opened it, and loved it.  He had guessed it right all along that little stinker!  It was great to see how much he loved it and everyone was just impressed with the gift so that was an added bonus.

Ah, so the boyfriend and I had a great night on our own yesterday.  Don't get me wrong I love hanging out with our/his friends but sometimes it is just nice to have some alone time.

We picked up food from Bdubs and rented a movie.  Just a nice, simple night with my man.  Ended up falling asleep during the movie but it was still fun.  We ended the night with cribbage and I won (for once, ha) and then headed off to bed.

A great, great, Saturday!
