A special Valentine’s Day edition because, ohhhh, I love
Valentine’s Day! I curled my hair, put on a skirt, pulled out the pink heart
necklace my mom made for me…I didn’t do Valentine cards this year… the
disappointment. I didn’t see any at the store that I liked…that’s not true-
there was a great Bieber pack- but I didn’t get them. And then I was going to
bake some kind of special treat to bring in to the office…but was distracted by
The Voice last night on TV. So no valentines and no treats…boo. I did find a
darling card with a frog on it that opened up to tell Brian what a special guy
he is…I’m pretty sure it was meant for an 8-yr old to get from his
grandparents…but I got him some new glow in the dark darts for his nerf gun…so
I’m pretty sure it was appropriate.
Last night The Head and the Heart was on How I Met Your Mother!
Not the actual band, but their song…so cool! Brian recognized it after about
two strums. It wasn’t my favorite HIMYM- though usually the specials- this
being a valentines episode- aren’t, I mean, even the return of Slutty Pumpkin
wasn’t great. But, so cool to hear Rivers and Roads start playing…yay for
them.
And in other wonderful love related news…Governor Gregoire signed
the equal marriage law for Washington! I am so proud of our state for doing the
right thing and caring about equal rights. As of now, the law goes into effect
June 7th, though I think it will likely make its way to the November
ballot…so there is still a bit of a journey. I know everyone has their
particular issues that are important to them, and this one is definitely a huge
one for me. I was surprised at the emotion I felt when it was signed…one of my
co-workers said ‘To think that my kids will not ever know
anything other than we are all the same’…still a long way to go, but important
things take time. So great!
Have a fantastic day…lots and lots of love!
