    All,

    I did not mean to sound so morose on such a romantic day, the end of 2007 and beginning of the New Year has not been so good to me. However, I must thank everyone for helping me to discover the kilted way and the great bunch of people that choose to wear kilts.

    Chris

    Not much going on today...don't get paid until tomorrow.
    And our work schedules aren't the best to see much of each other the last 24 hrs, but last night before I headed out the door for the late shift, I discovered a couple heart shaped chocolates in my lunch box.
    I asked who put them in there (my wife or 8 yr old daughter) & my wife said "you weren't suppose to discover those until you were at work!"
    I told her I'd act surprised when I opened my lunch box...
    Anyhow, I'm returning the favor when she gets home shortly with some creamy mouth melting chocolate mints

    Eh, I sent the girlfriend some flowers as she has been really great to me. My car breaks down and she gets up early to pick me up from work, lets me borrow her car so I can get to school, all in all she is a great gal! I didnt do much else that that as I had to work on a resume and essay for an upcoming internship! The girlfriend helped me with that too. Its good to have someone around with a bachelors in tech writing! We might do dinner tonight.

    Mrs McGurk and I went out to a Punjab restauraunt, the same one we went to 4 years ago on our very first valentines day, Also, just like 4 years ago, we went to the theater afterwards to see a musical, this time it was to see Cats.

    I bought her a necklace in white gold and pink sapphire which matches her wedding ring, I also presented her with a Bouqette of red roses, to which I added a single yellow rose. I would have got a dozen yellow roses, for their meaning, but seeing as Valentines is largely a commercial creation these days, I went with the more commonly recognized red roses.

    People I was telling what I was up to said 'Aww, its nice to see romance isnt dead.' Well, its very nearly dead, considering EVERYONE other then the florest needed the yellow rose explained to them.

    I helped cook for 76 people I am dead-dog tired. One guy wanted his tuna sushimi well done. So he got it well done. He raved about it. Said it was the best he had ever had. I am thinking to myself "Dude, I just made you burnt fish."

    I only got one Valentine from my niece. Here it is:

    When you are sad -- I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.

    When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.

    When you smile -- I will know you are plotting something that I must be involved in.

    When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get.

    When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much Worse it could be until you quit whining.

    When you are confused -- I will use little words.

    When you are sick -- Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever you have.

    When you fall -- I will point and laugh at your clumsy ***.

    This is my oath.... I pledge it to the end. "Why?" you may ask; "because you are my friend".

    Friendship is like peeing your pants,
    everyone can see it,
    But only you can feel the true warmth.
    Animo non astutia

    What did I do?
    I woke up to a phone call from my Yeti, like every day.
    I went to class like every day, then I went about life as usual, talking to my dear Yeti online, ignoring homework, goofing off on the internet while I knit, spinning some more pretty yarn.
    Then I went to dinner and after that I had a long therapy talk with a friend in need, now he's calling me mama and expects chocolate and tea every time he comes to visit.
    Then I spent the rest of my evening talking to my Yeti and fell asleep, because even though we can't be in the same place very often I still start and finish my day with his Voice in my ears.

    My wife ate dinner at her parents before i got home from work. Both the kids are sick, so NATURALLY they woke up before anything could happen after hours.

    sigh.
