A new church visit, lunch at yogurtland (YUM!) and a Costco-membership later, we went home and watched the Olympics while Jon grilled filet mignon and potatoes. Perfect.
I also took a midterm that I didn't do so hot on, but I don't care anymore about these things, so it didn't ruin my day one bit.
I gave Jon a card with the following poem hastily scrawled on it. I hate to brag, but I really do own the best husband.
Houses of Dreams
Sara Teasdale
You took my empty dreams
and filled them every one
With tenderness and nobleness,
April and the sun
The old empty dreams
where my thoughts would throng
Are far too full of happiness
to even hold a song
Oh, the empty dreams were dim
and the empty dreams were wide
They were sweet and shadowy houses
where my thoughts could hide
But you took my dreams away
and you made them all come true
My thoughts have no place now to play
and nothing now to do.

The old empty dreams
where my thoughts would throng
Are far too full of happiness
to even hold a song
Oh, the empty dreams were dim
and the empty dreams were wide
They were sweet and shadowy houses
where my thoughts could hide
But you took my dreams away
and you made them all come true
My thoughts have no place now to play
and nothing now to do.
Thank you, Jon, for the best and happiest two and a half years of my life!

That IS a happy valentine's day. Will there be any cinnamon rolls left in the fridge on Thursday?
