Valentine's Eve, and I got let out of work early by the boss - this has never happened before! She has sai she'd get her own back though...
The show was hilarious! Best use of the word porn in a song, EVER!
The hotel room had been upgraded in secret, so we had an amazing view across the city! At night, all of the spires were either silhouetted or lit. The streets were full with the ramble of traffic, as busy at night as in the daytime. Daylight exposed the numerous gems of architecture strewn across the cityscape.
Valentine's was good. We had a lie-in in our massive, comfortable bed. We only used a small fraction of it in the night which seemed a bit wasteful, so decided to rectify that. Bloody silky sheets and the fact they'd not quite pushed the smaller beds together fully made it nigh on impossible...
We weren't going to, but as it's the first (only in my case) time that it's counted for something, we both marked the day with a card swap. His was very slushy, but hugely appreciated nonetheless. He also got me a beautiful wooden box with handmade chocolate roses in it. To last longer than a real rose, apparently... Yeah, right!
We checked out and headed straight to the party. We rocked up and I changed to fit in with the women - hey, even the manly men had pink sparkles... It was so good to catch up with familiar faces - some I hadn't seen in many years. There was Pass-the-Parcel, plus balloons, bubbles, party bags, jelly and ice cream - full kids party for people over the age of 25! 50 cupcakes disappeared. I brought home 6, and one wasn't even mine!
The journey home was okay and we picked up a Chinese takeaway, but the girl next door was once again parked in front of my garage on our return... I sent her a polite yet incredibly passive aggressive text message yesterday morning to say that when I said Friday to Monday I meant Friday to Monday, not Friday to Saturday night. Also that she can have the spot this coming weekend as neither of us are here, and I'll be letting her know when a weekend is actually free...
We ate Chinese food. Tidied. Watched some TV. Went to bed, and made full use of both the space and the fact the sheets were definitely not satin-like.
