Scary Doll Valentine
Saturday, February 14, 2004
R came over, let himself in and crawled into my bed
around 1 a.m. then drove me to work around 8:30 a.m
I remember when he suggested that he drive me to work on Valentine's
Day. It made me smile because I remember one other time when he
drove me to work because my car was broken and I remember saying to him
when I was getting out of the car that I liked how it felt when he drove
me to work.
At work I passed out conversation heart candies and cat in the hat
valentines to everybody. I also got a little crazy with the heart
stickers everyone got stuck with one or two including my clients other
peoples clients, etc. etc. I started out wearing a red shirt but kept
adding to my outfit throughout the day more heart, more glitter, etc.
By the end of the day the valentine fever had spread so rapidly that one
of the assistants commented on how I looked like a scary doll. One
of those creepy porcelain dolls with the wavy blonde hair with hearts on
the cheeks and a tiny barrette holding a side part.
R picked me up at the end of the day and wore a smirk
when he saw the hearts and glitter on me as I got into the car. I pouted
and said "They called me a scary doll today." Do you like scary
dolls? He just smiled and said yes and waited for me to put my seat belt
on before pulling out of the spot.
When we got to my place he pointed over to the table
where he had a bunch of gifts he made me.
5 yellow sunflower scented votives
5 red/ gingerbread scented votives
6 yellow sunflower scented tea lights
1 large yellow/sunflower scented scalloped pillar
1 large red/gingerbread valentine heart with R and Girl written on it
and 1 large white/almond scented triangle oblique pillar candle
about 12 inches high
(um... did I mention that R's new hobby is making home made candles?)
he also surprised me with a pound and a half of fresh Alaskan King
Crab in my refrigerator along with maraschino cherries and whip cream
for desert! Nice job R. I thanked him and thanked him and
thanked him. He really put a lot of thought into the evening and
it showed.
