Within the next 24 hours, business will be booming for flower shops, cake shops, and courier services. Hotels will be fully booked, and restaurants will be buzzing with dating/married/soon-to-be couples.
I won't be part of the Valentine crowd tomorrow, though. Come to think of it, if my husband was here, we wouldn't be joining the bandwagon, either. My husband doesn't like crowded restaurants, and just the thought of having to wait for seats ticks him off.
For the past nine years (wow, we've really been together this long?!), Valentines for us would be dinner at home (pizza delivery or Chinese takeout) plus chocolate cake from Mer-nel's (home of the best chocolate cake ever!) for dessert. Then perhaps a DVD movie, an NBA game, or a UFC match on the telly after.
Vday 2007, with my favorite chocolate cake. And LOL at my bangs. :) |
And instead of wasting paper on a love letter, he'd rather send me a text message or profess his undying love via email. How's that for being a techie and an environmentalist in one? Haha!
Needless to say, I love my husband like crazy, and I still have a huge crush on him, lol. And yes, I miss him to bits. If only flying to Seoul (you land at Incheon airport, of course) was as easy as getting on a plane to Jeju, I'd be there before you could even say Skin 79 Hot Pink Super Plus Triple Function Beblesh Balm.
If you're reading this Daddy, I know you're smiling in giddiness, bwahahaha! I love you!
Sarangheyo! Nomu nomu nomu bogoshippu!
(That's 'I love you' and 'I miss you very very very much in Korean. No, my husband is not Korean. Haha!)

You two are so cute! hehehe... That's sweet of him. I am like you in some sort because I ask my husband to get me anything that I can use for the kitchen. His been getting me things like breadmaker, steamer, etc. Anything that not just me can benifit, but all of us. :) Sweet! :) Happy Valentine's Day!

ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day! Same here, we don't give flowers or go to fancy dinners. Love letters pen-and-paper way is gone now, too, with the advent of emails as well! But the love is always strong and mighty even without the presents. :D Long distance is tough, but the kind you have will always last! :)
Visiting for BPC!

What a sweet Valentine message for your husband! Now that I'm seeing a picture of him here, I agree with you when you said in one of your previous posts that your son looks exactly like your husband. Here's my MM entry:http://www.pensivethoughts.com/2012/02/my-little-speller.html
