Feb. 14th, 2004 02:22 amFor the first time since we moved in, the long counter in the computer room is empty. Stacks of CDs have been sorted, put in binders and the cases have been tucked away in a drawer and two entire bags full of them were even thrown away. I'm so happy.
M brought me candy and ice cream tonight for Valentine's Day. We've decided that we want to do something special and nice, but we're not really all that sure what that might entail. I'm beginning to suspect that steak with a mushroom and red wine sauce is in my immediate future. I might even go all out and scrounge up a tablecloth. Does it surprise anyone that we don't really celebrate Valentine's Day? It seems so.. non-us, but we don't really get enthused over it too much. Funny.
My cousin wrecked her car day before yesterday, but both she and the baby (she's six weeks pregnant) are fine, thank goodness. M went with my dad and uncle today to pick up her car. She just had a wreck last year.. if I had more time, I'd look it up and link to it. She was mildly injured last time, but much luckier this time. Mom called to let me know when we were in Lexington shopping Wednesday--the weird thing is that they almost saw it happen. Her and Dad were sitting at McDonald's when they noticed the wreck outside. This led to a very frantic mother rushing across the road and then being restrained by my dad at the cop's request. Last time she wasn't wearing her seat belt--I think this time she had at least learned her lesson. It was her fault, though, and they only had liability on the car.. so not so great for them to have to replace the car. :)
Anyway, it's bedtime so I'd better skedaddle--M is very whiney when he's ready to go to bed before me. :)
