Conversation with me and Mr. M last night:
me: Did you get my text message?
him: No.
me: Really?
him: not yet
me: I sent it to you around 8 while I was in that meeting.
him: What was it about?
me: about making plans for V day.
him: what day?
me: V Day
him: D Day?
me: V Day, V Day
him: What are you talking about?
me: V Day …in February… it’s on Sunday this year.
him: Was that what your meeting was about?
me: No, it just occurred to me that you would need to ask your mom to keep the boys so we could do something.
him: Oh. It’s on Sunday?
…
D-Day? Seriously? Come on…
But it’s not very romantic if I take time out – during a meeting – to send a text message about making plans for V-Day, hmm?
Then again, what is my relationship coming to if Mr. M doesn’t have a clue what I mean when I ask about V-Day?
Oh well…. At least February is coming… remember that monthly mission? I think we need it.
What are you doing for Valentine’s Day?
Find yourself… keeping it real.
