Valentines Day

Normally I would be anti Valentines Day but not this year! I cant remember what Matthew did to have to butter me up, or what, its what he wants.. great! None the less he had the great idea of going to Fort Wayne for Valentines Day! Yeah! I mean considering for the last 9 yrs I think I've been lucky to get a card on this day, I'm ecstatic for him to want to do anything! So we invited my sister and her boyfriend along to join us! It should be a good time! We are going to Hooters for lunch (obviously this was the payoff for such a great evening being planned), then off to the hotel (yes, we are even spending the night!), going to eat dinner somewhere, and then off to Rum Runners (a dueling piano bar). We have been to Rum Runners before (actually for my 30th bday)... its always a good time! :) I just cant believe we are actually celebrating Valentines Day! YAHOOOO! I'm so excited I bought Matt 3 cards! I went crazy!!

But now of course the flip side of this wonderful evening... what to wear! Why is it men look good in anything, mens clothes seem to be cheaper, and of course why do I look like crap in anything I try on?! Oh, and my favorite, why is it when you dont have money you find the perfect shirt, pants, etc.. but the minute you WANT to buy something suddenly you have to settle for Aunt Berta's moo moo from 1950? I'm not even kidding... last night I looked for 3 hrs for something to wear. I guess it would help if I knew what I was looking for. Originally we said we were going to get real dressed up and look all so fabulous. Well, then it turned into nice dress attire (pants), and now I'm thinking screw it jeans will do! Now about the husband... of course he already has a super hot button down, nice dress pants, good butt jeans, and a nice sport jacket that he could choose from... he's set! And all that stuff came from his closet! After 3 hrs of shopping I found 1 shirt that is ok- not hot by any means, no jeans, dress, pants, etc... for $27.50... a shirt I dont even really love for almost $30- thats crap! So tonight is round 2, I'm dragging my sister, and the boys along to HELP ME!! Wish me luck! Who knew so much freakin stress would be involved for a night out on the town?!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!!
