I got home from a rather lousy day of work to find Himself waiting with shortbread, roses, and daffodils. My mood improved immediately. He divided up the roses and daffodils and put them in vases around the house, where they made me happy for several days.



He whisked me away to The Independent for their excellent happy hour (did I mention it had been a lousy day?), and then we went to Campiello's for dinner. There, my taste buds asserted dominance over me, and I became a hopeless slave to the delicious food.

• 06:58 Dear body, waking me up at 3am for no damn reason is *not* a funny April Fools' joke. #
• 06:58 Dear Mother Nature, 10 inches of snow in Spring is not a funny April Fools' joke either. #
• 08:27 Critting somebody else's work--can't really say, "Descent into madness stories are boring unless done *really* well." #
• 09:10 Note to self: It's April Fools Day. Don't click any links. #
• 10:19 Heh. Woot.com is selling random bags of stuff! #
• 10:20 As is my nature, I cannot resist the random. #
• 13:44 At least training somebody else in makes the day go faster. #
• 15:16 Time to vamoose home. Still not sure what we'll be doing to celebrate anniversary tonight. #
• 16:39 Husband brought me roses and daffodils and shortbread! I like anniversaries! :) #
• 21:44 Google's awesome! tinyurl.com/22fkdb (No fear, the link's legit.) #
• 21:47 I was fed the food of the gods. *The Gods*. I might have a tastegasm just remembering it.... #

• 08:20 Heavy snow warning? Nooooo! #
• 10:08 Knee pain + insomniac husband tossing & turning = poor sleep last night and tired Abra today = coffee! #
• 10:30 Salesman 1: If they paid for it, shouldn't we give it to them? Salesman 2: No. #
• 11:55 ::grump:: Could have escaped early, but they're training me in to do all kinds of tech. Which means more work demands. #
• 12:07 Ravenously hungry at lunch after only cereal for breakfast. Clearly, pancakes & French toast & Easter bread have spoilt me. #
• 12:24 Hmm. 7-year wedding anniversary is tomorrow, should probably plan something special. #
• 14:28 I fear this training means they will try to make me work more. Right now, more is not what's needed. Later, maybe. #
• 17:28 I made it home, but it was a wee bit more taxing than usual. #
• 17:51 Phil & I just called each other at the *exact same moment*. We both got the voicemail. #
• 22:13 Watched Black Dahlia. Damn, Hartnett is entirely lickable. Le sigh. He goes on the list with Depp. #
