In the life of this married women nothing could be greater than a day spent with Tom basking in the joy, love and wonder of my marriage. Waking up late is great, eating leftover Cornucopia with our coffee is wonderful, lying on the couch watching The West Wing under a big down blanket, going to St. Vinny's and buying the things we really wanted, ordering pizza and fixing G&Ts and ending the night off with a cigar, a walk around the block, and some more couch-time is sublime. Lest you think we live like two merry bachelors I'll inform you that last night I put on a pink satin skirt (and my dirty old red sneakers) and went out to a movie and a late dinner with my Valentine AND co-purchased a heart-shaped box of chocolates (that we ate with our breakfast this morning)... ok that didn't sound that impressive either.
Tom wants to know if I'm giving away all our secrets. I told him even if I did you wouldn't believe them. So I leave you with but the bare facts of our life, but try to imagine how they are transformed when you dress them in all the love and beauty you could dream of on Earth - and that's what it's like with us.
I return to my life and love - Happy Valentine's Day.
