Happy Valentine's Day!

As I signed the credit card slip at the end of the night, a realization rushed over me.  He never would have taken me to a place like this.  He never would have been willing to spend this kind of money on a dinner out, not because we didn't have the money but because it wasn't important to him.  I have really leveled up.  I may make less money than him but I have actually raised my standard of living.  I never would have believed it if you had told me I would do that a year and a half ago.

Tonight was so fun.  The food and drinks were amazing.  The atmosphere was unique.  The peace and wonder I felt were priceless.  And I bought myself flowers on the way home.

My only complaint is that my date (myself) was terribly unskilled with her chopsticks!  

Happy Valentine's Day (a few days early) to me!  The love I have been pouring into myself has revitalized me in a way I couldn't ever have imagined.
