Geeky Valentine

Ok, so Valentines Day has come and gone, and I didn’t burden my other half with too much mushiness. Being together for 8 years and married for 4, there’s only so much we can do for each other, but I’ve never been one of those peeps who constantly wonder what to get my other half on such occasions, 8 years is enough time to know what they like or don’t like, and as time go by you find out more things that interests them, hence widening the possibilities and knowing them as a person.

I remember on our anniversary when I made MrB a scrapbook of all the times that has been significant to our lives, from our first meeting, to what we had on our first date not just the nauseating romantic odes mind you, but things that we shared and found funny or momentous at the time.

About 3 years ago, 100 days before his birthday I also sent him notes, everyday for 100 days, telling him ALL the things that I love about him, things that made me laugh and also things that we have been through, good or bad. He used to look forward to it everyday though after the 50th note he was starting to complain that his drawer was getting full and it would have looked very unprofessional if he was ever in a meeting and all these little white strips of paper stared to fly off as soon as he opened his drawer.  But I think secretly he loved it, and I know that he STILL have and treasure EVERY single note.

So this Valentines weekend, it was nothing too overly romantic, we go out for meals during the year, buy each other gifts when we can, so we feel that we do not have to make so much effort  just for ONE DAY to show each other how much we care. Instead we went out for a meal on Saturday with my brother-in-law and his wife, which was great because we haven’t done that in a long time, or if I’m right, we haven’t done it EVER, and it’s always great spending time with them.

One thing that he got me though was this, I guess it’s better than the Star Trek Tee that he got me last week.

I <3 my geek. =)
