Neighborhood Watch

Happy Valentine’s Day To Me

February 14, 2009

I was dreading today. It is Valentine’s Day and it seems to weird to be excited about Valentine’s day when my Valentine happens to be 1,400 miles away. Very early this morning - and by very early I mean just after 9am – there was a knock at my door. It was a delivery man and he [...]
