Come out for a GOOD TIME

Sex Offenders

I checked, there are two within a 5 block radius from the apt. Check out the TL though, its madness:

What-the-fck? Sacramento has a cupcake bakery NOW? NOW after I have moved…. damn Sacto one step behind the game every time. Regardless of it all, I miss you Natomas.

I get a warm sense of nostalgia whenever I think about our time in the nine-sixteen.

Valentines Day = any other day

You know what… I don’t expect romance or lavish gifts, but I’d like to think I’m worth some kind of effort. I’m not trying to bash on the man, maybe just a little, but men in general. Because generally–they have a tendency to disappoint us (women). I hear it a lot, men just aren’t good at doing that stuff.

But seriously? Now, in a time when absolutely anything can be researched, they can’t just google “romantic ideas/dates” and see wtf comes up?

Please. Give me a break.

Wednesday night I baked red velvet cupcakes and frosting from scratch, just for the man. I even bought the wine we were supposed to drink tonight, he forgot to buy it. Today my day consisted of me going out of my way to work to go get the man a box of chocolates at Sees and I went through my day at work. The man contacts me letting me know he’ll be home earlier because he’s not feeling so well (and its true, he’s had a cold this whole week). I didn’t have high hopes but in the back of my mind I was really wishing he was beating me home to get some tulips and a vase (we don’t have any here yet). I get home, he’s sleeping on the futon in the living room. I wake him up to give him his chocolates. I look around, the house is empty, no vase and no flowers. I put it on blast, because I thought he had something up his sleeves. No, he didn’t.

We go to dinner to a restaurant I picked in the first place. I ask him about after, he says he has nothing planned (I guess thats ok, we’re trying to save cash). We have a good conversation, but its like any other night. We walk home for the dessert I baked and the chocolate I bought. He fell asleep at 9:30pm and has been asleep since.

He did buy me a gift online, a poster I’ve wanted since last fall, its not a Valentines type of gift, but its ok.

He always points out I have a ring on my finger, but its not fair, just because I have it doesn’t mean we go stale like chips.

I do admit, sometimes I am a very hard person to please. I mastermind plans and I have backup plans, its easy for me, my mind is accustomed to it. I know where to go, where to eat, and if I don’t know then I research meticulously.

Is that really hard for a guy to do? IS IT REALLY?

If a person is worth it, you go the extra mile. You research recipes for cupcakes, you buy ingredients and tools to bake them, and you are late to work because you bought them chocolates cause it was the only time the store was open.

You don’t go stale like chips.

I always hated Valentines, stufidassfkingday.

Thats it…I can’t take it, I wish I started dancing earlier in life.

I’m going to look for a hip hop-jazz class.

I’m voting Jabbawockeez on America’s Best Dance Crew, you should too.

Jeff is going to sing this for me at our wedding, my special request.

P.S. I really am doing work.

He didn’t like my last song…

Can you believe that? So now I’m mad, and I dedicate this song to him (switch “her” to “him,” “she” to “he,” “girl” to “boy,” etc. etc):

The lyrics are so real “Somebody tell me…. why I work so hard for yooooouuuuuu?”

I have GREAT taste in music.

Today, on Valentines Day, I dedicated this to my sweathart, Jepperox.

Listen deep. Its how I feel.
