Valentines Day

Though, I still think Valentines Day is kind of silly, I had made Karl come visit this week so we could do something fun. I knew he didnt have any money so I planned on taking him to the aquarium. It was almost 50 degrees in Boston today! Perfect dress with a jacket weather and we even got ice cream and ate it outside.

I got pink sprinkles on mine because I had seen a little girl eating some as I walked into Quincy Market and thought they looked really good, plus, theyre bright like my hair so why not. The ice cream was good, but that was the smallest one they had to go in a cone...which is kind of ridiculous and I ended up throwing part of it away, I really just wanted to eat the cone. It was good, but not worth 7$, why would anyone want to pay that much for soft serve ice cream?

The aquarium had the biggest lobster I had ever seen in my whole life, he was fantastic. I overheard the lady in the aquarium saying that when a lobster changes shells it eats its old shell in order to help keep the new shell healthy, but she said it isnt like a snake that just sheds its skin. It sounds weird, I need to google it. I was always under the opinion that their shell grew with them. Some lobster fan I am, huh? All I could picture was a lobster walking around with no shell on, it would look so weird/gross.

I dont know how well you can see him, but thats him above my head...just to give you an idea of how big he really is.

Karl was a sweetheart and took me out to dinner. We went to dennys. There was no one there, seriously, who goes to dennys on vday? its like the least romantic place ever and everyone has the impression that vday should be special and go out to eat somewhere nice/expensive. Well, luckily for Karl im not that kind of girl and I love dennys. I know, weird.

We came home and took a long nap, dispite my efforts towards waking him up a million times hes still asleep which sucks for him seeing as he was supposed to do laundry tonight. I havent even given him his gift yet, i got him a bag of the new pizza flavored doritos and some reeses. I couldnt give it to him this morning because I didnt have time to fill out the card. Its kind of a silly gift, but I know he'll love it.

Im going to be so bummed tomorrow when he leaves, but at least we're going to florida in less than a month and I get to look forward to that!
