A weekend spent with my Valentine: Priceless

Well, I got back from visiting with my girlfriend yesterday; as you can see, it was a bit on the expensive side. Still, I think it was worth it to spend time with her, and I’ll just have to try to keep the expenses down a bit next time. The gas is pretty much a requirement, but everything else could be cut back. (Well…the clay and other items we got from M & M were technically her Valentine’s gift; it’s part of the joys of dating a girl who’s studying sculpting in college.) Hopefully, my next trip (the first week of March) will be a bit more under control.

Anyway, Happy Post-Valentine’s day to everyone, and I hope the rest of February treats you all well! (Also, I highly recommend you see Coraline; it’s a great movie, delightfully creepy with just a touch of humor. Definitely a great date movie, if your date doesn’t mind something a bit odd and sometimes creepy)
