Thoughts From The Dollhouse: The Love Embrace of the Universe

Valentines Day was an A+ day for both Frashleys and their dear friend Ekta. It is our understanding that our friend Papa Ridgeback also had a good Valentines Day.

I will begin by describing my Valentines Day. I got up at 6:30 and took a shower, drove into campus, and went to Statistics. I got my Statistics test back and made an 88, not too shabby. Then I went to my job. Shawn had asked me a few days earlier about the zip code and suite number of my office. Since he had asked me these questions I sort of knew to be expecting something. I wasn't, however, sure of what to expect. I spent the morning at my desk wondering if it was a singing telegram, flowers, or a Vermont Teddy Bear. I both love and hate surprises. Since I knew I was expecting a delivery the anticipation was killing me all morning. My shift was over at noon and I still had not gotten anything. I was at this point bursting with curiosity. My good friend Ekta called and I met her for lunch. She was also getting a Valentines delivery, but there were some complications with hers so we had to go on an excursion to pick it up. We found the place we were supposed to pick up her gift at, The Cloud Nine Market. The Cloud Nine Market turned out to a really fun kitchen emporium type of store with all kinds of neat stuff. Ekta's gift was a bottle of wine wrapped in all kinds of cute Valentines paper, tissue paper, ribbons and bows. She still hasn't opened it to see what kind of wine it is because she likes the festive wrapping so much. We then went to Ekta's apartment where she had flowers awaitng her. Next we got a call from my work that my delivery had arrived. We went back to FivePoints to collect it. Shawn had sent me a big beautiful bouquet of SUNFLOWERS. I love love love sunflowers. They are my favorite. So yellow and sunshiney. Ashley recieved a bear, chocolate, and flowers from her new boyfriend Donald. She really likes him. All of us (me, Ashley and Ekta) are in agreement that 2007 has been the best Valentines ever!!
