Romance Gone Wrong...

Last night Silas tried to create a relaxing and romance filled evening. It was so sweet and what made me appreciate it even more was that nothing he did for me turned out right...but he kept on trying!! Here's how it began. I got home from my third 12 hour shift this week and when I walked in the door he told me I had a bubble bath waiting if I felt like it. And of course a bath sounded wonderful! In the bathroom it was dark with just a few candles lit...so relaxing. The jacuzzi tub we have is pretty deep, so I stepped right in and found that the water was scalding! Poor guy walked into me standing on the outside of the tub letting water out while I was filling it with some cold water. I assured him it was ok, and it did eventually feel really great to just sit and soak. His next thing was that he was going to make me dinner, whatever I wanted. Lucky for him I wanted a frozen pizza and a salad. This week we have had salad to go with every meal. I got some salad toppers to make things easier and tastier. The one I asked for was cranberries and pecans with raspberry dressing. He came back in with my salad and I took a big bite....of sun dried tomato basil cheddar cheese, spicy chicken and almonds...with raspberry dressing. Not exactly what I was expecting. He saw my face and knew that something wasn't right. Apparently he saw two bags of salad toppers and didn't read what they were so he just put both on my salad. So, back to the kitchen he went to make me the salad I wanted (he was happy to eat the first one). For the next 20 minutes I soaked in the tub ate a little salad and told my husband about my day at work. This was great, and then the timer for the pizza went off so he walked out of the bathroom to go get it. As he was passing the shelves to the left of our bathroom door, the glass bowl, filled with rocks and candles came tumbling off the shelves and shattered on the tile floor, sending rocks, glass and wax everywhere. For the last few minutes of my relaxing evening I watched him scrub the floor!! Poor guy, it didn't seem to bother him though, and I felt so special, which was his whole goal in the first place. So I guess the romance didn't go so wrong.
