I just hope Erik is gonna be happy about my Valentine’s surprise to him. I don’t know what I’ll do if he freaks out about it. But I know Erik. I keep forgetting that part. I plan on letting him know straight out that I’m not asking for anything other than his acceptance of my decision. I’m not talking marriage, at least not right now. I have school to finish first and that’s not gonna change. I want him to be okay with this because I love him so much. And I know that he loves me back. He’s been so sweet and attentive lately. I can tell that he’s excited about whatever he plans on giving me for V-Day tonight. He actually wanted me to try and guess! I told him to just tell me and he said no way; if I couldn’t guess it, then it would remain a surprise. Needless to say, I didn’t guess it. So the weather is shitty and I have to drive fifteen miles north in this rainy sleety shit, but Erik promised he’d drive us home since he went in the truck with the equipment earlier.
