Lol - You forget I work for a jewelery company. Everyone spends their days this week rubbing their hands together and watching how much crap people buy each day. Ramble away - It's good therapy.

I don't think I'm going to get W anything for V day - We really never did much for it in the past, and it's just way too stupid and obvious at this point.

I talked to W pretty early today, since the weather was so great out I figured we could do something. Ended up going to lunch with D, which was a lot of fun. Then we went to a computer store to buy some stuff (My computer that has ALL my pictures and stuff on died in the move!!). D got tired, so I dropped W off at her house and took D home. W came back over later this evening, so we gave D a bath together and played until she went to bed. W ended up leaving after that, but we've been talking on IM every since... I took D tonight since I didn't want W to drive too much tomorrow if the weather is bad. Plus one of her cats is sick, so I offered to take it to the vet tomorrow night - Usually she'd be pretty resistive to that, but she said that would be nice. Didn't get any painting done today, so I guess we'll have to do that another day.

W isn't the way she was earlier this week - She still seems kind of down, but at least she is spending LOADS of time with D and I. Need to get something figured out for her b/day in a couple of weeks - Maybe we can have some fun and get away from 'all of this' for an evening.
