I hardly slept last night, which seems to be the story of my life when it comes to sleep as of lately; staying up late, sleeping all day or being so dead tired that when I finally get into bed I can’t fall asleep…it’s weird and it didn’t help that at around 11:40ish or so a FedEx truck pulled up in front of my apartment making all kinds of noise. I sleepily looked out the window and thought to myself, “what the hell? I didn’t order anything” and I wasn’t expecting anything either. I watched the lady open the side of the truck and the passenger door, she stood there, shifted some boxes, closed the doors and went on her merry way. I thought “that’s odd…if she knocked, I definitely didn’t hear it” so I figured I better go down to make sure I didn’t miss something in case there was a package for me since I didn’t hear the door. I opened the door as she pulled away and found a small box underneath the door mat, which surprised me since I was not expecting anything from anyone for Valentine’s Day even from Alan due to the fact that he’s been out of the job for almost a month and needs to save money, and he told me he’d get me something at a later date for V-day and my birthday.

Of course, I was excited because I had received a package I wasn’t expecting so I hurriedly ripped through the taped up box to find a card and a bag of milk chocolate Godiva hearts, and started to tear up. It was a Valentine’s gift from Alan, which was a total surprise. The card made me smile and giggle at the same time because he had one of my favorite pictures of him added to it so when I opened it and his big ol’ head was on the side of the card, I had to laugh to myself. Sometimes, the best things are those that happen unexpectedly.
