Reality retaliates

Happy-valentines-day-in-after-shot! (Swedish expression translated to English). I decided to do something for my loved one yesterday; I bought some expensive chocolate, went home and made a little massage parlour in the kitchen because I wanted to treat her a little bit better than I usually do (shame on me). Thinking that “This will certainly impress her!” and walking around the apartment with my “scheming-face” on I pondered on the excitement this would cause. The expression, “The best-laid schemes of mice and men aft go agley”, was very appropriate for this evening. I will explain why. She quits her job at 9 p.m so I thought I would light some candles, put on some relaxing music and lead her in to the kitchen for an estimated arrival at about 9:15. As the key turns in the lock, I’m sitting in the sofa watching TV. Time is 8:50. WHAAT!?!? Well, anyway, I say that I had a little suprise and walk her in the kitchen and start lighting candles. Then I give her the choclate (it’s wrapped in nice paper, by the way…) and when she’s opening it, she says “I hope it’s not chocolate…”. WHAAT!?!? I completely forgot that she’s not eating candy at all. Shame on me. Surprise ruined – Check Present unwanted – Check At least she said the massage was good… I think. //The Joker
