So Joanna comes home last night with a friend while I'm furiously playing Guitar Hero (new addiction) and they tell Steve and I about their dinner at Sawtelle Kitchen. Apparently it was some sort of date night because the restaurant was full of couples.
In my normal know-it-all-tone, I jokingly pipe in "Well, duh! It's May 23rd! Of course it's date night!" just to play a joke on Steve. And I go on to tease him about not taking me out for May 23rd. He doesn't believe me and starts asking... "What? What's May 23rd?" I wink at Joanna and she gets in on it.. "Oh yeah! Duh! May 23rd!"
So by now we have both Steve and Joanna's friend feeling bad for not knowing the couples' significance of May 23rd. I challenge Steve to Google it -- again, still playing along with my joke.
So he goes to the computer and Googles it.. "Oh my gosh! Wow! It's 'I Love You' day! I did not know that!!"
?!?!?!?!?!??!?! I LOVE YOU DAY!?
Aha! 143rd day... 1-4-3... in high school pager code is "I love you."
Teehee. So of course now it's too late and I -have- to play along that I knew all this time and was disappointed he didn't do anything for me. "It's just as important as Valentine's Day... in fact, it's even more special because it's not a widely commercialized holiday!"
... So... we went on a walk through the neighborhood where I made him pick flowers (nice ones) to make me a bouquet. Teehee.
