Sigh...
Okay: I planned V-day with a getaway into D.C., not far from Adams Morgan, one of our favorite parts of town. While in NYC, I had bought a niiiice necklace from a 5th Avenue jeweler. I arranged for a stay at the Omni Shorham hotel, which had a Valentine's Day package, and a reservation at the hotel's signature restaurant, Robert's, and at a restaurant in Adams Morgan (it was cold, so I wasn't sure my wife would want to go out or not).
We checked in, I presented the necklace, then we went down to dinner at Robert's (the cold won): Another V-day package, a 4-course meal for a reasonable price (though they got us on the wine!).
Afterward, we decided to walk off dinner, so we went into Adams Morgan anyway! But every place that looked interesting was already packed, and it was getting colder, so we came back to the hotel.
Upon entering our room, we discovered that room service had come in, dropped off a bottle of French champagne, and left a trail of rose petals leading from the door to the bed, with more rose petals shaped in a heart on the turned-down bed. After a few drinks... (cut to crashing ocean waves)
Next morning... after (cut to more crashing ocean waves), we had complimentary breakfast in bed, and checked out an hour or so later. On the way home, I picked up some flowers and stopped at my Mother's place, where we spent some time with her before finally going home and feeding the cat breakfast... at about 2PM.
Are we good?
