Pink Handcuffs, Heart Shaped Cheesecake

Those are the things I want for Valentina's day! Well, I won't be getting the pink handcuffs (real ones, for patrol!) b/c they cost around $60 bucks, which we can't spare right now. I did put in a call to my Sgt. and asked him if I would get in trouble for having pink handcuffs. He said there's no policy on handcuff color but that if I got them to expect ribbing from the other deputies. Like I care! I'm a girl! I also saw this intriguing looking Malibu Rum flavored chocolate candy and I would not be opposed to getting some of that tomorrow as well. How I love Valentina's Day! Still don't know where we're having dinner tomorrow night but I was unsuccessful in finding a body sushi place. I still want sushi, though...

I am getting S a gift card to his beloved Smoothie King b/c there is one on campus that he consistently uses all his weekly allowance to frequent--he says he needs his vitamins. He is still suffering from his cold but his class Director is also sick so they have had an easygoing week so far. He tried Claritin and Sudafed yesterday with no relief, but we slept in the same bed last night so I'm hoping at least the contagious period is over.

Tonight I've got a board meeting of the High-spanic Health coalition. My 2-year term on the Board is coming to an end and I have to decide if I want to run for reelection. There's pros and cons: pros are how cool it looks on my resume and how the Library and my higher-ups think it's cool that I'm on the Board. Cons are the Wednesday night meeting times that are now interfering with my schedule to earn $ at Job #2 and that they recently voted to require financial contributions from Board members. I don't mind making a financial contribution but times are tight right now and will be until S graduates and gets a job. S said to contribute $10 but I would never do such a low amount. What to do, what to do!

Interesting tidbit note: S found out yesterday that one of his classmates is the first cousin of the amicus attorney! And apparently they are very close and talk every day. Like the amicus needs any more reason or evidence that S and I should have custody of the baby.
