Valentine’s Day

First David came home and I went upstairs to change…he went to change in the other room…then we came downstairs into the kitchen in our sexiest workout wear, gathered up our adoption paperwork, and headed to the police station.

Not what you expected? Just par for the course in our Valentine’s history! Mind you, we always mark the day as special, but there was the time we ran into each other in the card aisle of Walgreen’s!

In fact, this might be the 1st V-Day that we didn’t make an anniversary trip to Walgreen’s.

Anyway, we got the first of our three required sets of fingerprints done this day. We were the only ones in the PD station, save the police. Boy the décor will make you not want to spend any time there.

The officer who did our prints was fairly young, as I’ve told some, I couldn’t decide whether he was somewhat cute, or strangely resembled the silver terminator in T2. The prints didn’t take long and we got to wash off the ink in the official brand-new-criminal bathroom with the recessed t.p. holder. Mmmmm, jail soap.

The officer thought it was a “good thing” we were doing and wanted to know how much it cost to adopt from China. So, I told him it was about $16-18K, with travel and all. He said, “Isn’t that like buying a kid?”. Oy.

Then we went to the gym.
