Pre-valentines madness post-valentines update!
As the weekend approaches, it comes time to write about last weekend's adventures in romance. Before you leave in disgust though, a big part of it is just marvelling at the city, and all the things you lose track of in all the rush.
On Friday night, after much undue trouble with transportation, I arrived in the city, promptly to be whisked off to the financial district with no explaination whatsoever. Steve was entirely bubbly, but he wouldn't tell me anything. We ended up taking the PATH to Hoboken, for pizza. This wasn't just pizza, though. This was a foot of the most perfectly baked pizza ever. If you're ever in Hoboken and get the chance, pick up a slice from Benny Tudino's. After pizza we stopped at Panera. It was pretty good, but would've been better fresh. I suppose that's what you get for going just before closing. Next we went out on the pier and talked and looked at the Manhattan skyline. I spend so much time there, but I really don't get to appreciate how pretty it is from a distance.

It's not as though the place is ever empty, but this was simply ridiculous. I will say that it was absolutely beautiful. I took the opportunity to take obscene amounts of photos, but only a few got posted.
Sunday was the not-too-much day. We did a lot of napping and cuddling. It gave me happies. This was like our valentines day. [insert long mushy section here about how great Steve is.]
I updated the pictures section with the pictures I took. Mom just arrived. Time to get started on the next Weekend Report.
