Valentine's Day. At work, I started changing the code for the templates I made so that they are more flexible. When I hand these templates to other School of Pharmacy web developers, we want them to be able to change color schemes with ease. Joel brought in Valentine's Day treats for everyone. He went all out: cherry chip in vanilla cupcakes with pink frosting, red heart candy sprinkles, colored sugar, and white jimmies on a deep red cocktail napkin. Also a small bag of candy tied with ribbon. I brought in small pre-packaged Hershey's Hugs and Kisses, which Patrick bought and I labelled (red text on clear labelling) with my P-touch labeller. When I got home, Patrick had set up new pillar candles and had prepared the bed for the massage he had been telling me I'd get today. He had made a splendid dinner at home: huge steaks of seasoned halibut and sides of new potatoes topped with an orange-based sauce. For dessert, a cherry pie from ?. For drinking, an Orangina-like refreshment from France. We watched the first half of West Side Story (1961) on DVD before I got tired and we went to bed (and Patrick managed to work in my massage at the end).
