Go to your kitchen all sleepy eyed so you can make coffee but instead you're greeted with a small wrapped box and a card sitting on the kitchen counter. You read the card and it's beautiful and sweet and mushy, of course. Unwrap the gift and you find this:
Squeal with delight because he remembered and was sneaky enough to get it without you noticing. Make a mental note of mass amounts of brownie points for this one. Also, feel like an ass because you had AGREED not to get each other anything so you got him a card that was very sweet but you didn't get him a gift.
Decide that anniversary breakfast is in order, because your diet? Fuck it. It's out the window at this point.
Meet up with fantastic friends and have a very fattening and very awesome breakfast. Finish breakfast and feel so full that you're afraid you'll never get hungry again let alone be hungry for dinner that night. Tell yourself that next time maybe you shouldn't get the omelette that's the size of your freaking head AND pancakes.
Head to a local recreation store and drool over high priced items you can't afford. Then do funny things and take pictures that are really only funny to you.
Take the rest of the afternoon to relax and try to get as hungry as possible. Get all gussied up and head out to the fancy schmancy restaurant. So fancy in fact that there is complimentary valet parking! Valet parking for your POS Jeep! Laugh and also die a little inside when they valet your POS next to Porches, Volvos, Mercedes, BMWs, and a Maserati.
Everything is ready when you get to your table. Confetti and a card wishing you a happy anniversary signed by the entire restaurant staff. Your waiter is amazing and the person sitting across the table from you has set this whole thing up without you even knowing about it. Mental note: more brownie points.
Order wine, appetizer, and entrees. Drool each time one of them is served to you.
Just when you think you can't eat anymore. When you think you are stuffed to the max the waiter has a surprise for you. Complimentary dessert! YAY! MORE CALORIES!
Oh it was so worth every single calorie. It was delicious and creamy and made me moan for a second. Yes, it was just that good.
Leave the restaurant and walk around a bit just hoping that your food digests so you can at least be comfortable enough to drive home. Take pictures of yourselves because you're so cute together.
Go home and fall into a food and wine induced coma. Fall asleep with a smile on your face, lots of food in your belly, cuddled up next to the one that you love. Grateful for the last year you had and looking forward to spending many many more anniversaries together.
