I don't agree with flowers. They're too contrived. "Hey, sorry I was a douche bag, but since I went five minutes out of my way to stop by the grocery store and pick up some colourful, soon to be wilted garden decor, all is forgiven?" Anything that flowers could fix doesn't need them, and anything big enough to need them can't be fixed by flowers.
And besides, I want to stay mad. After all, I have a right to be mad, don't I? Who would have thought that something like a little absentmindedness on my part could sour the beginning of what turned out to be such an awesome day? The Upper Kananaskis Lakes area is a beautiful place, especially in the company of friends. An over-indulgent motor home doesn't hurt either. The sheer enormity of the Rocky Mountains dwarfs nearly everything, the least of which is a petty relationship squabble. It would be convenient to stay mad...but, I can't. All I want to do is cook her dinner, say I'm sorry, and share my awesome day with her.
