Valentine Interview

Yesterday, it was snowing in New York. The trees in Central Park had that magical, winter wonderland look where all of the twigs and branches are coated in white. I took my camera and walked around for a few hours.


As I was leaving the park, a lady asked if I would answer some questions about Valentine’s Day for her YouTube channel. I was surprised. I was in my hiking gear, which is kind of old and tattered. My big, snowflake moistened camera was hanging from my neck. 


Me: “My hair’s a mess.”


YouTube Lady: “It looks fine.”


Me: “Okay”


She handed me a lapel microphone and asked me to hold it, then she raised her phone and stated recording video.


YouTube Lady: “Do you have a Valentine?”


Me: “Yes”


YTL: “Who is it?”


Me: “My wife.”


YTL: “How long have you been together?”


Me: “Oh, many years.”


YTL: “Do you have a special Valentine’s memory with her?“


Me: “Nothing that stands out. It’s always a nice celebration.”


YTL: “Do you do something special for her, or is it more low key.”


Me: “Well, I buy her flowers, but I buy her flowers all through the year, almost every week.”


YTL: “Oh, wow! That’s nice.”


Me: “I try to keep the romance alive.”


YTL: “I think my boyfriend bought me flowers once.”
