Okay.. so here's what I did last night:
My wife has been working her ass off at work (what else is new?) because they are short on people right now and, naturally, she has been picking up the extra work.
She's pretty much past the point of exhaustion and stress, so after my flight lesson, I stopped at the grocery store, got some things, then went home and:
1. cleaned the house.
2. cleaned the bathtub and bathroom
3. lit a BUTTLOAD of candles around the house, the tub, and even made a little "runway" of candles to the tub.
4. Drew her a bath. Pretty good too - looked just like a bath. (

) - seriously.. made a nice hot bubble bath for her (using - what else? Mr. Bubble.

) with some aromatherapy crystals in there for good measure.
5. Bought some yellow roses (her favorite) and put them by the tub
6. Put on some relaxing music
7. and when she got home, was waiting for her with a glass of her favorite wine.
Good stuff.
You guys out there might think that's pretty wus of me, but - hey - worked for me!!
Take notes.
