Which size of guitar is better suited for fingerpicking country blues, a dreadnaught or auditorium style?

I'm looking at either a Martin D-28 or a Martin 000-28. I've played both and dig the sound of each, but again, I only played them for a few minutes in a music shop. Hardly enough time to make a serious decision. Obviously both are very expensive instruments, so I don't want to invest in one that wont fit my needs. I'm sure both would be fantastic, but I like to fingerpick old country blues in the vein of piedmont blues players like Mississippi John Hurt, Rev. Gary Davis, and Brownie McGhee. I'm curious if any of you out there have some direct knowledge on both these models of guitar. If any of you do, could you make a few recommendations? Thanks!

Romantic candlelit dinner; music suggestions and other ideas?

I'm preparing a special candlelit dinner at my place for me and my boyfriend tomorrow night. It's not a special occasion or anything, just want to show him i care :) I'm going with a pretty traditional sexy and sophisticated dinner; lots of candles, champagne, romantic jazz music, rose pedals, and his favorite dish. And he thinks he's coming over for pizza and a cheesy romance comedy :p

So I just wanted to get some suggestions on music... so far I've got At Last by Etta James and Let's Get Lost by Chet Baker, and also a few more jazz songs without words. I might just add 1 or 2 more songs from the artists I've already mentioned but I'd like a little more variety. Does anyone have any suggestions in terms of romantic jazz/rnb music for the evening, preferably with words?

Also, I was kind of curious; is there seriously enough room in a regular sized bath tub for two adults? I really love the romantic bubble bath idea but I'm afraid we're going to get in and realize we don't fit lol... he's really tall and muscular, I'm short and slim. Is it worth a shot?

Does anyone have other ideas to spice things up?
