nope – not a typo . . . Valentine’s Day has gotten so way out of control – way beyond what it was started to be – it has been taken over by the H’mark folks and the ad agencies and the newspapers . . . case in point – this morning the local rag had a page full of v-day greetings . . . from people to their PETS! for heaven’s sake!
Folks, I know I am NOT an animal person. I like them as long as they belong to someone else – I REALLY like to be able to get up and go without having to worry about what to do with fido or princess – who will feed them – who will water them – who will shovel their piles of love?
But, even if I were an animal person, they would NOT be getting a v-day greeting from me in the local rag – to the tune of $50 or so . . . I don’t even spend that on my hubby. (he agrees with me that it is a made up holiday – erm, maybe it began when I agreed with HIM that it was a made up holiday – well, whatever) We sort of agree to agree that the cards and flowers and chocolates (wait! he can give me CHOCOLATES! what was I thinking?!) are not necessary. We’ve been together a good long time and we tolerate – that is, we love each other still.
CHOCOLATES ARE OKAY!!! bring ’em on. Heh
I just spent two hours at my dentist – teeth are nice and shiny and squeaky clean – bring on the choccies, baby. 😛
actually . . . a really nice v-day surprise would be my computer home and on my desk! Talked with the techs a bit ago – it is now on the bench (ooh baby – shine those lights) and has not missed a beat since they started her up! Wha???? Okay, fine then. Lessa was right when she said that maybe she just needed to visit the techs. The major tech, Chuckles, said that she is showing them the love! Harumph! I want the love!
