Stinking Valentines Day

Recommended Posts

It seems that I can't drive down the road without passing a million flower shops, porn shops or jewelry stores promoting my most and least favorite day of the year.

I know this holiday is so hallmark, but for some reason it just brings out the libra chick in me.

Every year it's one disaster after another. There was that one year that I had the ultra romantic dinner at my place of employment...Gameworks?!. (Of course I ended up paying too). Or my personal favorite...the year I went over to the boys house to have dinner and he was walking out the door with another chick.

On a positive note...my boss said that I could work a double on the 14th. I'll just live vicariously through all of the happy couples there. (Blah, blah, blah).

x's and o's,

Hol :)

I've hired some big strong men to kidnap Sebazz. They'll be bringing him to the special suite i reserved at the Love Hotel. I've already told the hotel staff that he's kinky, so if they hear lotsa screaming to just ingore it.:P

IMO, Valentine's Day is just another Hallmark holiday. My hubby and I don't do anything we don't do any other time. At our house every day is Christmas, Valentines Day, etc...

Most pissed off Valentines Day experience - 1st marriage, 1st valentines day as a married couple. I put some thought into his gift to make sure it was here on Valentines day and I got a pre-wrapped box of chocolates - the icky fruity cream kind that no one eats. This was an obvious last minuted picked it up at the convenience store on the way home gift. He is now the X but for better reasons than listed above.

I used to be a disaster area when it came to V-day!

Three years running:
1st year, girlfriend was caught cheating
2nd year, my classic 1965 Imperial land yacht was t-boned by some idiot.
3rd year, had to put my 15 year old dog down.

Spent the next few years ignoring the date.

This year should be great, I have a wonderful woman to share it with.....
;)

yeah I hear ya.I totally hate Valentines Day. Every year, with the exception of last year, I've been single and alone on Valentine's Day.Last year I was given an engagement ring but everyone here knows how that turned out...worst year of my life.This year I'll most likely be single and alone again as always.It sucks to see everyone walking around like friggin' Noah's Ark in twos while you're by yourself.Then theres all the hype every where and you can barely walk into any mall or store that doesnt bombard you with candy,flowers,stuffed animals etc etc covered in all this cutesy red and pick stuff.I've never even had anyone send me a card or flowers on Valentine's Day.

Ok,sorry for the rant and bitterness.I'll go now.:$[:/]

Oh that sounds like a great idea Kev. Can I please???!!! NOT!!!!!

I'm talking flowers (not the little fake plastic kind from 7-11 either), candles, gondola rides under the stars and shit...not dave and busters dude! Am I the last of the romantic's left on this planet?

To me it seems like a day that celebrates what keeps us all together would be looked upon with more value. *sigh*

I've been single on every Valentine's Day, so I never really had a crappy one. I used to buy all of my friends those little Valentine's Day cards that elementary school kids use. One of my guy friends would go around buying flowers or candy for all of his female friends. Some of the crap out there is cheesey, but it's fun if not taken too seriously.
There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

A couple of years ago, me and 3 friends were going to Key West on Jan 31st to party. 3-day weekend thing. The morning of takeoff was rainy/cloudy and we washed the trip and re-scheduled for 2 weeks later.

Two weeks later, weather is beautiful. We fly down in 2 hours, head for a hotel. The clerk was "too helpful" and I was teasing my buddy about it when he said, "Well, we are 4 guys checking into a hotel in Key West on Valentines Day." Hadn't even thought about it. :D

Of course not. I give flowers to women (well, only Stacy and Skymama) all the time. Tip for the guys, I found a great spot to get flowers right by my house. After they plant someone, they never come back and check the flowers. They are there for the taking. ;) (Of course, you have to change the card.)

unfortunately thats because it is Feb. vacation week.

Valentines day really is overrated, but the stinkiest part is when you don't have a valentine to share it with. :(

edited to say: actually the stinkiest part of valentines day is when you think you have a valentine, but he is on call, so the romantic in you makes a great dinner, packs it up and heads to his office with the idea of a nice romantic dinner in mind...only to walk by his office and see his other girlfriend beat you to it.
