Happy what?

ok- changing the direction a bit.....

Worst Valentines Memory- I wanted to do Valentines up and sweet for my ex husband. Flowers, candlelight dinner, card, candy, and me in slinky lingerie.

His response?

"What did you get for ME? You got the lingerie- what about ME?"

Fvcker.

Best Valentines memory- My dad- knowing for years I had no Valentine- always got me something pretty and special- with a small box of candy and a card. Dad's make good Valentines when you are alone.

I AM celebrating the day- I bought the kids candy and I WILL exchange gifts and spend time with Jupiter today after work- I just find the huge aisles of pink and red and fluff and the barrage of consumerism to be really artificial. I found the OP "wish" to be amusing and snarky in a tounge and cheek way- no wish to rain on people's celebration- just an expression of my own cynical reaction to this "holiday".
