How Was Your Valentine's Day?

Did everything go as expected? If not, was it better or worse?

It went well, thank you; my Wife and I can still enjoy romance after 29 years! How was yours? I expect young Johnny kept you busy!

As I have no 'significant other' right now, it was just a normal day for me. Though, I admit, the whole love-in-the-air atmosphere made me kinda sad that I had no one to give me flowers, chocolates, etc.

I had a good day. But my g/f had class until 9p.m. so we will go out for dinner tonight.

Uneventful, as I don't care <deleted before writing> about Catholic saints.

In order to ward off the dangerous radiations of this Satan spawned holiday, I sensibly spent the day lying in my bed wrapped in tin foil.

Unfortunately, I waived the scratchy yet god-fearing protection of Sunstones tin foily goodness and had some sin filled fun with my friends. Managed to avoid getting asked out by anyone as well... *phew*.

The day went much better than I hoped for. Liz was positively gleeful about her gift, and says she's got one for me when I go to visit her in a month. I can't wait!

Well, not exactly. Just as I was leaving work, my fiance called to tell me his little bro was in the hospital. His lung is torn all the way down one side. So, we made him a care package of gameboy games and candy and wrote out a card.

Actual Valentine's Day wasn't much to talk about, but the weekend prior was wonderful.

Mine was fun, as I expected it to be and as it always is.

Blood and gore, with added creepiness and lots of jumps, followed by tons of alcohol and drugs. It was great.

Mine was ok too, My sis got me flowers and so did my friend, Brieanne. It was a nice day! Not like I expected it too be. I hope everybody else had a good Valentines Day too!

Wow 29 years, that's older than me! I hope I can say the same thing later on!

Thank you for asking. It didn't go quite as I expected. It was only our 2nd Valentine's day togethor, and I really wanted to make things nice for Johnny when he got home, like last year. I wanted to have everything ready - wine glasses, a tablecloth, a candle and a special fancy homemade dinner on the table, the works. My plan was that after we ate we were going to watch Romeo and Juliet (the 1960s one).

Well, it turned out baby had a doctor's appointment, a check-up, and I spent so long sitting there filling out paperwork. By the time I got home I was rushing around trying to get everything clean. I ended up making fish and macaroni - which made me sick the next day as I forgot to take my lactase pills. I also made a big fancy blueberry dessert - from a box.

He was really disappointed that I didn't even have a card for him. I found 5 bucks in the bottle bag and gave it to him. I felt so bad. I was going to make him a card later on, because we were really going to celebrate next weekend.

We started talking about religion during dinner (BAD IDEA!) and that went on for far longer than I wanted it to. So I said I didn't want to talk anymore, and he took it personal. We ended up watching about half an hour of Romeo and Juliet - during which he proclaimed the fight scene was "really cheesy" and Mercutio was too different from the play. I was getting all starry-eyed from the balcony scene, and he was just getting sleepy-eyed. We then just went to bed, where we were immediately woken up by a crying baby.

But it was still a pretty good day.
