Valentine's Day

I'm guessing that over half the population is dreading next Tuesday. Well, maybe some single men are glad to not have the pressure of buying the right candy/flowers/etc., but otherwise, a lot of people are dreading it.

Why dread such a sweet holiday? I'm sure you know some of the answers:

1) Not everyone has a significant other.
2) Not everyone has a happy relationship.
3) Many people have higher expectations than their sig. other realize.
4) Not everyone can afford $50 for roses, plus candy!
5) Not everyone can serenade well.
6) Not everyone has the same idea of what is the perfect Valentine.

I propose that everyone just make up a Valentine this year. I've tried it before and it works very well. Just decide on a name and how cheesy they're going to be and run with it. Did he serenade you outside your window? Did she buy slinky lingerie? Did you get 9 lbs of chocolate? Whatever you like, imagine it! Just make sure you speak a little tongue-in-cheek so you aren't called a liar and make sure your audience is age-appropriate and you're good to go.

Movie of the Day: Just Like Heaven. SOOOOOOOO good. Perfect for sitting home alone on Valentines with the chocolate you bought yourself (you always know what to get you)!
