    Oh man... this is a sore subject for me too... I just recently realized that I AM A GUY! LOL... my friend mentioned this holiday and my first thought was how to get out of it...

    the man I'm dating already said he wants to get me something crud... I don't wanna do gifts... and I don't want him to either... I told him so, but he's determined he wants to get something... he's not a cyclist so it makes it hard... Maybe tickets to the Michael Buble concert... I think I can handle sitting thru that... not really my thing, but he likes him...

    I said, can't we just go have dinner and skip the rest??? Sigh... he asked my clothing size... should I mention that I could use more cycling shorts and give him the SKU number???

    just dinner... please...

    Ask for a red/pink cycling jersey!!

    If you're a guy, my BF is a girl. I had to put on his new license plate this week because he couldn't get the screws out...

    Funny VD Story

    My French ex-BF of lots of years ago went with his friend in Miami to shop for an engagement ring for the friend's GF. Ex-BF mentioned that he had got me something expensive and shiny, too! You can guess what I thought. Imagine my disappointment when I opened my present to find a gold manicure set in a pretty woven leather case! Hehehe, I still really like it, though.

    I guess I'm the only one who loves Valentine's Day! Mainly because it's an excuse to make fudge and cook a nice dinner. We have a special meal as a family, and Blaine gets stuff for the girls and I get stuff for the boys. We usually do balloons and candy. It's just fun and the kids love it.

    But see, slinke, you are doing for each other. You're putting in time together. It's not just Blaine buying you diamonds.

    It's the stupid diamond commercials that really drive me nuts. Like the only way a man can really show a woman he loves her is to buy her diamonds and he's a loser if he doesn't. Grrrrr.

    I'm of the inclination that one keeps holidays in their heart year around and don't need a specific holiday such as Valentines to let someone know I care. I also don't do the presents at Christmas thing because it takes away from the spiritual aspect of Christmas (at least for me) but do give presents to my family and friends whenever I can and more than that, try to say or do a kind thing for people near and dear to let them know how much I appreciate and love them.

    Nove if someone wants to give me a box of See's candy for Valentines, I wouldn't complain!
