Your mom didn't ask me to read this and comment. I was just playing off a comment that you made about being surprised that people besides your mom read this. I forgot to use my sarc marks. Your articles are awesome, btw. I'm just a jaded guy going thru a D who sits at home eating leftover VD chocolates alone! I hope you know I love you. (too!)

Your mom asked me to read it and say something nice. Anyways, VD sucks and your comment about being disappointed cuz some guy spent 3 times as much as he should have on a dozen roses just proves it. Somewhere across town some girl is probably disappointed because her guy wrote a sappy note about his undying love instead of buying roses!!! Guys can never top the expectations! Loved the idea of buying your own chocolates, having a singles mixer, and sending nice cards to peeps you love. Pat would totally solve this problem with all kinds of attitude! Crazy! Nice writing. Your mom owes me five bucks. Carly, Sorry so late on reading and responding to this post. Your mom asked me to read it and say something nice.

We have taken to calling it VD. However, last year he came home with the Best. Present. Ever. Techbically, it was a day late, but that made it even better. He whipped a Walgreens bag out from behind his back (classy, as always). From the bag he pulled a huge Whitman's Sampler. I was thinking, "Half price chocolates are great, but he really built this up..." When he handed me the box I see that the front is decorated with a silhouette of a couple embracing on a beach. Printed in glittery red script, emphasis on glittery, is some verse about how when he looks into my eyes he see a thousand angel wings, or something equally awful. Then, he opened the lid and it started PLAYING MUSIC! Apparently the awful poetry is from a song and my box of chocolates is now playing that awful song! This proved that there is someone out there that completely gets me. I still have that song. Kyle dismantled the box and has spent countless hours trying to rig it to my jewelry box, our kitchen cabinets and basically every other thing that opens. Every time I hear that tinny voice singing that damn song, I smile and know that someone really does love me. My husband and I are not big on the Valentine’s Day celebration front.
