gag me with a spoon

so it's Saints Valentines day ~ whoop-i-dididy-do ~

i so dislike Valentines day. makes me want to vomit. all this romantic lovey dovey crap. and no i'm not a disgruntled single either. i just don't like this "made" up holiday and i really don't buy into the whole swept off your feet romance sort of thing anyways. relationships take work. a lot of it. and for someone to pick February 14th as the day of love. ick. i personally feel that someone (from a card/chocolate/jewelry company) came up with this idea to rack up the $$ between x-mas and easter. there never would have been a holiday and really who gets the gifts?? women! i shouldn't really be complaining as i love to get stuff (what girl doesn't) but to make my husband go thru at least of month of "what do you want for valentines..." and i always reply "nothing" but deep down we always want something is just down right devious (really this year i wanted nothing as we have no funds to waste on such needless things) so it's an endless cycle that needs to stop!

you know i think it all goes back to when i was the shy kid in grade school that never got any valentines....... nah, i'm kidding but it whould make sense wouldn't it??

anyways Happy V-day

Not a fan of V-day, either. And I am a disgruntled single! It is just a money-maker, no doubt about it.

But all the chocolate should be 50% off today - and that's a good thing.
