Sucky Saturday...or Happy Valentines day...you choose!

[Flame]

My day started off with my older son coming into my room  when it was barely getting light out, saying my younger son was in the bathroom puking.  Oh joy.   At least he's good enough that he didn't puke all over his bed, but made it to the bathroom.

But it sure put a damper on the plans for today.

And we just got a call from some friends of the boys, who invited them both to a birthday party this afternoon.  So I get to listen to him complain that he doesn't get to go.


Other than that, not a bad day...cool outside, with a trip to Lowes and the grocery store in the mix, now that the trip to the Outdoors show is off.  (My daugther will stay home with sicko).


No chocolates for me today...I've been really good good about cutting sugar out, and don't want to blow it, or get back in the craving mode for it.

No plans to do anything special tonight...maybe crack a bottle of wine.

Two men were shot and killed down the street from here last night.  I took an alternate route home, or I would have wound up in the middle of it.  WTF?  ******* ghetto assholes.

she got me the Led Zeppelin boxed set remastered by Jimmy Page.

I have that set... I like it a lot.

How Valentine's Day Works    
When did the Valentine's Day frenzy begin? As is true of much of history, scholars tell slightly different versions of the history of this popular holiday. This HowStuffWorks ariticle looks at that history, with its Roman and Christian roots, as well as holiday traditions that have developed over the years. The site also checks out some old valentines and some new ones.

I'm at work and pissed.

Apparently these people don't understand IRS regulations.  So the real estate office was sold sometime during Dec (I thought it was Jan) but whatever.  I got a W2 from here and I freaking filed my taxes last Sunday.  What do I see when I walk in today, a damn W2 for $100.00 from the people that now owe the real estate office. 

There's a reason these are supposed to be hand delivered or mail by Jan 31!   


As for Valentine's Day it's an over commercialized Hallmark holiday that is really just kinda stupid.  I did send a Valentine's Day card (Hallmark too) to my current interest.  I think he appreciated it.  But other than that, I have never really cared about Valentine's Day, I find it silly.

I'm at work     making up for the people they laid off a while back.  I guess I'd rather be doing this than be one of the others, but d*ng...we're a big company, and I'm the only one here.

Already been out and about this morning. I picked up my co-op produce. I have more tomatoes and plums than I know what to do with. Any suggestions?

I may play racquetball with my sister this afternoon. Would also like to go for a long walk or maybe a run. We'll see how it goes.

Happy Saturday, all.

I thought it was going to be just another Hallmark holiday, then the wife gave me a new iPhone 3G.

Not really V day for me.  I gotta go to work tonight, so I'll be taking the wife out Tuesday night.

I figure that out to make for a good night.

Not so much with the Valentines day here today.

I was sick all week and didn't get out to shop for stuff.  We had planned on going out to dinner tonight but my daughter started in with what I am just recovering from.  Last night before bed I was feeling semi human and today I feel pretty good, after effects of sinus flu aside. 'Cept we can't go out for dinner now because our "Babysitter" is sick. 

Weee.

In honor of Valentines Day...

After 20 years of marriage, a couple was lying in bed one evening, when the wife felt her husband begin to touch her in ways he hadn't in quite awhile.

It almost tickled as his fingers started at her neck, and then began moving down past the small of her back.
He then slid his hand across her shoulders and neck, slowly worked it down over one breast, then the other, stopping just over her lower stomach.

He then proceeded to place his hand on her left inner arm, caressed past the side of her breast again, working down her side, passed gently over and then in between her buttock and down her leg to her calf.
Then, he proceeded up her inner thigh, stopping just at the uppermost portion of her leg. He continued in the same manner on her right side, then suddenly stopped, rolled over and became silent.

As she had become quite aroused by this caressing, she asked in a loving voice, 'That was wonderful. Why did you stop?'

'I found the remote,' he said.

Until I go to work, I'm just sitting here eating one of my Valentine's gifts...some Ghirardelli chocolate squares (dark chocolate with mint filling ).

Someone should never have sent them to me. ADDICTING!

I'm going to a concert tonight in Miami.  I'm taking my mother, she wanted to see Julio Iglesias and my father won't take her.  So I am spending my Valentine's night with my mom.

Try not to melt under your seat in embarrassment when she throws her undies onto the stage.

My good friend said yesterday "well, I was gonna see if you wanted to go to dinner tomorrow, then I realized everyone would think we were lesbians."

My day is nearly over.  3.25 hours to go...

My day is nearly over.  3.25 hours to go...

I have 4 hours and 45 minutes until I get off work.

But I did have some delicious broccoli cheese soup for lunch.   

[Chris]

I had spaghetti with meat sauce.  It wasn't bad.

I'm addicted to broccoli cheese soup.  I may need an intervention.

Here's a funny Valentines Day story;

When I was in college my roomate was dating one of my best friends. She managed a restaurant and he said we should go surprise her and give her some flowers since she was working that day. So we threw on ties and sports jackets and drove to the place and she was really tickled! She has the wait staff seat us at one of the "Reserved" tables and tells us she is having the cooks make us something special. So we are sitting there and the waiter brings out an ice bucket with champaign and they bring out a flaming Chateaubriand and cut the slices for us. This is seriously one of the best meals I have ever eaten.

After a while I notice that we are getting these sidelong glances from people and I mean a LOT of them. It suddenly hits me and I lean over and tell my friend "Ah Jeff? You realize that everyone here thinks we're gay?"

It's Valentines Day, we are dressed up and were specially seated at a tiny table for two and then got this huge welter of service because the manager was cracking the whip, and the table is actually on a little riser on the side of the main floor so we are sitting sort of elevated relative to everyone else.

He made it a point to lay a big kiss on her when she stopped by to check on us and I planted one on her cheek for good measure.

Hilarious!

The thing about my friend though, is she's old enough to be my mom (literally, she's the same age as my mom).  I told her when we go out, you know people think we're mom and daughter and then they think "damn, the daughter is really putting back those beers...mom must be the designated driver."

I had a weird Valentines thing happen yesterday.
Every year, I get some roses (non-red) and give one to all of my secretaries and female support people at work.
I gave one to this chick (bean counter) and she started crying.  She said "nobody ever gives me roses".

Sheesh, it's not like it was romantic or anything.

*sniff*  no one ever gives me roses either.

Any guy who says he doesn't hate V-day is a liar, a damn liar or a statistician.
