It's Valentine's Day, Stupid

Submitted by 1464 on

Good morning all you stupid idiots.

It's Valentine's Day.  So text your significant other and make sure to swing by the store on your way home to get some chocolate and whatever flowers they have left (probably just a clump of ragweed with a bow on it).  This PSA is my way of making sure you morans don't forget.  You're welcome.

What's that?  You remembered today and had something ready?  Yeah right, buddy.  I believe you...

She is one of those rare women who doesn't fall for a manufactured, commercialized fake sentiment holiday. Doesn't watch The Bachelor. She doesn't even like diamonds or wear any jewelry.

I am, of course, the luckiest guy in the world.

The key is some strategic shaving before you put the thong on. She'll appreciate the attention to detail and you'll appreciate fewer snags. 

Oh, you want HER to wear the thong? Hey...whatever floats your boat, weirdos...

About 10 years ago I sent my mother one of those really expensive custom cards. I told her to send it back because that was too much money to only get one year out of it. So we sent it back and forth for a few years but postage was like a dollar so eventually she said let's stop this, I will just read it every year.

to get past the obligatory lame Valentine's card.  My wife finally acknowledged the waste a few years ago.  However, I believe the fancy 30 year anniversary rings she got had more to do with an end to Valentine's cards.  So, when in doubt, go for the "grand gesture" to end the insanity.

I bought flowers a bit over a week ago before they jacked up the prices three fold for today.  My wife thanked me for buying them when they were normal price & told me to continue to do so in the future. :)

My romantic move today is to drive up to Cedar Rapids to pick up the Iowa assessment tests for our school district, because my wife asked me to.  She's in charge of all that crap for the district, on top of being elementary school principal.

My wife and I don't even bother buying stuff for each other. We agreed to buy whatever we wanted for ourselves and thanking the other for a wonderful gift. We do this for birthdays, Christmas, etc. It's wonderful.

My oldest child turns 16 today. My birthday is tomorrow. Having a baby on Valentine's Day means that I am always doubley responsible for Valentines plus to thank her for being the mother of my kids. Which, to honest, is fair. Can't complain. And it makes it impossible to forget, so I have that going for me.

With my birthday being tomorrow, however, this also means that I essentially never have a birthday. I'm the 3rd most important event in two days and my family apparently has limited attention abilities. I have come to accept this and now just buy myself what I want and don't feel guilty about it.... at this moment looking into Big Ten Tournament tix at the Verizon Center, D.C.(live in D.C. and just noticed the tournament will be here this year - first time I'll be able to attend - so excited!).

I gift myself.
