Are you shittin' me? I'm more than prepared Grinchypants... I just don't take it out on Dave! He'll need looking out for during the apocalypse, I'll be hacking and skull bashing for two of us. You're either with us or against us... don't make me set up an opposing camp of survivors.

(If i'm honest, Dave doesn't really believe it's going to happen... I have the biggest 'I told you so' primed, ready and stored with my machete, just for THAT day... )

That sounds like the Sian I remember. Ok, we’re cool. But listen, you know I’ve long suspected those select few who “don’t believe” in the imminent zombie apocalypse are most likely going to be the ones behind the whole thing. Just sayin’. Watch your back; we need you to survive the initial wave.

That's a very good point, my friend... He is a clever boy afterall... :think:
I'll watch my back. Maybe we need to establish a code word in case he turns and/or is behind it in anyway...

My special 'finishing touches' arrived in the post this morning... I'm all excited about Valentines now!

We've moved our celebrations to the Saturday now... Can't be getting drunk and breaking furniture on a school night now, can we?

I'm taking the fiance' to lunch at The Ivy, and then to see the Harlem Globetrotters. She grew fond of the two Globetrotters during the amazing race, so I knew she wouldn't count it as going to a sporting event!

Is she aware that the next season of The Amazing Race debuts Valentine's night?

Here in the colonies, we have a holiday Monday the 15th, President's Day, so we get to celebrate on VD proper.

i don't see why not, this has been happening on a nightly basis in Scottish homes for decades.

Just another day. If you need specified holiday to be romantic or nice to the one you love, then you're beyond help anyway. I'd rather do something for someone or have them do something for me on some random day rather than when they feel like they have to.

I agree. We celebrate two weeks later on the anniversary of our engagement. Every year we pick a different Hotel in NYC to go to and we do dinner and play (and play ). My favorite weekend of the year.

sweet!


seems we got engaged around the same time. mr. dream proposed to me 02.26.91.
sounds like a GREAT weekend!


funny too, this year will be the 3rd year in a row that we've taken the last week in february off together. was never even a conscious decision about being off for that anniversary, but i like it and now will have to make a point of it this year. having a staycation, but yea....still should be fun!


and hey, i am ALL for 'celebrating'....whatever really, any time of year. just making a conscious choice to do a little more, go the extra mile, be a wee bit more romantic or different from the usual day-to-day....always good, whatever the 'excuse'; heart day, anniversary, b/c it's a full moon....or simply b/c you just decide to do so randomly ......all good reasons.....

Well if you want to be technical it is two weeks and four days, which I guess rounds out to 3 ...
How long after you engagement was the wedding?

if you want to be technical .....we got married 1 year, 3 months and 25 days later.
i can't believe i'm married so much longer than you :oops: ...i just kinda figured since we're around the same age (i think you may even have a few years on me, maybe ) we'd have similar dates. then again, i married young....but hey, you had 3 kids...so sure, mazel tov!

My bf and I don't do anything for Valentines Day. I think last year I picked up a block of chocolate for us to share because I felt like chocolate. Not a big deal at all in my household.

So what did you do?

"Off the hook for tomorrow"....it seems like you do a lot of stuff for your gf out of "obligation" rather than wanting to.

just the typical..

Italian resturant.. movie and my place.......


Just don't take it so seriously. If you are in love, make the most fun of the day.


I'm doing the typical.. red roses.. candy.. necklace.. dinner.


Just enjoy it if you can... if not, just be the bitter ass about it I was most of my life.

didn't even realize it was so close

Well I am at College so me and my girlfriend (still in High School) are supposed to just celebrate on friday when I come home with me just getting her the usual Chocolate covered strawberries and nothing else because I'm light on cash this year........BUT, I am having a dozen roses (along with a bunch of other flowers mixed in from this awesome local place) delivered to her so that they will be on the dining room table when she gets home from school, I'm pretty excited to hear her reaction she doesn't see it coming at all!


On a side note I already gave her a card, the greatest/funniest Valentines Day card ever. Front says "When I saw you I knew it was true love at first sight!" Open card, inside says "Then you turned around and I thought 'hey she's got a pretty nice face too!'"
