Anyone getting stabby tonight? (The V-Day thread)

If, in the pool, you had approximately 11:45 a.m. as the moment when a woman would tell me that my wife really does want flowers for Valentine's Day, even though I told her we don't actually celebrate this so-called holiday ...

because ...

"she's a girl after all" ...

you win!

 

First Valentine's in 18 years I'm unattached. Weird feeling.

 

This counts as an invite to YGB to resume his posting from last year, right? Please? Yes?

 

Both the fiancee and I work today. She 9-5 and me 2-midnight.

Going over to her house for dinner (first one she's cooked for me) from 7-8, but gotta be back because I have production and the other two office guys are both at games.

Just dropped off an edible arrangement (with bear, balloons and a custom note) and a huge cookie cake that her coworkers will enjoy.

After being single the previous 13 Valentine's Days before our last two together, I'm kind of enjoying them. It's also her last Valentine's Day before our May 31 wedding, so I figured I'd better treat her right.

 

Oh, yeah.

I was completely against that lock to begin with.

 

Full disclosure: We did send my mom flowers from her grandchildren.

 

How the hell did you find an edible bear and balloons?

 

I never got the whole thing where people do Valentine's Day shit for their moms. There already is Mother's Day. It's not even far away.

 

My dad died last year and she mentioned the other day how he got her flowers every year on Valentine's Day.

 

My dog died when I was 7. You want to talk about that, too?

 

Maybe you can find the fourth Mrs. Creosote by next Valentine's Day.
