Obligatory Vaneltine's Day Post

My husband and I don't really celebrate Valentine's Day. We both have the same theory that you don't need to wait until a special day to do something nice for the people you love. Why wait until Feb 14 to buy flowers when they jack up the price? Do it any day, for no reason other than you were thinking about that person. It means so much more. And chocolate? If we women haven't ruined our New Year's resolutions by now then that giant heart shaped box of assorted deliciousness will. Skip it.

In the past we have spent our Valentine's day at such establishments as Home Depot and Pet-co. It's very romantic. This year we went to the zoo. It was a beautiful day and really wasn't that crowded. We had a great time! Maybe this will be a Valentine's Day tradition, so long as we live in a warm climate.

A sign you've been married too long:

Me: Let's go see a movie

Husband: Oh, I saw a preview the other day I wanted to see.

Me: Great, how about Thursday, I'm not working.

Husband: Thursday is Valentine's Day.

Me: Ooooh. Nevermind, let's just stay home.
