For the first time in our 5 years together, I gave her roses: 9 yellow ones and 3 red ones. I had my other love, give it to her. I couldn't do it myself, since there is that ten thousand miles of ocean between me and my two loves. For the other love, a really good chat and emails exchanged for the next three days that had her shaken, her breathe taken away.

Last nite we went to a Mardi Gras party with this yummy seafood boil, rices, etc. It was also a play party at the local dungeon. We did remember to eat light and then we played, ate a little something more and came home and crashed. This morning (cough- afternoon) we're still in bed. Dance lessons sound like fun though.

As a single gal in NY, I’m completely boycotting Valentine’s Day. Me and my single friends went and had a spa day last saturday, complete with manis, pedis, waxing and facials. We are all rocking black nail polish this week (anti-vday color we call it) and tonight we are getting together at the movies for Wolfman. Then we will probably go to the bar and celebrate being fabulous and single! :)

Truth be told…I’d much rather be doing something romantic with someone special but…those are the breaks!

I have always loved V-Day not for the cards, candy, and flowers aspect but for the stop and smell the roses moment it provides in our busy lives. It's just a chance to reflect on why we fell in love and why we still come together everyday.

At the request of the Mrs. I'm cooking a big dinner. Chine, crystal, fancy centerpiece, the works. Since I'm in school I don't cook as much as I used to and we both miss it. Will take Dan's advice about the afternoon lovin'. Cheers.

I am single this year and happily so. I’ll be spending the weekend with my kiddos and enjoying every moment of it. I am grateful for not having to worry about finding the ‘right enough’ ‘good enough’ gift for someone or having the expectation that I will cook some hugely fabulous meal and clean up after it too and I’m really grateful that if I do manage to get laid, it will be because we both seriously want it and not because we’re obligated due to the date.

I hope you have fun staying in and enjoying each other!

I loved this one and it inspired a whole blog post (http://queenmabscunt.blogspot.com/2010/02/my-future-valentine.html). I am another person for poetry. For one lover I bought a notebook and filled it with poetry I liked that reminded me of him and poems I had written about him, as well as short moments of prose where I was just thinking of him. A slightly odd thing to do perhaps but I think it was a good physical thing that showed him he was loved.

Wrote my love a little something and framed it. I’m broke and neither of us are much into flowers anyway. We’re backed up against different oceans, so… But I get to go to her next weekend, and we’re so happy about that. She’ll probably be cleaning all Valentine’s Day, lol. But next weekend will be our own special little holiday : O)

gf: honey, what are we doing on Sunday?
me: what’s Sunday?
gf: (staring at me)
me: oops

Yes, the staying home thing sounds like a perfect plan. :)

Happy Valentine’s Day to you both!!
