On Valentine's Day
I’ll be blunt. Valentine’s Day is stupid. And this is not coming from a bitter, dried up spinster. I am happily in a relationship with a loving woman. I just don’t like the thought that all couples are being made to feel obligated to do something romantic on this day. You should be thinking these things every day. All Valentine’s Day succeeds in doing is making restaurants crowded and filling grocery stores with annoying pink and red things. Don’t wait until February to plan that romantic rendezvous, do it sooner! Do it later! Do it sooner and later! Valentine’s Day is just a big commercial blitz like Christmas.
*ahem*
That being said, here’s what we did, heehee! We played hooky these last couple days (our respective bosses think we’ve got something bad) and have been spending the days hanging out, lazing with movie rentals, and making out at random intervals. We made some time to wash a few dishes, but for the most part it was just lots and lots of alone time that we love. Today we visited a dog pound just to see. It was our first time there (our past dogs were all given to us by others). So many different personalities and temperaments. Some of them were actually nuzzling the fence just to get closer, it was very sweet.
We seriously thought about taking one home with us. However upon inquiring about her we were warned that the previous owner took it to the pound because it loved to destroy things outdoors. Oh hell no. Everything is finally perfect the way we want it after months and months of work. So nevermind. We’re sticking with two. They’re a handful already anyway.
As perfect as these last few days have been, it wasn’t because it was Valentine’s Day. That was just the excuse. We’ve done this before on several occasions (which is why our bosses and coworkers will never know about this blog!) and it’s lovely every time. My point is, don’t wait folks. Do it when you feel like it!
