What does it say above the Vice President's door?
Two men enter. One man leaves.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
BF is going to Atlanta to cover some automotive event tomorrow, so I'll be hanging around with the dogs and watching TV on V-Day. We don't have an anniversary (due to the ENDLESS start-and-stop nature of the beginning of our relationship), so V-Day is our official "day," and I should be bummed, but I am kinda looking forward to lazing around in my jammies and watching various chick flicks I have Netflixed.

Compassionately intolerant
I made a big anti-Vday speech to the new Fella early on...sensing there might be some pressure to preform even though we are so new (and v.v. happy, by the by). When I finally exhaled from my screed about being a florist and seeing the dark, destructive underbelly of the corporate holiday, Fella paused and said,"Um. Okay. Heard all that. And I already made plans to take that night off."
Me: K. This'll be fun! t /schizo

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
bon bon and bob bob had their first date on V-Day. I was all no! Delay! Delay! Stress!
Which goes to show, I know little.
An ex told me he loved me on Valentine's Day once. I also remember my chiro being pointedly sweet. Other than that, nothing. I don't have an anti-V screed. Just an "Oh, that's how the other half live."

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
our official "day,"
I keep trying to tell DH that it is nice haveing an official day to celebrate, but it is more important that we appreciate each other when we are together , than worring about a day. He is away this year for V-day, and our anniversary didn't get much attention, but I figure that just makes our eventual chosen time of celbration better.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
This year I got chocolate, so I'm good with Valentine's day.

Always Anti-fascist!
I've only ever had one really romantic Valentine's, a few that "sucked beyond the telling" and mostly it's a day, only. Still bracing for February bad luck, though.

My grandfather died on Valentine's day when I a little girl. Kinda put a damper on the holiday for a decade or so. But now I think of it as a day to make others smile.

Like most holidays for me, V-day is an excuse to cook a more-elaborate-than-usual dinner. (Unless (1) DH surprises me with something, in which case it's an excuse to go out or (2) I decide I'm too tired, in which case it's an excuse to order takeout. I'm easy that way.)
