Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Ok, you guys are restoring my faith in humanity. Two people at work were insisting that red and black were the traditional colors. Like red and green are for Christmas. I said red and pink. I mean a little black wouldn't be out of place on a card, or a tuxedo or something, but it isn't even a color!

BLACK? Like, the color of doom and death?

Yes- they said if they were giving a loved one a Valentine's card it would be black with red writing, or red roses with a black ribbon. Which might be nice for some, but I wouldn't call it tradition. They said red and black were sexy colors like you would wear for a tango!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Valentine's Day is not about the sexy tango. I mean, it could be, of course, depending on how you roll, but that is not the tradition.

Uh, no. That's the kind of thing stalkers send people in movies just before they boil a bunny.

I was like...so kids make black paper hearts, now? If they are not Wednesday Addams? Or-- if you were on Family Feud, the top answers for that question would be red and...black?? They are both 22, though so that might account for it.

Valentine's Day is actually my favorite holiday because of the red and the pink. I give out little Hello Kitty candy bags with pink and red hershey kisses and pink and red m & m's... No black!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Uh, no. That's the kind of thing stalkers send people in movies just before they boil a bunny.

That's what I was thinking, too.

This reminds me that I have part of a old box of Simpsons school valentines that I should give out at work on Friday!

Or it's the standard goth bouquet. But it's probably not something non-gothy types would immediately think of as romantic.

but the feed or whatever is completely effed up.

Oh mine was too! I thought it might be because there was a huge super short storm right when it got all messed up.
