There were a number of men wandering about aimlessly through the denuded Valentine's section, which looked positively post-apocalyptic.

I am so, so thankful that I do not work retail anymore. No sir, I do not know what your wife/girlfriend/crush object would like for Valentine's Day. No, I will model the red lace ... thing you are clutching desperately so you can "see what it looks like."

I wanted to grab something for Jon today at lunch, but all the V-Day prezzies in the kiosks were for ladies. Don't boys get V-Day presents too?

Aren't blow jobs traditional?

Bonny, I'm sorry you and poor Bartleby had to deal with that, and I glad that you reported it.

And speaking of asshats, I just got back from my hopefully last iron infusion, and I swear if the guy in the next booth over wasn't getting chemotherapy, I would have had to beat him and his friends with my crutches. Somehow they got on the topic of spina bifida, which then turned into them praising themselves for all of the healthy, perfect children they have. They got so loud and went on for so long that my mother had to go next door and say, "My daughter has spina bifida, and you are really upsetting her." I was having a really good day, and now I need to just let go of this before going out to a nice dinner with TCG.

Aw, my boss got engaged over the weekend!! And I just hit $5,000 for my fundraising total! Happy Whatever You Want to Call Today, everyone!

So I get stuff and he gets sex? I've seen that business model before...

Poor men, they waited too long!

treats

I am highly in favor of treats. There are a lot of chores that would get done a lot faster if someone would, say, give me a foot rub when I finished them.

So I get stuff and he gets sex? I've seen that business model before...

But it's not a trade; they're both gifts!

What if the guy in question gets blow jobs anyway? What should I get him for Valentine's Day then? I was seriously thinking of this today. Maybe I should save the BJs for special occasions. Or for treats!

Or maybe just have sexytimes for the sake of sexytimes, and buy each other gifts for appropriate holidays!

I think I am going to see if I can pick up something downtown before I get on the bus.

They're like flowers for men!

(That is NOT the e-card Tim sent me. This one is. I sent him this one. I know, we're disgustingly sappy.)

I love both of those, though I think Tim's to you is my favorite.
