We played D&D for Valentine's day. It was the best ever, if not quite the traditional date night.
Hell, I don't know. If I had wanted schooling, I'da gone to school.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I've been pretty good today, but my Facebook is flooded with freinds talking about how they've been with the person in their life for twenty years or more (I know, not everybody is posting that). I'm trying not to let this be a statement about my worth as a person, but I'm only being partially successful. Feh. It helps that other people like my writing enough to perform it. I think that's the only thing keeping this from being a typical crap VDay.

Valentines was takeout Chinese and scrabble. But he let me win.
See, that sounds like a perfect VD date for me, except I'd rather win against a good opponent and thus feel victorious!
I've only ever dated someone two VDays in my life--in one, we were both out of town for work, and in the other, we broke up a few weeks later and it was kind of sucky.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've spent pretty much all of Valentine's Day working. Not much of anything going on, except endless hours of grading.

Ugh, I'm sorry Sean. I hate Valentine's Day, too.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I'd give anything for one more lousy valentines day with dh. This has been hard.

smonster, what guys do for Valentine's Day is often covered by "never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence." I spent years with a bunch of guys in karate, many of whom were in relationships with women they loved, and every year I reminded them about Valentine's Day and several ended up buying flowers at Kroger's on the way home.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Enough people I don't like get in relationships that I can't see being single as a reflection of my worth by any scale I value.
It's just a thing.

Probably the hardest thing you'll ever deal with. One hopes.

Words still fail, Maria. I can't even imagine. If there's anything I can do...
