My birthday is in November, so I might have been conceived on Valentine's Day. There's a cheery thought.

― C J (C J), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:34 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost: very good, 3/10 if I'm feeling generous, which I ain't.

I had long-stemmed chocolate covered strawberries yesterday.

― Matilda Wormwood (Mary ), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 16:07 (seventeen years ago) link

Haha, that's because your boyfriend knows a few things about how to live. And because you deserve them, of course!

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 16:09 (seventeen years ago) link

Boyfriend?

― Matilda Wormwood (Mary ), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 16:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, do you share a last name with someone else around here? I think I just misattributed yr user name. Sorry!

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 16:13 (seventeen years ago) link

My husband stopped to buy me some flowers on the way back from work once, in a wonderfully spontaneous romantic gesture. Except he was on his motorbike at the time and since he had no panniers, he'd stuck the flowers down the front of his motorbike jacket and on arrival home he flourishingly presented me with a dozen long-stemmed stems.

― C J (C J), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 16:21 (seventeen years ago) link

I am Mary on this board:)

― Matilda Wormwood (Mary ), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 16:29 (seventeen years ago) link

Laurel and Mary: hah!

My Mom sent me a VDay package which included Orange Sponge Candy which made everything infinitely better.

― molly mummenschanz (molly d), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 16:38 (seventeen years ago) link

This is spectacularly sappy, but in addition to other terrific presents, she customized a bunch of candy hearts for me with sandpaper and food-coloring markers, and I just think that's the coolest thing ever.

my sis and i got truffles in the mail from our stepmum!

― AiLien (AMD), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 17:23 (seventeen years ago) link

― Lauren (lauren), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 17:27 (seventeen years ago) link

I just cannot get my head round the idea of buying Valentine's Day gifts or cards for anyone other than, well, my valentine. It seems strange.

Aww. My momma usually sends a Valentine's package, it's sweet.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 17:43 (seventeen years ago) link

I always get this fear that I'll get a valentines card, because I am emo.

― jel -- (jel), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 17:44 (seventeen years ago) link

My mom likes to send packages with homemade cards whenever a minor holiday arises. She's the cutest. I always get a box with candy corn in it around Halloween.

gift idea!

sandpaper???

I meant to send v-day packages to my nephew and nieces but forgot. :(

This was prompted by a comment on a friend's LJ poll about Valentine's Day.

my VD is starting getting stood up for a text messaging date :(

― emily simpson (emilys.), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 06:30 (seventeen years ago) link

not that I give VD any credence except for conversation hearts and homemade valentines

― emily simpson (emilys.), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 06:31 (seventeen years ago) link

man, teh suckiness of the sandbox tonight isn't helping

― emily simpson (emilys.), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 06:51 (seventeen years ago) link

I forgot to mention: I got a VD card the other day, and I'm baffled. I thought I knew who it might be from, from the writing style of the message; but she denies all knowledge.

― Forest Pines (ForestPines), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 08:51 (seventeen years ago) link

Maybe she's just pretending it's not from her, to add to the intrigue.

― C J (C J), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 08:52 (seventeen years ago) link

ugghh this day sucks

― chaki (chaki), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 08:59 (seventeen years ago) link

I left a big bowl of strawberries, rasberries & cream in teh fridge, srounded w/roses petals, for xtra special valentine breakfast for my GF. I even went and bought alphabet fridge magnets and spelled out "YOU GOT BRAKFAST[sic]IN HERE PAWS" on the fridge door, and she still didn't find them ;_;
So I had to get out of bed and point it out. Woe is me.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 09:00 (seventeen years ago) link

There's a strange burning smell at work today. We looked around for a bit and it comes from the backpack of a female collegue. Turns out her husband programmed their oven last night to bake some croissants for a romantic breakfast in bed this morning, but he somehow made a mistake and they woke up at about 1 AM when they smelled the burning croissants in the kitchen below. No damage done, she still got the flowers and fresh fruit juice in bed this morning, but everything they have (and our office) now smells of burnt bread.

Ah... romance.

― StanM (StanM), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 09:01 (seventeen years ago) link

i got my BF the achewood cookbook

The gift that keeps on giving! Great choice!

The Achewood Cookbook rules.

Ally OTMFM!!!

I got a text from S.O. It is all good in the hood. This is just like any other day though so why am I getting so stressed about tonight!?

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 09:04 (seventeen years ago) link

I had to leave the house before anyone else awoke today.

Left something nice though.

unflushed stool?

I expect that my Valentines card from TTH is held up in the mail. International post is notoriously unreliable.

― Dr.C (Dr.C), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 09:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Aw, Kit, yours is cute.

I got an apologetic "I didn't get you anything for Valentine's Day" from Mister Monkey when I picked him up from the train yesterday evening, but that's okay.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 10:05 (seventeen years ago) link

someone in the office got a genuine 'who is this from' valentine, and one prominent reaction was 'try to get a police escort home'.

― temporary enrique (temporary enrique), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 11:20 (seventeen years ago) link

I got my gf flowers...boring I guess but I really hate cards and I got her a CD last year, this year I didn't want to get a CD for her.

She is upset because she was finishing a job last Friday and they took her out in the afternoon so she didn't get a chance to post my card until Monday. It's funny cos I keep saying I'm more upset that she is upset than if my card doesn't arrive until tomorrow but she is still upset anyway!
