Default Valentine's day reminder

It's that time of year that we all dread!

Just posting a reminder to all you Engineer types who regularly remember Valentine's day at exactly the moment a co-worker says "happy valentine's day" to you on 14 February.

I've got flowers scheduled to be delivered to her at work on Monday for bonus points - she gets to enjoy them all week long, and gets to rub it in the faces of all the other ladies - I don't understand it myself, but apparently it's a thing. I also get to be lazy and useless all week long if I want, and that's okay.

Order from a local flower shop instead of 1800flowers.com for the best outcomes.

Remember, I'm pullin' for ya'; we're all in this together.

You all fail.

I told the wife well before we were married that I don't partake in made up, Hallmark card holidays. Now, if I do happen to do something nice, it gets remembered. If I don't, then it's just another day.

I'm in the same boat. My wife and I don't partake in this overcommercialized "holiday". Besides, I've leased her a new car last month so that should cover all the presents for a while

Nope, she got a spa day, fancy lunch, and record store trip for her bday a few days ago.

For V-day, I'll cook her dinner, if that ain't good enough, she can take her and all the animals I pay for out of the house I pay for.

I get married in 25 hours. It will be our 5 year anniversary so we figured it would make it easy to remember the date.


Just remember if you give the lady a good valentines day, then you get a good http://www.steakandbj.org day.
