Yup, 100 ways to hate this holiday. But really, it's just a hangover from Christmas / New Year's, when I'm usually all humbuggy but was in a pretty good mood this year so I guess that the holiday gods are karmaing my butt...
Yeah, I need to keep hibernating. with bevvies. watching 'The Shining' on Bravo. nothing says romantic like crazy Jack and redrum redrum REDRUM!!!

Hee heeeeee! You're so hilarious. My hubby and I call it "Forced Affection Day" *snort*
Just all the pushing, pushing for you to buy "love" ~ just makes us crazy insane and well...we sorta boycott it. Its so commercialized and it just pisses us off. BAH! Pass me a bevvie please ~
Luv you loooong time :)P
Dang it, I missed the Shining last night...love that movie.
Have a Happy Forced Affection Day!
