Heart U

I'm looking at Valentine's Day from a whole new angle this year, and that's okay. I had it pretty good for a while, and I'm not a greedy person. But I do get a little frustrated by the vitriol around the whole "it's a Hallmark holiday" thing. I get it. This was made up by someone a while back to sell greeting cards, you're not wrong about that. But it's too late to decry its existence. It's too big, it's too far gone.

Also, you sound like a putz. In my experience, the people griping about having to buy flowers on Valentine's are the people who never, ever brought home even one random bouquet for no reason at all, I mean not once since last February 15th. And if that's the case, then you need to suck it up and buy something shiny.

The same goes for the whole argument about the winter holidays and how people should be more giving year round, and not just at the holidays. Agreed, let's do that. By all means. But if and until, let's take what we can get, shall we?

Have fun with your set menus, people. Again, you wouldn't have to prove anything if there wasn't anything to prove.

Luv,
Jenny
