Valentine's Day

So how was yours?

I'm not entirely a Valentine's Day kind of person, mainly because it's too commercialized. Don't you think it's ludicrous to charge that much for a bouquet of roses or a present or a dinner? It sucks to be a guy. I even told my puppy that.

To tell you the truth, I didn't encourage him to do anything special for Valentine's Day because of the whole commercialism thing. Can you imagine receiving the same mass produced bouquet of red roses everyone else is getting? Can you imagine receiving a huge plush teddy with I LOVE YOUs blatantly splashed all over it? Can you imagine getting all dressed up for a romantic dinner only to realize that the restaurant is packed with other couples and despite your reservation you have to wait "because it's Valentine's Day," ?

Mine was beyond my expectations. Fair to say I was disappointed.

Our first Valentine's Day together and the day just passed - just like that.

At the end of the day, I'm still a girl. A small surprise to show that you remember and you care enough to do something for me on Valentine's Day would suffice.
