I may never read another pdf on my e-reader! Reading
See? Short.
So then I decided that maybe I shouldn’t rant at all. But if
I don’t rant, I won’t have anything to write about. What to do? What to do?
How about I rant about Valentine’s Day? Do you celebrate? I
don’t. Never have. When I was single the “holiday” only depressed me. Once I
was married, it became unnecessary. I know my husband loves me and he knows I
love him. We don’t wait for a holiday to tell each other, either. So what’s the
whole purpose of the “holiday”? I truly believe it’s to sell candy, flowers,
and cards. There’s no other purpose to this day! Really, people. Do you need a fake
holiday to tell your sweetie you love them? Do you need a fake holiday to make
you feel lonelier? I don’t think so.
Hmmm…maybe I have the start of another book here.
So, what do you want to rant about?

Well ranted, Stacy. And I agree with you every step of the way. Enjoy your weekend!
Thanks, Jeff!
Does anyone really need ANY holiday to gobble turkey and be thankful, open holiday gifts, eat Halloween candy or share romantic smoochie smoohes? Not really. But life is short and we only get so many of these in one lifetime.
So this year, we're having fun with Valentine's Day. Tim took off four days and last night I finished the second part of his Valentine's Day Gift. I took everything out of the office that didn't need to be here, and made him a proper work space.
That, and I turned his blog into Valentine's Day Manor.
Cheers & Smoochie Smoochie.
Stacy,
You crack me up. I agree with everything you almost ranted on :)
Same with Valentine's day. I know my boyfriend loves me. I feel bad when he spends money on flowers and they die 2 days afterward.
Ivy - You took the sails out of my rant!! Argh!! That's okay, though. I still love you! :) And I loved what you did with Tim's blog!
Bonnie - Yeah, flowers are pretty and they smell great, but I hate seeing them die, too. Give me a plant instead. Of course, I tend to kill those! Haha! :)
Stacy: I am so sorry. I thought you were asking us what we thought. My bad.
Okay. Here's how's this? Valentine's Day sucks monkey AND dragon balls.
Wet ones.
Ivy - You kill me! Haha! You did nothing wrong (so please don't feel bad!!!). I was joshing with you, which just goes to show, that ain't so easy to do on a blog!
You go right ahead and give it to me. My rants are just that. Mine. Doesn't mean you have to AGREE with me. Just be prepared to see me WHINE when you don't! Haha! :)
lololol.
Sounds good to me. Thanks for looking at Tim's blog. Boy, that was fun to do. And then I got to hear him read the banner and boy, I could not stop laughing.
Cheers and smoochie smoochie.
OMG. Valentine's Day=my thoughts exactly! Maybe I could rant about a certain vampire romance that kept me up to late 'cause I had to finish, because it was that good! :D
Jennette - Yaaaaayyyy!!!! :)
How about this one... In Cleveland, we have a holiday, a Valentine's Day part deux, called Sweetest Day. It was invented by American Greetings, the Cleveland-based card company. The funny thing is, I didn't realize it was a bogus holiday until I gave my then-girlfriend (a New Jersey native) flowers for Sweetest Day, and she asked, "What's that?"
Michael - See...I KNEW that was an Ohio holiday! I never heard of Sweetest Day until I moved to Ohio! Of course, I thought Esther Price chocolates started it, guess I was wrong.
