[Kikosexy2]

1. Puck it...

I'm gonna myself some candy for Valentine's. Why? 'cause I'm sweet dammit!

[crispini]

15. Damn right! nt

[loudestchick]

2. Hyacinths, potted. They smell amazing and they'll last for awhile.

[crispini]

7. Oooo. Good idea! Red ones. :)

[loudestchick]

9. Enjoy yourself! wink wink nudge nudge

[crispini]

16. Say no more, say no more! :)

[hippiechick]

3. I'm taking myself out to dinner, and to hear this dude ...

www.raylamontagne.com

Ray's gonna sing to me at a little pub on the East Side of town.
I can't wait !!!

:loveya:

[crispini]

11. Hey! Some good sounds on that site!

Where's he from?

[hippiechick]

13. I'm thinking New Hampshire, but he's touring ...

... the tour info is somewhere on that site.

Steven Stills' daughter 'discovered' him and plays backup for most of his stuff.

The cd is AWESOME !!!

[Lavender Brown]

4. here's a candy heart just for you

5. I know the feeling.

Some acknowledgement would be nice. I don't know why this year would be any different then any of the rest of them. :(

[redqueen]

10. I'm considering it.

Every year, without fail, my husband forgets, and I feel bad giving him something when he doesn't get me anything. So this year I'm buying for both of us. :)

[SarahB]

14. I hear ya.

In 14 years, he took me out ONCE for Valentine's Day to do something special. That was just last year as he was grasping at straws by that point. I'm frankly tired of men who say one thing and then treat me like I don't mean anything at all. :(

[redqueen]

18. Yeah, but whaddaya gonna do? Go lez?

I keed, I keed...

We just need new boyfriends. ;)

[SarahB]

21. I'm beginning to think I might.

If it were only that simple. Freakin' men! :grr:

[crispini]

28. Get laid? That's easy.

Just pick up a guy in a bar, piece o' cake. It's having a real relationship with one that's hard. :P

[SarahB]

30. I know.

That would be easy. Not me though. :(

[crispini]

19. V-day always sucks for me; I'm either not IN a relationship,

or I'm in a really fresh one, and doing something for V-day's just weird. Hey, at least you've GOT a guy, right?

[SarahB]

26. Not exactly

I have a guy I'm in the middle of a divorce with who is still allegedly in love with me (I'm not). I have another guy who supposedly has feelings for me who had managed to write me the equivalent of War and Peace in adoring letters on and off for the past year and a half who is in the middle of his own assorted junk that has now mysteriously gone just before we could actually have something real and I suspect he's moving out of the country, but too scared to tell me yet. I have a long-time male acquaintance also divorcing with a bit of a crush on me which I'm thinking perhaps "What the Hell?" at this point because I'm really, really tired and exhausted with not... well... nevermind.

I have no one, yet an odd harem adoring men in their early 40's. It would be sort of nice to just get my life settled in some way because it's been pretty up in the air for a long time now. In the meantime, I try not to worry, take care of my kids, work, etc. and deal with myself.

[crispini]

31. Ok, you win. Wow, what a soap opera.

Buy yourself flowers. If you buy them today, you'll have sort of kind of forgotten about them by the time V-Day rolls around and then you can be pleasantly surprised. :evilgrin: That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

[Darknyte7]

12. Someone beat me to it already, but...

[crispini]

17. Aw....

:loveya: Thanks!

[babylonsister]

20. Peonies are gorgeous and smelly, and

I'm thinking they're in bloom now.

[Lisa0825]

22. All I need for Valentine's Day is....

flowers and batteries!!!

:evilgrin:

[crispini]

25. Right on!

:evilgrin:

[Magrittes Pipe]

23. Buy yourself a dozen dead roses, send to office, sign card "Jude Law."

When asked by your co-workers why Jude Law sent you a dozen dead roses, say "I broke that bitch's heart."

[crispini]

24. LOL, ok, that's funny. :)

[fujiyama]

27. How 'bout some chocolates?

[crispini]

29. Awww. Thanks, you're so sweet!

Yummmm

[GOPisEvil]

32. I have a ton of flowers at my place.

You're welcome to some of them if you like.

Marigolds...coreopsis...several others...grown from seed.

[crispini]

33. Aww.. thanks!

We definitely need to get all of us Texas DU'ers together at Democracyfest if not before. I'm bringing a nice big Dallas posse. :evilgrin:

[GOPisEvil]

34. Sweet! I'm going - I just have to send off the check!

My birthday is the Friday of DF...two reasons to party!

[crispini]

36. We are renting

an ENTIRE bed and breakfast.

And bringing a boatload of booze. :P

[GOPisEvil]

38. Nice!!!!!!!!!!

I'll contribute some Austin-made Tito's Handmade Vodka to the cause!

[crispini]

39. Very cool, thanks!

:yourock:

[MADem]

35. What you get is not as important as

...the CARD. It should say "FROM THE ONE WHO LOVES YOU BEST!!!!"

After all, if you can't love yourself, you can't love anyone else!

Get something YOU like, even if it is a tomato plant. Have the flowers delivered to your work. Make everyone wonder!

[crispini]

37. Right on!

It's done. I picked a little miniature rose plant.

Because I like roses. And (theoretically) I can plant it. :)

[gypsy11]

40. As well you should! n/t

[dr.strangelove]

41. Will you get lucky?

Forget that, don't answer. I don't want to hijack this and turn it into a sex thread. Sorry.

[crispini]

42. LOL. nt

[Dukkha]

43. this should be enough for ALL on DU
