Oh lucky me! I get to blog on Valentines Day!! I really think women put more significance on the day of love than men. And woe be upon the men in their lives who don’t treat it with the same respect! Why is it that women are more into romance than men? Making note to self to read the book Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars. We’re obviously wired differently. It’s incredible how differently. Granted there are some romantic men still out there, but it can’t be natural for them to be romantic. Face it, there are so many of them that forget birthdays, Valentines Day and anniversaries. I really think they’re just not wired to remember that it’s important.

My husband and I get so caught up in the rush of life we look at each other on our anniversary and say…”is it our anniversary? Damn!” We’ve gotten to the point that we tell each other not to get anything for Valentines Day. We did that this year and I was completely okay with that. I have a lot going on with my writing and I’m about to go out of town for a couple weeks, so that took the pressure off for buying a gift. Then what does he do? He brings home flowers! Argh! Now I feel like a complete slug. A complete slug with flowers….Ahhhhh…..It was a nice gesture and, yes, I’m happy he did it. Still, I only got him a gift pack of M&Ms. Slug! (bangs head on keyboard)
