Opinion of Valentine's Day

FF

I've always enjoyed it.  In high school, it's a chance to borrow mom's Lincoln, take your sweetie somewhere special, and maybe leave a big mess in the back seat of the Lincoln.  In college, I worked at a florist for about a year, and it was one of our busiest delivery days, bested only by Mother's Day.  And, as a floral delivery guy, you meet quite a few pretty girls on Valentine's Day.  (not so with Mother's Day)  Later in life, it gets more expensive, especially if you're seeing more than one woman mid-February.  Still, it's fun.  Even later in life, you get to help pick out the cheesy little packs of cards with Spider Man or The Hulk (or, I suppose, Kittens if you have a little girl) and give your kid a bag of candy and cards to share with the class, and he comes home with lots of tooth-rotting candy to share with you and your old lady.  It's really one of the special days of the year.

Happy VD!

I received a ten-motor massage seat cushion with heat.  I'm sitting on it now.  It straps on to my swivel desk chair and when I push a button it vibrates.  There are six different vibration settings.  It also gets hot.  I'm not sure how hot it gets because it takes a while to heat up.
