Mawwiage...and Love

Hello all you love birds out there.  If you haven't noticed, today is the big V-day.  No, not Vampire Awareness Day, but Valentines Day.

If you are like the hubs and myself, you probably aren't going to do the whole card/candy/flowers thing.  Because seriously, every day is Valentine's Day for us (insert sickeningly sweet "awwwwwwww")

Waiting in line for a table for hours, and plunking down large sums of money for flowers that die in a week is not really my thing**.  Who needs romance when you have take-out chinese and an episode of Castle to watch?  Hubs figured out long ago that the key to my heart is not chocolate, (oh wait, actually, that kinda is) but a night in on the couch, in our jammies, watching Ancient Aliens.

**BUT if you are a teen and dating someone- TOTALLY different story.  It's like, required for your boyfriend to get you something for Valentines Day.  If he doesn't, you have my permission to dump his butt.

If you're married... Meh.  As long as you do Vday type stuff year 'round, I don't think it's a big deal not to celebrate it on the actual day.  Now, if hubs never gets you anything except on Vday?  Then by all means, celebrate the love till the break of dawn.

But seriously guys, just celebrate it all the time.  Send your wifey some flowers at work in August.  Give your hubs a back massage in March.  Go on a date (without your kids ;p)  Show your spouse that you love him/her all year round.  Trust me, it works SO much better that way.

Tell me friends, do you celebrate the big Vday?  What are your plans for today? 

P.S. Don't worry, we totally give something to Little Monster on Vday.  It's much more fun watching her face when she opens little presents.

P.P.S. and a BIG thank you to The Blogger Formerly Known As for the Stylish Blogger award!


AND a big Happy LOVE Day to all my bloggy lovey friends out there.  You truly make my days special!
