Don't Make a Fuss About Valentine's Day
BackgroundMy dearest wife is always going on and on and ON about NOT making a fuss over her on Valentine's Day. She repeats that it's the thought that counts.
Well, I put a lot of thought into the gifts from previous February 14ths but she didn't quite take to any of them like I assumed she would. Here's my list - see what you think:
Brand new mop and bucket. I was thinking it would be fun to see what colour the floor was because I couldn't remember.
Romantic dinner at fast food restaurant.
I was thinking that she might like to go inside for a change instead of fetching dinner at the drive through.
Chocolates left-over from last year's candy box. I was thinking of how proud she'd be of me for not wasting food. She's been nagging me for years to recycle.
Midnight moped ride through the park. I was thinking that I'm getting too old to be peddling on the bike.
Dozen roses printed on high quality photo paper. One of my favourites things! I was thinking these would last a lifetime instead of just a week.
45 second back massage. I was thinking any longer and she might think I was interested in something else.
Windows 8.1 I was thinking how proud she would be to be a part of the technology crowd.

Exactly my sentiments too. I don't like the way in which events are commercialized.
PS
Boy, are you in trouble!
No, I won't tell you. You will soon discover
Well, all I can say is she was a woman with a great deal of restraint not to have eaten all the chocolates from one year to the next..
Mine never last the day
Very funny..
So just make sure you also have your sleeping blanket and pillow ready to be a special guest with accommodations in the dog-house that she will be providing you on Valentine's Day for the next three months
BTW, is that you in that military uniform? ... mind providing your name, rank, and serial number at the front desk?!!!
Methinks, you think too much...
dang! See what I mean?...
You two.....
I Know! Right.
Them two guys....

Paper Roses
I realized the way your eyes deceived me
with tender looks that I mistook for love
So take away the flowers that you gave me
And send the kind that you remind me of
Paper Roses
Paper Roses
Oh how real those roses seem to be
But they're only imitation,
Like you imitation love for me
I thought that you would be a perfect lover
You seemed so full of sweetness at the start
But like a big red rose that's made of paper
There isn't any sweetness in your heart
Paper Roses
Paper Roses
Oh how real those roses seem to be
But they're only imitation like you imitation love for me
If It's not real its imitation...just like love
Love the fact that you still keep the single rose that your son gave you when he was a young boy....
If your missing valentine cupcakes eith Cat or Wallops has them. I am totally innocent!
You are right. Sometimes I think to much then get into trouble.
Me in the uniform was my other life.
