Happy Valentine’s Day everybody! Now, apart from that picture pandering to Han’s obsessive love for kittens and cats, you may be surprised to know that myself and Han sat down last night, talked for a few hours, and came to the same conclusion.

Valentine’s Day, it’s not that great.

This is only the second Valentine’s day ever for me that I’ve had a girlfriend, and - whilst I begged my ex two years ago for a card (as I never had one before), this year I’m slightly melancholy. I’m not going to boast about getting a card from somebody either, as being single on Valentine’s Day can be depressing, if hugely bloggable (I refer you to Mayogate - as Fern called it - last year). Truth be told I was actually very miserable that day, being the only one in the house not upto my nuts in guts.

Maybe it’s just me, but if you care about somebody, why do it especially on one day per year?

Anyway, happy Valentine’s Day everybody, whatever and whoever you decide to do. You may now leave your undying declarations of love in the comment box. Or show off by how much you spent on that smoke message written in the sky.

Jake and I both think it’s silly too, but send cards anyway.

“Maybe it’s just me, but if you care about somebody, why do it especially on one day per year?” ..because it’s far too expensive to send flowers every day?

Happy Valentine’s Day grumpyguts. :P

I don’t have any truck with it, I think it’s all hysterical marketing bollocks.

*wanders off, grumpily, to find some lovers to growl at*

I’m spending my valentines writing talks and problem sheets for 13 year olds cos I was stupid enough to agree to do a “Maths masterclass” on Saturday at the uni and its turning into a lot of work :-( should be fun though I guess

I’ve renamed today “Valenstein’s Day”, and I totally ripped off your adorable cat pic. ;)


 
Comment by Manuel

Very cute picture. Valentine’s Day, although I love it, is really a bad “holiday” because it can really make people feel bad about their current situation.

Just read this on your forum, think people seeing your blog but not on forums should know about it, a very good interview I must admit.

And I’m excited about the old blog (Art of Rhysisms) coming back, there was some good stuff in it

It’s true, Valentines day is pants. Though I did make cards with my Primary school students and it was very cute! Also in Japan you have to give chocolate to your co-workers on Valentines day, meaning that nobody really feels left out.

You'll need more than just a big house and a lot of patience for a marriage with eight kids !! That doesn't even account for the family pet goat who needs constant feeding ! Secrets are difficult to hide and personality clashes tough to avoid but it aint sibling rivalry all the way. Mum n Dad have got more than enough love to go around.
