Valentine's Day is a fucking holiday in my household.
My wife and I had our first date on Valentine's day. That afternoon - like two thousand years ago - I asked her if she had plans for that night in front of her friends. She ranted about how she was going to buy and burn a Valentine's day card with her friends. (She did too - and the fire department got called!) After I left her friends said "Way to get a date" and a short time later she came up to me, handed me her phone number, and we agreed to meet that night at a local bar. We stayed out till the bar closed, and that first kiss was the kiss the end all kisses. The following night I spent the night at her house, and every night after that.
Our daughter's middle name is Valentine; She loves pink and hearts and Valentine's Day is like Christmas all over again. She comes home from school to find presents waiting. My wife gets treats too.
I can't wait for it this year!
