I propose that Valentine's Day should also be combined with: "Free All You Can Drink Margaritas Day." Sure it is a mouthful but with free margaritas on the table no one will be care (or remember).
That way if Valentine's Day does not quite work out the way you planned you have a very good (and preferable) option.
I am yet to find anyone who loves VD.
It is usually a lose - lose either way.
Firstly is the obvious, if you are not in a relationship. If that is the case then VD is a day to remind you of how you don't quite cut it as a desired mate and may very well end up alone FOREVER! (See, at this point margaritas would come in handy.) Who needs a day to remind you of that when you remind yourself at five minute intervals already?
Secondly, is if you are in a relationship. Now this should be easy...right? Well not always. In fact, I think VD is even worse when you are actually in a relationship and VD still lets you down. Excuses like: "VD is too commercial and is a waste of time." "We have been going out for too long to need to worry about VD." And the classic, "I don't need a day to tell you I love you." To which you reply: "Well actually you do because every other day you forget, so at the very least can you give me this one f***en day!"
Oh VD how we love you for making us feel so special and so loved.
Only I may just have to go with Door Number Two if you don't mind: Margaritas. (Now they never let you down!)
(Note to self: VD does not give you an excuse to skip training and re-enact scene from Bridget Jones's Diary where she is in pyjamas, drinking vodka and singing "All By Myself.")
