Today I will be celebrating the horrible holiday known as Valentine's Day. If you are a hopeless romantic then you may want to not read any further. Because I hate this day. I HATE IT! If you know me you know that I refer to this travesty as VD as I find it nearly as appealing. Why do I hate it so much? I am glad you asked. It seems that Valentine's Day is supposed to be a magix fix-all for relationships. One day set aside to prove to your partner how much you love them. Except who ususally succeeds? Not many. One or both of the partners will end up disapointed. This of course does not include everyone but a frieghtening percentage of those I have known fall victim to this day. And if it doesn't live up to the expectations then look for problems, because they are a'comin'. And there is nothing quite like disapointed passive agression.
In my humble opinion I believe that you should treat every day like it is special. Take time every day to make your partner feel loved. Take time to reaffirm your passion for each other. And treat every day as an opportunity for "Valentine's Day Sex".
So why I am celebrating? Because my husband, though he agrees with my philosphy enjoys the opportunity to pamper me. And I am not saying no to that.
So this is how we will be celelbrating our non Valentine Valentine Day.
First off we are shipping the kid to my parents. But not just to spend the night. See my parents don't like each other that much. The days of proving their love are long since past. So Valentine's Day for them, like so many others, means angry, sad, disapointment. So I have endevored to change that. On the day that my husband and I decide to celebrate we send the kid to the parents with some money. She gets to spend the week before planning what she wants to do with them. Then she suprises them with an evening out on her. We give her some money and she gets to treat them to an evening out. This year she has planned to take them to the movies, dinner and then they are going for ice cream afterward at grandpa's favorite ice cream parlor. Then they will go back to grandma and grandpas and play board games until bed. This way everyone has a good time and the romantic expectations have been taken away so noone ends up disapointed. Plus it gets the kid out of the house. and then the good times start.
I have had steaks marinating since Thur night so they will be super tender. I will be cooking steak, homemade mashed taters and some fresh green beans. My husband's favorite meal. A movie I have been waiting for a long time to see has already been picked up and is waiting, so we will be watching Wild Target. I do love Bill Nighy. In any case once we have finished the movie the tv gets switched to fireplace mode. Then I have been told I will receive a full body massage and a pedicure. After I manage to recover from the comfy coma my husband has informed me that he will be spending the next 2 hours kissing and licking every erogenous zone on my body. Yes, please! But no sex until we have hit the 2 hour mark. This will most likely turn me into a dripping pile of goo but he knows what happens then. Sex so good that it is probably illegal. He will fuck me until I pass out. Mmmmmm.... then once I wake Sunday morning he will have breaksfast waiting for me. Mmmmm.....
Now this isn't actually to different than most dinner and a movie VD but it really is. It's not about spending money. It's not about going out. it's about staying in and enjoying the wonderfulness that is each other. And then the next day, Sunday night I will turn it out for him. He will be tied up. He will be lit on fire. He will be kissed and beaten and treated like a dirty little slut. And he will love it! and I will love it! And there will be much love in the air.
So those are my VD plans. They are fantastic, but not because it is VD.

i love you! i was tempted to post a similar blog but you said it all. love should be celebrated every single day. it is not a corporation based holiday meant to make you feel guilty so that you spend alot of money. besides, if you are in a relationship in which valentines day has to remind you that you care for your significant other, id suggest you re-evaluate your concept of love.
thanks for posted this. I love that we think so alike!!
Exactly! I am so lucky to have you in my life! Big hugs!
