Valentine's Day is almost over according to the digital clock on my Macbook Pro. No flowers for me this year, not even a picture of one via text message. Evidently fishing(I'm not buying it but it is what he said) is more important or more interesting or exciting...whatever. I understand. I still love Valentine's Day. I watched my grandsons so my beautiful daughter and her handsome husband could go out for a romantic dinner. Young parents need date night especially on Valentine's. I hear people say, mostly single women, that it is just another day. I guess it is just another day if you want it to be. I want it to be fun and romantic. Since I didn't have a date and short on cash myself I cruised the internet for Valentine's Day stuff, cute pics, sexy pics, where it originated-pretty good stuff! Wikipedia, my personal favorite source of all things I used to look up in Encyclopedia Britannica, informed me St. Valentine was a third century Roman saint that died on February 14. Did you know the flower-crowned skull of St. Valentine is exhibited in the Basilica of Santa Maria in Cosmedin, Rome? I could have lived without knowing that! Anyway, I am not giving up my romantic idea's of Valentine's Day and besides, tomorrow is Friday nite-can't beat that! Happy Valentine's Day, flowers or no flowers, date or no date, there is always next year! kisses
