Valentine's Day is not a big deal to me. I'm not sure if that's because I've been married for 13 years, or maybe age has something to do with it and I see more commercialism than romance in Valentine's Day. I've made a little story this week. You can follow my quick little story in the blue boxes.
Imagine you're single again, or maybe you're single now and looking. You decide to try a dating service…
Perfect Date Dating Video
Did you recognize who that was in the video? If you've ever watched iCarly, you probably did. Jeremy Rowling plays everyone's (at least in my family) favorite, gross doorman, Lewbert.
Well… That whole dating service didn't work out for ya, so you're back at the clubs…
Sloppy Pickup Artist – Episode #1
Yeah. I probably would've had the same reaction she did, if someone had come up to me with that line. Looks like it worked though. What's the craziest pick-up line you ever heard?
Hellooo? You've only been on a couple of dates, but you're sure he/she is your soulmate. Things are getting serious… for you anyway, but does he/she feel the same?
Dinner Conversation
Gay or not, this is an awkward conversation.
Success! The two of you are spending your first Valentine's Day together. Now, how are you going to make it special? With chocolate, of course!
Chocolate Mocha Pot de Crème
What's Valentine's Day without chocolate? Looks delicious, doesn't it? You will find all the measurements at Food Wishes. It's been reported that $345 million dollars is spent during Valentine's Day week on this yummy stuff.
How do you end the evening? You exchange gifts. And what could be more romantic to give or be the recipient of this very special gift…?
Valentine's Day Special
This still cracks me up. I like Mother Lover too. Funny stuff. :)
How are you spending Valentine's Day this year? For me, I'm sure it will be like any other day. I hope that, whether you celebrate Valentine's Day or not, your day is extra special just for visiting me here. :)

I love that SNL clip..hilarious. Valentine’s Day is also the anniversary of when I “met” my husband. I knew him through my bro-in-law, but I got his email address and sent him an Anti-Valentine’s Day message asking him to call me..lol..he hates VDay too. So we just call it an anniversary and celebrate. Our favorite thing to do is sneak out of the house (kids still snoozing) and get a big diner breakfast and sit drinking coffee til we have to leave. We got each other some great gifts this year, so that was it for us. We got the kids chocolates, then I pulled them out of school early and took them out to eat. I truly hope I am never on the dating scene again. I was single for ten years working three jobs before I realized I wanted to date. I hate it.
I love the idea of sneaking out of the house for a diner breakfast! I think Kim and I will have to adopt this idea.nnAs for the kids… well, kid now, since everyone else is all grown-up. Jacob didn’t get anything from me and I didn’t do anything special for him because he says “it’s just weird for a mom to do anything”. But I know that he and some girlie-girl exchanged gifts at school.
