I WISH I COULD COME
Oh, and two things in response to this thread:
1. Danno, I am terribly sorry to hear about the loss you suffered. I can't even imagine such a thing.
2. To me, the obligatory Valentine's Day gift giving seems an extremely shallow and hollow act. I make a vow right here and now, that if I am ever lucky enough to find myself in a loving relationship, I will NEVER buy a box of chocolates or give a crappy Hallmark card, or in fact, do ANYTHING for Valentine's Day out of an obligatory sense of duty to show my love. I will in fact, give gifts on any other day BUT Valentine's Day, what I WANT to give, WHEN I want to give it, and something that has MEANING, not some factory produced card. And on Valentine's Day, I will show my love in other, more meaningful ways than Hallmark or Hershey's could ever understand.
SO SWEARS PROTOCLOWN! (I had to end it with that comic book feel, sorry)
