STUPID ASS VALENTINES!!

Ok, I hate that my first blog entry is a negative gripe about something, but, hey, what else am I good for?! I don't like Valentine's Day. I don't see the point! Can you please tell me what we're celebrating? Do you even know what your worshipping today? Its a made up holiday by Hallmark, thank you very much! Its not a celebration of love; aren't anniversaries better for the celebration of your love than some random day in the middle of a month that happened to have no other holiday?! Does this day have any meaning for you other than what they said it does? I think I finally broke Jon's spirit on the whole thing, but not completely cause he still got me a card. Our anniversary is in 2 weeks (8 years); can't it wait for that? Normal people can't even do anything on this day, because of all the other people caught up in the madness of the retail holiday!! My family went out last evening; we are about a month away from my daughter's birthday, and we are looking for places to do the party. So, we're driving around, checking out places, and Oh, well, we're already out, let's stop for a bite to eat. So we stop at Julian's for some take out (2 combo bowls will feed my family of 4, plus leftovers!) and so Jon goes in, and they aren't taking "take out" orders today. Great, fine, we'll go in. OH, NO, because they are RESERVATION ONLY today! What BS! We want to go out as a family, something we haven't done in quite a while, and just because this Wednesday happens to be a stupid holiday because Hallmark said so, we can't eat anywhere, because no one is seating unless you already have a reservation! Fast food, it is. Its still BS.

Ok, I'm done with my rant. Its not even a big deal anymore; I know it sounds like it is, ha ha, but I just thought I would share my opinion on the whole disgusting matter, cause that's what blogs are for!
