Grumpy Valentines day to you too!

love_110004730-012814-intI would like to thank Hallmark cards and florists and chocolatiers for the one day a year where men get to feel the most inadequate. It never seems to be the right card, standing in front of the massive selection trying to find a card that “just right” one that is not the same as the one you gave her last year. Especially if you are married, the flowers have to look expensive but not too expensive as to break the family budget and the candy must say I love you but not overdo it to the point where it gets you into a conversation about any ones diet. Yes, it is a veritable land mine of a day for men all over the world. One I am glad is over for another year. I am lucky, as are some of you guys out there that my wife doesn’t have high expectations for the day. That is either that I have done such a poor job of it in the past so she knows not to expect much of me, or she gets that I love her all year long and she doesn’t need a fake day from Hallmark to know that. I would like to think it is the latter.
