true love is every day.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again:  I object to Valentine's Day, but not for the reasons you think.

Those of you who enjoy it, by all means, go right ahead.  Have a great time.  I'm very Unitarian/libertarian (note the lowercase L, please)/laissez-faire that way.  But I wish more of us took the time to wonder if today's chocolates taste better, if today's jewelry sparkles brighter, if today's flowers are more floral and today's declarations of love are more sincere because it happens to be the 14th.

When someone tells me he loves me, I'd like it to be because he can't not tell me -- not because the calendar told him he'd better.

I know, like right. And the fact that I still remember those lines, and the goldenrod polyester shirt, says something.

Oh, I still have the vacancy sign. It's at my parents house, but I still have that.
