Saint Valentine’s Day 2015

I have a bit of a problem with Valentine’s Day. On the calendar according to Bill, such a holiday would not be observed in this way. For in my HUMBLE opinion, Valentine’s Day is strictly a manufactured holiday, randomly selected, promoted shamelessly & strictly for the commercial advancement of others. There, I said it.

As soon as I finish this brief update, I am going to google Saint Valentine & find out the REAL story. You should to BEFORE you run out & buy cards, candy, flowers or participate in such nonsense. Or as I call it, financially draining.

Getting back on track, Bill’s calendar could & DOES contain an analogous such Holiday but it is slightly different. More personal, respectful AND Respectable.

SURPRISE, SURPRISE !! NOW EXPLAIN …

Sandy in Oregon, long time, no time … later.

Of course. On Bill’s calendar, the corresponding day is Lover’s Day. Or Bestest Friend’s day if you have trouble tossing around or problems with l-o-v-e.

So the name is different but the most radical change is that it is a FLOATING Holiday.

As such, random acts are encouraged & both parties can get more bang for their respective bucks. (SO sorry …)

But more later. I have a HUGE day of work scheduled, the weather is supposed to be delightful, Patty is coming over for Mass & an OLD TIME Valentine’s day activity (dinner out). I have a monitor on three explorers from Houston ‘camping out’ this weekend. FB, S2 & FBNextGen are camping out starting what is hoped to be and in the midst of a new family tradition. I smell STORIES developing ...

It was 15 in the sleeping room, 16 in the Great Hall when I got up & now a quick check on the back deck seems warmer than inside. The experts say the mercury is allegedly going to climb to 24 later today so, so so …

So there you have it. Bill out.

WAIT A MINUTE. WE NEED MORE DETAILS ON THE NEW VERSION OF LOVER’S DAY … (whiney)

OMG, LOL, it can be today just for you. You are so special. Grab your boy-toy of the moment, the best thing that ever happened to you, a spoon & get after it.

Make it happen. Dolt.

Again, before I get so RUDELY INTERRUPTED, Bill out.
