This Valentine’s Day was
different from others at least it was for me.
In a complete role reversal my wife got me a card, chocolates and a gift
(pajamas) and cooked me lamb chops. In staying within our budget all I did was to
give her a card and three roses. I got her a humorous card though instead of the usual
syrupy red or pink wife card. Not that there is anything wrong with them, it's just that she has a whole collection of those already. Also, I am not a
fan of the cards that play music or are the size of 30 inch TV screens. My
card featured a caveman carving messages in stone like, “wife hot as
fire, wife smell good, wife pretty like flower, wife think good.” I think I really
scored on the “wife think good” one, but really I think it was the “wife hot as fire” one that was as the
French say, le coup de grâce. My wife gave me a
syrupy red husband card but after her showering me with love and
affection who cares.
This Valentines Day seemed a little different for others too. Last night at the store I saw many men and women buying up cards, flowers and candy at the last minute. I could feel such energy and affection in the air. It was cool to see so many lucky people out there that have someone. Love was the reason they were out there and me too.
