    I am taking my pet squirrel Chucky out to dinner. We are going to have acorns and mashed potatoes, and afterward I am going to tuck him into bed.

    Look her straight in the eye and ask her to go somewhere. K.I.S.S.
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    And I will got a direct slap in my face, and slammed to jail if I was unfortunate and get the police charges me "Sexual Harrasment" instead......... I means the slower ways to tell the girl that I care for her................. and love her too....... and tommorow is the best moment.......

    A headlong charge - with a kiss, before doing something else is nearly a suicide..... a very same way when you charge a cavalry unit headlong into phalanx formations.....

    You know how my Valentines day started? I woke up in my shitty little apartment on the edge of town in Szeged, went to take a shower and found out that the water did not work, so I went to the kitchen sink, washed my face and hands, dressed, went to the supermarket to do some shopping. Went home and found out that the woman had taken advantage of my foriegner status and wrang my fish fingers up three times (They cost 900 Forints each), then settled down on my computer to Skype call my gf and tell her something romantic. She was not signed into Skype, so I logged onto my email to see what was up. She got her eye scratched by her stupid cat this morning when she was playing with it. She is gonna be ok, but right now she has to put crap into it and she says it hurts a tonne. Now I am gonna go do some romantic laundry, clean my bathroom in a romantic fashion, take a much needed romantic nap (I have been getting VERY little sleep lately), then finish the day off by doing my Magyarora homework.


    (And if you think that is too much bad luck for a holiday, then you should have seen last Valentines day. We decided that we were gonna go to Romy's (It is a Nightengale that is locally very popular here and serves VERY good food). I go to her house to pick her up and she jumps into my arms and wedges her darned knee right into my darned testicles. I spent the rest of that night barely being able to move on her parents couch wishing that I could die, then she drove me home and wouldn't stop crying and apologizing. That was when I decided that Valentines day stinks.
    I didn't make any of that up either. Valentines day really stinks.

    Update: We went to Mucenae and Nemea (where Hercules killed the lion). There was no lion but we took the local wine road and went wine tasting in a recommended winemaker. We left with 9 bottles of wine :)

    We have some cool pics. I ll make an album later...

    I hope you broke those jokesters teeth in. Boy or girl. People who do that are usually trying to deflect judgement on themselves.

    I got my first kiss on valentines day. A short dry affair but an affair none the less. Those were simpler times. I was eleven. Holding hands was scandalous and beer tasted like crap. Needles to say I don't miss those times.

    Also the first girl I ever kissed is now preggers and married at 18, so I'm glad I got her outta my system early.

    To all the hopeless romantics of the Org. Good luck tomorrow and remember if you don't bed your women you get your man card revoked. but not really~!!!!!!

    lol, I do not bed my women (or my squirrels ). I am confident that the woman I marry will be worth waiting for, and hopefully appreciate that I found her so.

    My first girlfriend dumped me on Valentine's Day a few years ago (My main regret is that it happened after I spent a lot of money... ). Thankfully subsequent ones have gone better.

    Mrs. Zim and I are rather lacking in funds this year but we have some plans...

    Look Beefy, you shouldn't be sad. I meant that rose and everything on that card.

    We miss you man! My 18th is tomorrow, and there is no beefy!

    Also, I've never gotten anything for valentines day, even when I had a girlfriend.

    Actually, it has its roots in old folk traditions, but is just exploited like everything else. People just need to use their brains and get a life. I am not saying that getting your girl flowers is a bad thing (my first girl loved them), but people get obsessed.

    I haven't received a Valentine since age 7, when Margaret Conway gave me one, and cried that I hadn't given her one (nobody had 'splained Val Day to me).

    I have learned that the women I've been "with" (married, or girlfriend) expected something on Valentine's Day. A card, at minimum. I've forgotten a few times, and they've gotten a little pouty for a day or two - so I've learned to pay more attention.

    Ms. K gets a nice card with her morning coffee, and a pajama-gram later, if the Post Office comes through.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    I'd send you a box of chocolates, but by the time it arrives in Nippon they'd probably be melted anyway V_V

    Three cheers to the coolest Japanese guy of the internets!

    In my high school one can buy roses with some sort of note/message attached; these are sent to the appropriate official class mailboxes, and our OC teachers hand them out on the Homeroom day closest to Valentines (this year, it was today).

    Let me tell ya, it's really amusing watching girls attempt to stuff their massive haul of flowers into their lockers.

    Many even buy small bags from the school for the sole purpose of carrying the roses.

    It should be noted that something like a quarter of the roses are from one guy to another guy, and half from one girl to another.
