213: Cherry Cola

my snazzy new vest...
It's 7:00 Sunday Morning.
I'm sitting here now listening to the Eagles of Death Metal, and thinking about Valentine's day a bit. The Eagles of Death Metal are so good. Back to Valentine's day, I know it's hallmark holiday and all, but do you want to be the guy that makes a protest on this and does nothing? Talk about dead man walking. That story just doesn't end well. Diane and I always have the debate about Valentine's day. She contends it's a chick holiday, and they don't have to get stuff for the dude. I think that logic is kinda of a jip. I bailed on it once. I stated that I knew it was Valentine's day and I refused to participate. That did not go over well.

Last year we did the special valentine's meal here. It was good. Maybe I'll play it safe and make a reservation... So what's your take? Do you celebrate valentine's day? is it a chick only holiday, or is that just lame.



"so, what do you think Steve? Chick only holiday?"


This is Vince.
I just met him. Nice guy. Rides tough with 2 hours of sleep and a hangover

Steve really is the toughest of all. So gross, and another reason, I'll never go hiking in the winter. yikes.


Saturday night we did a little bouldering.


a little top rope too.

heights still really freak me out...

respect.

faticus.

I hate V-day. Last year I went climbing for V-day. It was so nice, no crowds were in the gym!

Valentine's day is a wonderful excuse for cuddling, skiing, fire-places and kanoodling.

in keeping with my scathing hatred and general contempt for da man, however...

I firmly and decidedly veto flowers, cards, facials and jewelry.

my betrothed may, however, feel free to purchase me chocolate.


lots and lots of chocolate.

I'm with you, I could forgo the whole ordeal as it's definitely a chick thing but I'm also not going to be the guy who tries first.

Dinner and a card, definitely no flowers. I reserve those for getting myself out of trouble.

You can't win. My husband proposed on Valentine's Day and I almost said, "No effing way cheeseball. Valentine's Day? You bastard." See? You can't win. My advice? A card, chocolate, and remember to put the toilet seat down. That's a winning combo.

I think Valentine's Day is definitely a Hallmark holiday. I abstain from celebrating. Maybe it's because the love is gone in my marriage....

15% of U.S. women send themselves flowers on Valentine's Day.

I am going to celebrate it this year, I've been a hater for a long time. I'm going to try adopting a fresh new lovey attitude this year, will get back to you on the progress.

It's a chick thing but that's like calling gravity a physics thing. Card, small gift and/or dinner.
