Happy days!!!!!

:XD I like all the different 'holidays' that we're making this into.

I always hated Valentines day- it seemed so forced and even when I wasn't single I wasn't much into the forced mushy crap.

This year Chris & I are going to get together with friends & go out for dim sum and watch the dragon dance in Chinatown :yes:

Any plans?

Lethargie 02-11-2010 05:29 AM

I'm assuming my boyfriend will be working on valentine's day,
but maybe afterwards we'll go out to eat somewhere and enjoy the night.

i was never much into valentine's day,
especially when i was the weird kid the teacher forced other kids to buy valentines for.
and i never understood why ONE day was put aside to say you love someone.

I suppose it is nice to have a day to remind us to appreciate the people in our lives that we care about - but it's so commercialized at this point.

I believe in Roman times this was a festival to celebrate spring - but I could be confused and totally off . . . but I think I remember reading that in one of the Valentines books I've been looking through for story time ideas lately

magikjaz 02-11-2010 09:19 AM

this is actually the first V-day in 10 years that me and hubby are gonna be able to celebrate together. Since he's a chef usually he has to work and feed all the other couples with his awesome food. I honestly don't know what we're gonna do. At this point in time we're contemplating a movie (Valentine's Day - his choice) dinner (sushi!!!) and dessert (Cold Stone Creamery) with a visit to our fave bartender at our local afterwards.

We wanted to do something new and different for food, but all the places we wanted to go to were charging over $100 a couple for their "special V-day menus"

I_live_in_illusens 02-11-2010 02:45 PM

Happy V-day/singles awarness day/let's make hallmark rich day. ^.^
Never really liked V-day, though I think it's mostly cause I've always been sinlge so there's never really been a purpose for it in my life. This year my friends and I are going to try and throw an anti-v-day party that saturday before. lol

morquarwen 02-11-2010 02:52 PM

Ugh snow - I bet we have close to 3 and a half feet here. How much got dumped on you Si? I have a friend way up north in Dubois and shes only got about a foot!!

XxPERFECTxMESSxX 02-11-2010 02:53 PM

HAPPY EVERYTHING DAY!
since there is so many different things we can put into this.
like 4 of my friends birthdays are on sunday along with valentines day and whatever else is this week XD

Floppy 02-11-2010 02:56 PM

Yoo too Sia!

Queen_Andais 02-11-2010 03:41 PM

*stumbles in* I are here and blah to spending V Day alone again this year. Perhaps it's time to start the sun bathing for the year. Going to the beach could be fun.

shinigamikarasu 02-11-2010 03:54 PM

I've never done much for Valentines Day. Just me and my friends sharing a bit of chocolate. It's pointless if your single, but at least the cheap holiday candy is back. :)

Mama Juru 02-11-2010 03:55 PM

Hello purkles! Hope you all are enjoying the event so far :)

Queen_Andais 02-11-2010 03:59 PM

*shrugs* So far, so good I suppose. Seems like a simple enough event, hoping to get a few extra sets for my give away at the end of the year. *nods*

kasorin 02-11-2010 04:07 PM

Valentine's day... never really cared much for it after Elementary school. Middle school was boring and lame, High school was mostly avoiding everyone who were couples and wishing that I would get chocolate. Now it's more hiding in my room and trying to ignore the day all together. This year, I get to work on Valentine's. What fun.

XIntoxicated PenguinX 02-11-2010 04:10 PM

I had to shovel my parents' driveway before heading into work. :headdesk: not fun, and I had to do it by myself because I get into work early in the a.m. and everyone else hit their snooze alarms. ugh. anywhoo
Happy V-day and Chinese New Year! =3

Mama Juru 02-11-2010 04:11 PM

I haven't been in to Valentine's Day for Years. Probably because I'm a jaded cynic at this point in my life but I have seen some people together that are made for each other.

One year I sent out anti Valentine's Day cards. :)

We tried to make the event easy and fun since some of the feedback we had received said the previous ones were too hard, so hopefully you all will enjoy it.

Blazestorm 02-11-2010 04:12 PM

*pops back in*
Hard to say about the event so far, Juru... given that so far, it's just collecting hearts. I like the games options, but am a bit apprehensive about the clue bit to collect the items, to be honest. I don't know these forums very well at all and am likely to have some difficulties following the clues.

Mama Juru 02-11-2010 04:17 PM

I think you'll be find Blaze. You've been around here long enough and I'm sure one of us would help you if you got stuck.

Blazestorm 02-11-2010 04:22 PM

*nod* No doubt I'll get some famous purkle assistance if it's needed, Juru, but I still don't know the forums here very well. The only reason I've had any luck following the clues in the past is because of similarities to Zan's forums. I just don't surf here... the threads I post in, I have subscriptions to -- I couldnt' tell you which forums most of them are in! ;)

How are you doing, by the way?
