Ooh. What's Trekka's prize? Should we all be envious?

How do you know that I didn't slip into Trekka-vile and offer her a nice prize package....

 

[ChainedUp]

You are so welcome for keeping your thread warm and going strong. I'm a very good thread keeper.

I'm all about efficiency, I knew if I didn't expressly thank you, you'd say "you're welcome"...... i call it "implied efficiency".

 

[Trekka]

I'm psyched. I never win anything!!

As an engineer, I appreciate that. And I know you didn't want to show your full love for me in the open. I get it.

Is it weird if this turns me on?!

Let's see......how do I do this?

Is it really like riding a bike, just getting on it and going? What is something you know for a fact you won't ever forget? I'm sure there's wedding days, childbirth, funerals that will never be forgotten so I'm excluding those from the choice of answers. Something more unique, abstract, something that the second it happened you knew it'd be with you forever.

Dancing to "where did our love to" in my bedroom last year with my husband before heading out to Oktoberfest. Core memory right there.

Muscle memory is a form of procedural memory (which itself is the first type of long term memory) that involves consolidating a specific motor task into memory through repetition. In this regard, acted actions are EXACTLY like riding a bike; you never forget.

Declarative memory is the other form of long term memory and involves facts, general knowledge, and personal experiences, which seems to be the type of memory being called into question, contrary to the muscle memory example used. The interesting thing is someone can lose their declarative memory and not lose their muscle memory.

There are many things that I remember aside from funerals, weddings and births. In fact I have had the ability to have an argument with someone and stop in the middle, then five or ten years later, meet up with the person I had the argument with and resume from exactly where we left off.

That said, there was one incident that I recall out of many. A couple in a bar about 30 years ago, were walking around with her on his shoulders like they were doing chicken fights. I was standing behind them and remember thinking "they are falling down drunk (no pun intended) and will stumble resulting with her cracking her skull open." So I, since I was always sober in any bars back then, positioned myself directly behind them wherever they went. My reasoning was; if they fell forward, their hands should stop them, but if they fell backwards...

I didn't have long to wait because within five minutes, they were falling backwards. I put my hand on both his and her back, and supported them so that neither fell and until he got his footing again. Smartly, she got off his shoulders, with him following after me to thank me.

I said "You want to thank me? Then use your head more often, because next time I won't be there!"

One of the first times I remember that feeling of recognizing a forever moment - I was about 10 years old. My whole family - parents, sisters, aunts, uncles and grandparents - had rented a few cabins on a lake up north in the middle of the winter. We spent the weekend ice skating, snowmobiling, ice fishing... it was wonderful.

But the forever moment was one evening when all of us were gathered around a large table, the adults were passing around the schnapps, we were playing a silly card game and laughing until our tummies hurt. I remember looking around at the most important people in my little world and feeling so completely happy and safe. I knew and know I'll remember it forever.

Happy Monday, time to scurry out and pick up that Valentine's Day card. Maybe a box of chocolates. Dinner plans made? If not, you're screwed with that plan, better fire up the grill

So who celebrates this holiday? Is the newly in love? Is it the young, the old? Why is it so despised? If you aren't actively involved with someone, does it really make you feel vulnerable and alone?

I celebrate no matter what. I love hiding little treats and notes for my kids. Other valentine celebraters don't nauseate me ...I love seeing love. This year I have no formal plans but I do hope to sneak in an extra squeeze or two with my other. The giant snowstorm happening right now has other plans though.

Mr and I don't celebrate. Never have, it's all good in my book.
And I eat chocolate daily, so I spoil myself 365 days of the year.

While I'm delighted that you think I'm cool, I'm not a lesbian. I believe the buzzword du jour is heteroflexible.

Pmann, you cannot keep telling yourself that every girl who refuses to show you her tits is a lesbian.

Flexibility is good for many things

When I was younger, every year I went out and would get a single rose in a vase and maybe some baby's breath, for all the ladies I worked with, regardless of status. I did this all on the QT so, although it was never given out before I was hired, I suspect they all knew it was me.

in my mid thirties, I started to not continue this practice.

I've never had problems being single on valentines day, though I have felt the sting of being at a table alone at a restaurant on valentines day and felt like everyone was watching. Then again, most people did that anyways any time I was out and alone eating by myself.

I've never despised valentines day, though I suspect any that do, do so only because the onus of society is that valentines day should be for couples and everyone should be a couple on that day.

V-Day can choke to death on my cock.

I don't do Valentine's Day. I've experienced it single, dating, in a committed relationship, and as a married woman. In all instances, it just held no appeal for me. I guess I'm just not that into romance.

I AM in to half priced chocolates and I'll be stocking up on the 15th. Freezes beautifully!

 

[Suz_anne]

I'm with Ruby - I'm a fan of a holiday that celebrates love. I don't think that is limited to romantic love, so I send Valentines to dear friends and family.

The celebration with my husband tends to be low key - like ordering a heart shaped pizza and watching a hockey game together. And boning. That's my kind of romance.

Ok..can we talk about the blizzard that has cancelled life in the entire province for a second? How will I get discounted chocolate if I can't find my truck? ? That grey tinge. ..in the centre...is my vehicle...the roof!
