Valentine's Day Support Thread

[carsonshepherd]

Yeah, it's that time of year again, when the greeting card industry tells us we should get our sweetie overpriced flowers or candy, and/or take them out to a crowded restaurant. And if we don't have a sweetie, the greeting card industry tells us we should feel like crap.

All I ask is that nobody give me any cute stuffed animals this year. I just took a whole bunch of them up in the attic.

Anyone else feeling cynical? Or you can scold me for being cynical if you want. I don't mind.

In college, my roommates and I had a new name for Valentine's day (and yes, we were all single at the time): Anti-Fluffy Bunny Day.

I'm boycotting V-Day. No sweetie for me, no stuffed animals, no flowers. I might buy myself some chocolate, tho.

In my closet, I had two stuffed fluffy bunnies, two teddy bears, and five (five!) stuffed doggies. No adult should own that many stuffed animals! Stop giving them to me people!!!

Absolutely.
I may even buy myself one of those really big stuffed bears. I had one that I cuddled with and I lost it in the hurricane. You'd think the water damage could have been more thoughtful.

We still have a nigh-on ten-year-old stuffed crocodile. It's about five feet long.

Try working that into your home decor.

My 2 yo daughter would ride it. She has a stuffed animal fetish. She sleeps with approximately ten, one of which is always tucked under the blankets with her. Her room is like the stuffed animal department of Toys r us. It's insane.

One of my stuffed doggies is a very realistic-looking German shepherd, nearly life-sized, posed lying down. We always think that fucking thing is real. *hates it* Although actually, it's the best one of the bunch.

Sounds like me growing up. At one point, I had well over 100 teddy bears plus other various animals.

I'll send you some chocolates and flowers. If you want a stuffed animal I have four or five big boxes full in the atic. What kind do you want, dog, cat, bunny, bear, frog, dragon, shark, turtle, squirrel, snake, Elmo, Cookie Monster, Big Bird, (grandkids where really into Sesame Street), camel, lion, tiger, lamb, etc., etc., etc.

You know, I got that wrong... It was Anti-Fuzzy Bunny Day. Not a big difference, but still, lol.

Lol.
We have lots. But what I want is one really big one. I almost bought myself one at Christmas, and then I saw the gleam in my daughter's eye and I knew I'd never get my hands on it if I brought it home. Sometimes it's just a big bed for only me, ya know?

Not that I'm sad about it or anything.

V-Day is a holiday I try very hard to ignore. I've gotten good at it over the years. Can't remember the last time I gave or received anything on that day.

And carson, if you don't want sarahh's pussy, I'll take it off your hands.

I'm trying hard NOT to get my husband something cuddly this year, it's difficult 'cos I'm so sappy and I know he's just as sappy too *L* Valentine's day might not happen on Valentine's day for us...it might be a weekend where we can loose the daughter to a grandma or a grandad
