I’m not much of a Valentine’s Day person–the commercial side of it, I mean. Except for the boxes of chocolate. But I’ll take boxes of chocolate any time of year, not just Valentine’s Day!
I loved Valentine’s Day when I was a kid. I loved making a Valentine’s card pouch to hang on my desk and getting all those cards from the other kids in my class. I still have them, decorated with Rainbow Brite, Transformers, GI Joe, and other cartoon heroes of the 80s.
Um…there was something else I was going to say, but I’ve completely forgotten it. My memory is getting terrible. I had to actually start using the free day planner that I got at the day job so I can try to keep track of everything.
EDIT: I remembered what I was going to say. It was about last night’s Veronica Mars. KIND OF SPOILERY if you haven’t seen the episode yet. The thing that bugged me the most about last night’s episode is the older sister running off with Dick and leaving the little girl with Logan. The little girl tells Logan that her family isn’t from Neptune, they just vacation there. We’re led to believe that Dick and the older sister just met recently. So the older sister runs off with Dick and leaves her eleven-year-old sister with an eighteen-year-old guy she barely knows? I mean, WE know it’s Logan and he’s not going to do anything to the girl, but the older sister doesn’t know that. Of course, the girls Dick hangs out with aren’t ever very bright, are they?
(You can make your own heart here.)
Yeah, that whole storyline was messed up. It also bugged me that supposedly the parents wouldn’t notice the girl was missing because they were away for a few days. Which I could believe until I found out they were supposed to be on vacation there. Are the parents usually in the habit of taking their kids on vacation and then being gone for half of the week? 😛
I was thinking that same thing about the parents being gone. I guess the parents went off on a second vacation of their own during the first vacation! 😉
