It is amazing when someone swoops into your stressful brain and lands a direct hit on stress with comfort and relief. Damn good feeling.

Now that’s a Valentine! Hope you said, “I did, but nothing compares to making you happy.”

Sounds like a lovely Valentine's gift that she gave you

Philippe's is never a wrong option. She's definitely a keeper. (50 years and counting, here.)

And Happy Valentine's Day

Honestly, though-- what's the plan?

The PayPal Mafia is unmaking the last 125 years of civil service and executive order, all in the name of corruption-"democracy"-de-bureaucratizing and it's impossibly bleak as a legal professional to contemplate what comes next.

Why this message under this post? Let people have a small break from it.

I think I speak for all of us when I wonder aloud how such a priceless gem has tolerated you all these years.

(Yes, I wonder the same thing about my wife as well.)

My daughter and her boyfriend order one of those heart shaped pizzas and play video games. They 32 and 33 lol.

Win for everyone involved!

You go Popehat, show em how it’s done (procrastination can pay off sometimes).

Yup! That's a keeper. You are blessed.

My wife said to me, unnecessarily, "So you know, I didn't get you anything for Valentine's Day." She gets me. We do stuff for each other whenever we feel like it. V-Day is not on our calendars.

Choose the lamb dip, lots of spicy mustard. Can't lose.

I asked mine if he’d made reservations and he looked at me like a deer in headlights and I was like “So, we’re going bowling and to play arcade games instead, right?” Indeed, we are. I am very excited.

Lucky man you are…

I said “Happy Valentine’s Day“ to my wife this morning. She had clearly forgot and sheepishly said the same. Saved, AND spared the valentines tax. ( I cook dinner every night not cover by takeout. )

Cooking on valentines night makes baby cupid cry.

You should’ve planned better, if you wanted a nice day and wonderful dinner that you prepared for your wife.. she probably knew you weren’t prepared and you confirmed so she let you off the hook! Do better next time.. you’ll be able to assure her you are well prepared to deliver!

julie-e-c.bsky.social•9 days ago

if i tell my husband i want takeout, i actually want takeout. it’s not some secret game we are playing. in a healthy committed relationship, people mean what they say

juanfoxx.bsky.social•9 days ago

That’s another thought … which is then 🤷‍♀️.. he wanted to cook as his gift to her?.. just wanted him to think about maybe she pivoted cus she knew he hadn’t planned well.. I’m done.. if they’re happy! If he knows it doesn’t apply like anything else that doesn’t he can disregard !
