Simple America

This is my Valentines Day tag courtesy of Plink. No subterfuge here, just the facts.

1. What did you do for last Valentine’s?
I worked and then I chased about with the kids until I collapsed. Just another day.

2. What are you planning to do for next Valentine’s?
Planning on taking my daughter to the doctor since I could not get an appointment Monday. Go pick up the kids some chocolate hearts or something. The missus is in Canada and I have no idea where. Hope she calls and she does usually call everyday.

3. What would be the ideal place to celebrate Valentine’s?
I would like to pick one of the romantic cities. San Antonio, TX, New Orleans, or Sante Fe, NM come to mind real quick. Paris for her, though I have no desire to visit, but love is about sacrifices.

4. What qualities in a person would make an ideal Valentine’s date for you?
The ability to roll dice. Can’t we play games on this day, before we play games.

5. What gifts would you buy / have bought for your partner?
Last year I got her a year’s supply of massages. I usually get the card, because usually I buy the wrong thing and get the why you spending money like that rant. Cards are safe, so I get this year and see if their is a jewelry show coming soon. What a damn bore I am.

6. What gifts would you buy / have received from your partner?
If I’m lucky I will get a card. I don’t expect much. The kids may make some cards and give me some sweets too.

7. What is your favourite all-time romantic movie?
Gone With the Wind. That reflects what life should have been like with genteel people. But those days are gone with the wind. I seek a place with gentility in the world of today, but my lens is foggy…

8. If you could choose any person on earth to be your date on Valentine’s, who would it be?
This is the missus, only the missus, and nothing but the missus. But I just missus her.

And then I will tag no one. I have no romance so I dun want to make anybody else suffer. Do if you choose.
