Me, too! But I have a sneaking suspicion that as soon as I take that first bite....I'll be wearing the filling since my favorite is the Boston Creme!!

The donut is for me, but you can have the coffee. Deal? ;)
Re: Valentine's Day Bea: I never got chocolates. Roses were for free because STBX worked importing them. The only teddy bear I ever got came from a flower arrangement someone sent to his office. Did I buy him stuff? Yes, I did. Oh well... How can I miss something I never had, right?
Valentine's Day wendieann: Not that my Valentine's Day was special during our marrriage. He forgot constantly... ::)
However, my memories are there. (most recent ones)
1 year ~ we had our engagement party
2 year ~ celebrated our son with us
3 year ~ celebrated my pregnancy
4 year ~ alone....sigh... :'(
Yes, I have the children, but it sure bothers me to walk in the mall and see the Valentine's stuff..Especially when I use to spoil my STBHX!!! ::)
I did end up buying some guy friends a cheesy gift for being my friend... :)
sigh...this will be a tough year. :( Perhaps I will go and buy myself some flowers!!! and the kind of chocolates I like!! ;)
What are you guys plans???
Re: Valentine's Day Bea: No plans here, but considering I'll be in midterms period, I assume I won't have much time to even think about it. Besides, St. Valentine's is a new concept for me since it isn't celebrated in my country (Colombia) and this is how it went for me while I was married and living here in Canada:
2000 - Nothing
2001 - Nothing
2002 - Nothing
2003 - Went out to have coffee at a friend's house
2004 - Finally, a romantic dinner
2005 - Alone
That coffee with my friend was one of the "reasons" my STBX listed for leaving me. See the pattern? Anyhoo, not looking back. The sad thing is that I've become bitter about it, so everytime I see little hearts somewhere I go "GAGS!". People find it funny, I find it pathetic. Oh well, I hope one day I'll be able to celebrate again.
It should be like in Colombia, we have a "Love AND Friendship Day" so nobody feels left out.
Re: Valentine's Day dgiirl: I'M LOVING MYSELF THAT DAY w00tar lol :) My ex dropped the dbomb on vday 10pm last year (he walked into the house at 9pm), and the 15th was the day he officially moved out, hence my official divorce day. This day can NEVER be worse than that day, so I'm treating myself to valentines day. I'll never depend on a man to make it special for me ever again. he never did in the marriage anyways, so it's not hard to make it better than that lol
I went to the dollar store and spent 2$ lol
I named my teddy bear Timothy :)
And for vday, i'm probably going to buy myself a cake or something and pig out!! :)
