Valentines Day

The only day i really want to be bothered by anything, actually.
My Biggest mistakes with valentines day are my friends.
They have a good slogan:
"On Valentines Day everyone deserves some loving,.."
That the ok part, the bad part is:
"...,whether they like it or not."

Every year they send cards to single girls that i probably/should know and write a love sentence in a strange un-earthlike language and leave my phone number on it.

A few years ago they challenged me to send a card to a colleague at work.
and to this day im still not hearing the end of it.
To bad the most jokes come from my boss, or else i could beat him up with out worriyng to much.

Last years they send a card to a close friend of mine.
I like her a lot, both not enough to say i love her.
That was kinda embarresing.
But a Friend of hers, made a funny remark when we were listing to a song on my MP3-player, and said we looked like such a lovely couple.
And sometimes she brougth it up agin.

This year was different, they gave me an ultimatum:
Either i send card/cards or they will.
So i gave them an ultimatum:
Either i send it or ill kick your arses before youll get the chance to send them.
Eventually i did both; I needed to blow off some stress and friends that you can beat up are very handy then.


My real disliking of Valentines Day goes back 6 years, when i was still 17 years old.
Many people dont believe, but thats up to them.
It was actually a few days before the 14th.
I wasnt actually doing nothing, and this girl was in big trouble.
So, i helped her out. Her name is Shireille ( pronounced in a french way, with the le silently spoken).
Shes one of those people who believes in destiny, like the rest of her family.
And she believed that the one who save her on that faited day would be her future husband.
Now i dont mind believing in destiny and stuff, but marraige..
And certainly since they already arrainged everything so we could get wed on 14th of feb.
Thats not whats on a 17 year old guy mind.

Trouble was getting away, everywhere i went they were keeping an eye on me so getting out of this marraige would be almost impossible.
until i remember the last sentence in a marraige vow "to death do us part.", it gave one hell of an idea.
As you guessed, i faked my own death.
I build a pretty nice clone, that i blew up at the alter so they believed i died.
They actually build me a grave and every 14th of feb they place flowers on it.
i got purple dandeylions this year, last year was a very nice bouquet of white lillies.

but since then im not looking forward for a relationship, i really wanna take it slowly.. certainly since that one was in 1 week!

The only good part is the chocolat.
We inherited it from the japanese.
Its a pretty good deal we think, that way girls can go look for a valetine and dont look desparate.
The difficult part is white day.
Trying to find something thats nice and white..
