my favorite cutting board died tonight in a horrible accident. luckily the horrible accident didn't involve slicing my fingers up which i avoided very narrowly. thanks be to my amazing insticts which last second upon coming into contact with a knife blade realized that trying to catch the 2 knifes & cutting board was a bad idea ( Read more... )

Women get too worked up and then are disappointed no matter what happens. That's my opinion. Some men are pushing for March 14 to be 'Steak and Blowjob' Day, but it's a little too crass for public consumption.

I like this holiday, but in order to do so, you have to drown out the majority's voice.

good thing i'm not a fan of expectations then. my naivety was beaten out of me early on.

hilarious, 'steak & blow job' day! i'd be all for it except i hate being expected to do anything & i sure as fuck am not cooking steaks for anyone!

*sigh* i'll work on being less cynical but only for you!

ps did you get my card? :o)

I celebrated today with a 2 hour nap. Mostly becuase I crashed in a sugar coma from all the chocolate and cookies provided to our break room this morning. I need self control to say "hmm. That much sugar makes me feel like poo. I shouldn't eat that cookie."

And while I'm at it, I want a pony too.

In other news, if you ever come down here (and, you know, it's not summer or something) I have to take you to get a Chodka at SpiderHouse; think really fantastic cinnamon-y mexican chocolate with tons of vodka and spices. I think you'd like it.

i do intend to get down there sometime. i'm not sure when but sometime. preferably while you're still there!

wait. how long do i have again?

*shame*

You've got another full year. Don't sweat it, sweetie. Besides, I might go somewhere more fun/ closer to you on my internship. Hell, this summer I might be in DC, which is a hell of a lot closer than Texas. There'll be visiting, I'm sure.

i'd just like to state for the record that another year is not that long! ipe. i'll see what i can do (i'd very much like to visit you in texas). either way though, i'll take a visit whenever i can, wherever it is!

First off, Mar 14th as National Steak and Blowjob Day would be amazing, but probably even MORE depressing for single guys then Feb 14th was.

And yes, I'm very proud of you starting your canidate search already :D. Kind of an odd use of V-Day, but whatever. Mine was spent the 2nd consecutive day of school being snowed out, me not leaving my room, and playing video games and watching Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind 3 times. I think your day wins :)

::love:: Ima try to call you sometime today probably, have fun :D

i do believe you're right about that being infinitely more depressing. also, as max pointed out it would lose a bit of it's charm in the day after when there'd be no point being like, "hey, what'd your girl do for you for steak & blowjob day?" still quite funny i think though.

*squee* i did actually mean steve not stephen (i try to be good & distinguish the to) but i guess i should have meant both! truthfully, i started the day before v-day though. my actual v-day was spent shoveling snow, doing taxes, & consuming chocolate & booze. so not much better. anyway, how does one watch a movie 3 times in 1 day?!

Everywhere on Valentines day, there is the unspoken 'If you don't do something/buy something for your womuns, they will think you don't love them.' This is because, uniformly in cultural depictions, women freak out when nothing is done for Valentines day.
It makes me sort of retchy, really. Killing people would be a more historically accurate celebratory jesture.

all i could do was laugh when i read your comment. it was one of those good hearty type. i'd much rather my man killed someone for me on v-day than bought me a box of chocolates!

miss you!

Um. Well, I didn't feel obligated to make something for dinner. In fact, I was merely looking for a recipe we could make together.

Failing that though, I did go out to dinner and took the whole bill.

& you bought flowers & booze... it's more the fact that you put so much effort into it. i doubt she felt she owed you such an effort.

(not critizing either you or her. i thought your efforts were actually kind of cute. it's just that i noticed that this is more of a males do for their females kind of holiday which is something i don't really understand.)
