I'm making dbl choc brownies loaded with walnuts for all of my special guys at work. I requested NO flowers tomorrow since I like getting flowers early in the wk so I can enjoy them more. I asked Frank to just surprise me some other time for no reason. I have 2 different gift cards to nice restaurants. We're going out Sat. afternoon & having a nice meal at one of the 2 & then doing the dreaded eow Walmart shopping.

I'm hoping one of my best gal friends will keep a date with me to go to a afternoon movie...and then walk to the little mex restaurant right next door..(its also a bar) have a dakari or two/chips and salsa... and then walk home...(looks like rain though) but sloshy boots and umbrella's sound kinda fun... but will probably call my daughter to pick us up...(crazy that I would call her for help cause ive been drinking)..(life is funny).....but she's a good daughter and we make a habit of rescuing each other....'she is my heart'.... But sloshing in the rain really does sound fun..and its only a mile to home

I'm watching my nieces tomorrow night (overnight) so sis and bil can go out. Darren's working Saturday (mandatory) but after he gets off, we'll drop nieces and our kidlets off with sis for the night. No big plans though, we're staying home and cooking, then catching up on Heroes (we have 10 episodes tivo'd that we haven't watched.)

I'm going out to dinner Friday night, instead of Saturday. Time Warner has a bunch of on demand movies for 1 cent each, starting at midnight Friday night thru midnight Sunday night. If any of them appeal to me.. I'll watch.

I'm far away from my valentine, but a good friend has offered to step into the breech and take me to dinner on Saturday. I've told my real valentine he can make me forgive him if he sends me some peonies. And I have told my fake valentine not to expect me to be dessert.

My "Guy" claims to think that Valentines Day is a made up holiday that requires you to be nice on one specific day instead of letting you make the many little gestures that make a relationship. I let him get away with that. I do, however, require that he celebrate a holiday very important to me. Arizona became a state on Feb 14. Gifts are required for this holiday. It works for both of us.

not much-probably hang out at home with a nice take out meal since I am taking it easy. Can't indulge in any chocolate either, bummer! I got my DH a card and a big Reese's heart and some small treats for my son.

No plans for myself......divorced and no one special in my life now and family all deceased. However, the past few years, I have sent flowers to all the female employees in my office (about 20) and signed the card "Cupid". They caught on after a while, so today I am going to spring for lunch for everybody..........subs, salads, buffalo wings, drinks, the works. We'll all be sleeping this afternoon! LOL

Seamonkey, thanks for the heads up about the Time Warner movies. I am not expecting to go anywere this weekend, so that would be a great way to spend Friday night and Saturday. Wonder if I would be up to an all nighter or if I would just keel over in the middle of a movie.
Do you know if the Time Warner movies are on everywhere Time Warner is or just in your area? The NBA all star weekend is this weekend, and there are several Spurs participating, so I will have to give that a look see.

I'm getting a 15 year old for Valentines day. My little sis is coming to stay a week, we will do a family dinner and maybe some yummo brownies and some chic flicks. We might get her to babysit so DH and I can go do something. We'll see.

I got for hubby a plush, satin heart-shaped box of candy that says Happy Valentine's Night. Since we'll be in a hotel room on Virginia Beach, I also have packed scented candles and KY Your's and Mine. Should be a steamy night. LOL

I got hubby and 2 of my daughters small heart shaped boxes of chocolates and cards. I got a card and a bar of vegan chocolate and some Gushers (type of fruit snack) for my other daughter. Each kid will get some money, probably $10. No plans that I know of. Our anniv. is Sunday, so, we'll go out to dinner then. I feel like a bah humbug for Valentine's day really. It was fun when the kids were little and we'd get them little gifts and do art together. They don't like that stuff anymore. I don't have any special food planned either.

Cracks open pickle jar, invites Zgood and Herm to jump in. In honor of Valentines Day, I promise not to rack my husband, verbally or physically. Even though I would really like to and he has definitely asked for it.

It's probably a good thing I *don't* have a sweetheart at the moment because I am exceedingly cynical today. I just read "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan" and was appalled at the foot-binding rituals that occurred in China and it made me think of all the suffering women have gone through and still go through for men. Bleah. They are not worth it. Sorry, carry on. I'll even post a heart for the rest of you guys to get the spirit back-

No guy in my life at the moment so no Valentine plans. Was going to go hiking with my local hiking club, but there is a chance of rain (though it has gotten smaller as today has gone on) and if that becomes reality I will stay home and stay dry. I am not in the mood to be uncomfortable! But I did manage to get my taxes done today and am getting a refund. So life isn't bad. But I could still use some chocolate.

I bought my kids candy and I also made bags for the daycare kids and kids in my neighborhood. We have a giftcard for Outback so my husband and I might go to an early dinner tomorrow. Other than that, not much planned.
