It's a day late, but oh well...

People of LJ! Are you sick and tired of Valentines*? Do you retch at the colour pink? Are you going to go on a homicidal rampage if you hear one more person say 'I wuv oo'?

Fear not, for help is at hand. I present: Tequilamas!

Happy drinking!

*If Valentine's Day was celebrated properly, with re-enactments of beheadings, Romans, and religious persecution, then I might like it. I wrote to Hallmark, but they didn't seem to like my ideas for cards - neither the 'you've made me lose my head' one or the 'since I met you, my heart will go Roman no more' one. Philistines.

I have no problems with a 'hey, I (still) like you and all' day, but I don't like the way it's become commercial. I think we'd have more fun if there wasn't really a set day, and people could give each other surprise valentines. That would be sweet.

It would be sweet, but I know I'd forget. I'm terrible at remembering things like that (I forgot the set day and only remembered when I went into the city and saw hearts everywhere). Besides, I try and do sweet things during the year when I remember that I have to actually show affection for The Boy *g*

But yes, the commercialism makes it crap. Just a money-making venture. Now that's romantic.
