V-Day hype is really bugging me this year. Maybe it's because I'm laid-up and watch too much TV, or maybe it's the economy. But we're celebrating today with Indian champagne buffet, woo-hoo!
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm not making a big deal of Valentine's day, but I AM making brioche dough so I can bring a homemade King Cake into work on Tuesday.
The dough has to rise in the fridge overnight, with the actual baking taking place tomorrow.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
The biathlon is oddly fascinating. Productivity today has been thwarted by cuddly cats so far, but I really need to clean the snow off my car, vacuum, get groceries, and do laundry today.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I divorced the man. Yet he is hanging out in my living room after dropping off the boy. He is glued to the Olympics. I knew I should have changed the channel to a girlie movie as soon as they walked in the door.
GET OUT. GET OUT. GET OUT.

How romantic. Valentine's Day with your very recently ex-husband.

No time like the present.

He is gone now. Gah, don't make yourself comfy. Drop the boy and see ya later.
Thankfully he didn't mention Valentines, though he did mention his girlfriend a couple of time. NO. Just go.
With CJ here, I'm trying to be NICE but we are going to have to have a TALK.

Thrive to spite them
Suzie, my dad used to do that ALL the time. He'd come in and make himself at home and sometimes not even ask if he could come in. This was when we still lived at the house my parents lived in before the divorce. I don't think Mom ever said anything to him but she'd complain about it.
Dad started trying to tell us how to do stuff and I think I got frustrated with the whole situation and told him he didn't live there anymore and he couldn't act like it was his house any more.

We never shared this apartment, but that doesn't stop him. And yeah, he will bug CJ about cleaning his room here. Part of me wants to tell CJ to leave it a mess.
Taxes are done. Woot. And I'm getting money back. Extra woot. I have visions of F2F dancing in my head.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
In the Black Eyed Peas "I Gotta Feeling" video it's an unfortunate choice to follow up a shot of Fergie with one of water running down a woman's legs in the shower. Or perhaps that was intentional on the part of the director...
