I actually don’t think that I’ve ever done anything grand on V-day. Either that, or I just drank too much wine and forgot. ;0 I DO remember one year in college when I was single. A bunch of my friends & roommates were theatre majors and they were performing The Vagina Monologues for Valentine’s Day. I had never seen or heard of it before and it was awesome! Honestly, I don’t think I remember anymore. My dad and my step-dad used to send flowers to my college and my grandma Rugile would mail homemade cookies, but other than that… no real memories. Oh yeah, except for the time in HS when my parents thought it was a good idea to have a meeting with all of my teachers in my counselors office about why I was such a shithead who didn’t give a fuck about school. Everyone attacked me and I ended up crying in my favorite pink shirt (pretty sure that’s the only reason I remember this taking place on V-day) in the women’s staff bathroom whilst one of my teachers came into apologize. Aahhh… good ole HS days. JK. I more or less hated it. Oh yeah, one more memory, V-day cards in elementary school from all of your classmates. TJ Malone (RIP) sent me one saying I was “cool and pretty,” so I almost died into a sea of heavenly hearts. 😉 Okay, I lied, I totally remember oooonnne more, it was my first V-day in Beijing and I met Thomas in Sanlitun for dinner and drinks. I was shocked to arrive and see he had a card and a bottle of gin. I thought he was too immature to do that. LOL. Anyway, got drunk and left the btl in a taxi. Haha. That about sums up my Valentine’s Day memories! Enjoy the menu. Let me know your thoughts and please add to the menu with your fabulous ideas in the comments. -FGG
PS- The song below is the most ridiculously awesome and haunting song about unrequited love ever written. Well, in my humble opinion anyway. 😉 I read somewhere that they called it “ear porn.” LOL. And, Helena Christensen? Way to make it the sexiest song ever, too! Happy hump day, peeps. 😉
