While we didn't do anything today, aside from pick out appliances for our new house, yesterday I sent a couple of Shakespearean actors to my husband's office, where they gave him a dozen roses and read him a rather, um, bawdy sonnet. And yes, he wanted to kill me- the best part is I convinced a friend to record the whole thing for me.

Anyone else do anything unusual/fun? Though I bet some of you are still out celebrating...

I got vip club box tickets to the flyers rangers game today, took my wife, who is a HUGE fan...she even knows the diffrence between roughing, charging and boarding!

The best part for her? I arranged for a baby sitter!

Klegg is the prince of passion!

I am a pretty romantic guy on an everyday basis, and dont need 1 day singled out for me to remember to treat my woman nice. That being said, I spent the morning at a caterer doing a tasting (for the wedding), then watching Under a Tuscan sun with her (she loves that movie) and afterwards, bought her a new clothes drier.

Yes, riveting excitement, I know :D Now she's pased out on the couch. Time for some UT2004 baybee! Pity I need to work tomorrow though or I would be up all night.

I spent the day with my wife after letting her sleep in till noon whilst I kept the kids at a safe distance from her and then we sat around and did nothing....then I spent the evening washing and driving my mistress...heheee.

I thought about you all day, Elara......

jk, made my wife shrimp and lobster scampi with champagne.

I did think about you a bit though....

I spent quality time with my significant other.. IE. I drove around in my car by myself ;)

Valentines day sucks for single people, especially single guys who spend most of thier time with women who have boyfriends and husbands.

I worked :(

I rubbed one out!!!!

hahaha, well this morning at about 2.00 am i dropped off a kooky lil' valentine for a girl i've known as an aquaintance for a good year and a half and FINALLY had the unbelievable pleasure of going on a date with her on wednesday... a tad smitten?? you betcha... :cool:

Along these lines... I have a question..

If you've known a girl for a while, and spend ALOT of time with her as friends.. stay at her house 4 times a week, go out of town together, etc.. well.. how do you start dating her and what would make the difference (besides sex).

I got one of my buddies and packed a limo with Bi-sexual strippers and Vodka.

I'll attach pics tomorrow....

I thought all strippers were bisexual?

well, this is a hard thing to do... especially when the feelings aren't obviously mutual. when you settle into a friend role, there aren't many ways to go about doing this.

the differences are numerous: the affection is something entirely different, as are the emotions involved. sex is never just sex when you're in love (you'd know if you've ever been in love), a kiss is never just a kiss, a smile is never just a smile... everything would start to matter. it's the same way whenever the level of affection and commitment step up in a relationship (experience the change in a relationship between friends of yours who're going out, and then move in together, or even further, get married...).

if you're really sure that you think you're in love with her (don't even think about going from friends to boink buddies unless this is a normal thing for her... definitely not worth it), then all i can suggest is being very cautious, NOT GETTING YOUR HOPES UP (although, far easier said than done... if i could follow my own advice, i'd have never been heartbroken once), and testing the waters, taking all positive signs as green lights, and any sort of negative signal as a red light. you really just have to talk it out, but, do so at the most apt time possible (y'know, try to help her really experience how you feel while you're out with her, that kind of thing).

What Did I do on VD day? Took my girlfriend, went to the local Mazda dealer, and picked up my new RX8- of course......

Well it was overfilled with oil- and being saturday no one was in service to drain it- but I think this is a much better car than the first one I got 6 months ago..... see my thread on that soon...


Then we went to dinner and saw a live R&B jazz band in Greewich Village.

did nothing for single awarness day

I am with you, UT2004 is everything 2003 was not...reminds me of tribes, a gone, forgotten game...and yes, I use "klegg" for online games....

I got depressed for St. Valentine's day. Went to a gentlemen's club with some friends, got half drunk, but still feel sad. Why can't I forget my ex?

I have always been lucky, I usually had a mutual HATE fest with my ex female friends...but not always..ask yourself this: Do you miss HER, or the IDEA of her...

I know when I met my wife, everything sort of came together...I knew she was the one...and you will meet that person to..

ANd now, In an attempt to win the hearts of all female members, (in particular, a certian mod who puts up with a ton of crap) The greeks version of where love came from!

So pull up a chair kiddies, and note that I am using both the greek and the roman names for the gods..Do not feel like looking up the spelling for "VULCANS" greek name..

It seems that man originally was made by Zeus with two heads, four arms, and four legs...some had two male heads, some two female, many had one of each, and some had a strange triangle shape to thier heads...Now man was cheeky, and decided to make war on the gods...soon they started to roll up mount olympus...Zeus was very angry, and sent lighting bolts down on these proto men, cutting them all in HALF! His wife, Hera, felt bad for her pets, and begged her husband to let them live..in the meantime, she had her son, vulcan, pull the cut flesh forward, and tie it off..

Zeus relented, and said man could live, But they needed distractions...So he picked them all up, the little half men, and threw them all over the place..

Man now had their new purpose: to spend their lifes looking for that missing part, that other half that would make them whole..

And now to destroy the romantic mood..
The humans with two male heads end up as hairdressers, the ones with tow female heads end up on the howard stern show, and the rest of us end up hanging out in seedy bars looking for love, not the wholesome kind, but the dirty, sticky, hour in the shower, get an injection and hope you do not have crablice kind..

This also tells us were our belly buttons come from...

Oh yes, what about the triangle headed ones? they end up with the 7 or the 8, of course...:)

Yup, Klegg is the "lovvvveeee doctorrr". I think I may go in and see if Mrs klegg needs an operation..

klegg, your my kinda freak. I'd like to go on a killing spree with ya anytime :D

Soon as the final game is out we'll have to hook up on some servers.

Thanks for the advice!! Just a hypothetical question ;)

Tribes 1 with the shifter mod stole 1.5 years of my life.... Greatest game ever. I've never been addicted to a video game, but this one had me and my friend hooked.

My wife and I went to see the Spokane Chiefs kick the crap out of the Portland Hawks. Woo Hoo. She loves hockey too. We went out on Friday night for sushi which we both love. Especially Unagi and Hamachi.

Served my Wife breakfast in bed. Then got paged and spent the rest of the friggin' day until 23:00 sitting on a conference call and "working on" a problem that was beyond my control, :mad:

Our house goes on the market Monday, so we spent Valentine's day cleaning the carpets, boxing up clutter and doing some last-minute fix-ups. Fun, huh?

Hey, at least it was time spent together :D

I bought my wife some Champagne Truffles from Switzerland...absolutely suprised the crap out of her...she loves those things...and of course the flower thing and all that jazz..we spent the day with each other and our daughter...i left the mistress couped up in the garage...we got it on..on the way to work this morning though..hehehe
