I love YOU... No, I love YOU... No, I love you MORE... No, I love YOU more... *smooch smooch smooch*

Okay, so I'm not that disgustingly sappy this year.

But I'm really getting into the whole Valentine's Day stuff.  Nothing too major, although Hubby did buy me Gucci Guilty, which I'd been drooling over since I smelled it in Spain.  The boys got a few chocolates and heart-shaped Pez dispensers.  They got me a box of chocolates (the good kind, not the ones with the icky, plasticky fruit fillings) and made a card, with the help of Hubby.  Tonight, I'm making fettuccine alfredo with scallops (totally not vegan, but whatever, it's a holiday) and a salad & bruschetta.  Plus, you know, alcohol, of course.  *wink wink*

It's going to be a home-based V-Day.  No restaurants, sitters, movies, bars, whatever.  Just us at home.  Sounds boring, but I'm pretty glad that's the way it is!  After several years of sea duty, I could care less what we do together, just as long as we're together.

I have some friends who hate this holiday.  There's even an Anti-V-Day party going on.  And I do agree, it's purely Hallmark marketing and has nothing to do with anyone's love specifically.  That's partly why we're being low-key.  But it's a good excuse to get mushy and lovey-dovey, and that's never a bad thing to me & Hubby.

Just as long as we don't rub noses and stare longingly into each other's eyes.  *gag*
