    What's everyone getting for Valentine's Day?

    Either you know, suspect, have hinted, always get, are buying yourself, etc?
     
    I asked for and am getting tickets to see my Redwings play Dallas on Valentine's Day...
    How nice of them to come all the way here for little ole' me! [;)]

    Aw!  How romantic Gina ;)  DH and I don't really do anything special for VDay.  We used to go out to a fancy restaurant but stopped a few years ago.  I think (for me anyways) it's the WORST night of the year to eat in a restaurant.  The service and food are always lacking because they're so tightly booked.  I'll probably get a nice box of chocolates and maybe an "unmentionable" or two.  lol

    Probably nothing just like last year...[:(]

    Detroit huh?  Well I guess I can't say much since I was forced to become a Ducks fan this year on account of my Pronger boy.  Still a Habs fan through and through.

    I'm hoping for a house.[:D] I usually let DH off the hook for V day, because he covers me good for Xmas, and my birthday is creeping up. As long as I get a nice card, thats all I care about. I like putting out a little something for the kids in the morning. Ashley is so excited to celebrate V day at school. This will be her first time to hand out valentines and treats. I get more excited seeing the kids excited.

    Hopefully new wheels for my 300 ZX....

    Probably flowers, my favorite, glads. Maybe a little chocolate, although it would not be in my best interests. These days I get a bigger kick out of valentine stuff for the kids.

    I'm getting some extra cash!!! Not as a gift, I'm moonlighting at another hospital that night hee hee.

    Gina - I didn't know you were a Wings fan!!!  I knew I liked you for a reason [:D]
     
    DH and I will probably just swap cards.  I will make a nice dinner (beef stroganoff DH's fav) and he will make me a Chocolate Cake!  Yummy!

    DH's birthday is on Valentine's Day, so we don't celebrate V-Day....since we were dating, it has always been "Brian's Day" [:D]
     
    I always feel bad for people who have to share their birthdays with holidays, so I think it'sonly fair that he gets his own special day. We usually celebrate Valentine's Day the following weekend or something...nothing big - cards, candy, dinner out.

    We are really super broke, still, unrelentingly so since Xmas. But my fiance's brother kindly gave us a $50 gift certificate to a restaurant as a kind of engagement present... so we will probably use that and have a nice night of it! [:)]

    Hey if you do that you should be able to get the half price Vday stuff at Wally.  That's it, I'm officially moving Valentines day to the weekend following the 14th![:D]

    My boyfriend usually wishes me a "Happy Hallmark Day" and leaves it at that. [:)] He's a cynical sonoffabitch.

    He did buy me a catbus moneybox one year, though. He bought himself the Totorro model, which was bigger and cooler. [;)]

    We'll probably celebrate the weekend before because he'll be away on business the 13-15.  What I want is an engagement ring but I am not holding my breath.
     
    I got him liquor filled chocolates and a weekend at a b&b in Yorktown, VA since he likes historical stuff.  I am gonna make him some "sweet sushi" too (imagine rice krispy treats that look like sushi using chocolate, etc.)

    Last year, Ryan got me 158 roses, one for each week we had been together.  He is always really creative with gifts, so holidays are always interesting.  This year, I got him a 67 Mustang. (It needs a little work, but it's easily restorable).  I am sure that he will love it.

    Well I know DH is getting me a ferret! [:D] I'm getting him early (this Saturday) and I know our current ferret is going to be glad for the company. I'm pretty darn excited.
     
    We'll probably go out to eat somwhere nice but reasonably cheap. And maybe see a movie. I have no idea what I'm actually getting him yet. I'm horrible at choosing gifts. [8D]
