St Valentines Day on McGee St…

Jump to Comments

I must say I was pretty impressed with how many folks showed up last night in the unexpected snow storm to play trivia. One of our trivia regulars who I’ll refer to as “Jason” (because that really is his name — I’m a total meany here, I’ll admit it) said on his Facebook page that he hasn’t had a date on Valentine’s Day in THIRTEEN YEARS! I say, a) what a thing to advertise about yourself, and b) way to stay committed to a notion, “Jason”. Cheers to you, my friend, I’ve been married 10 years and even though I made fun of you last night, today is the first one we’ve celebrated the entire time. I’m a big advocate of showing your love every day, and to hell with the Hallmark holidays.

That being said, my love brought our babies in for lunch today for Valentine’s Day. When I came downstairs to meet them, I was greeted by four handsomely dressed men donning tuxedos with red bow ties and cummerbuns and a rose and I got a love serenade. I was so touched and shocked that I couldn’t even tell you what they sang to me.

So to my Valentine, G, way to go, babe. You got me! I love you every day… And to my kids who brought me beautiful cards and a really cool Tar Heel fan, thank you for always making me feel so special and loved. You are the most delightful people I know. xoxo
