I know I don't post here often but I just had to share with someone that
would appreciate the coolness of this....

I call up this girl and ask her if she wants to go out for Valentines.I
mention going out to dinner and that sort of thing, and she says "Why
don't
we go for a mountain bike ride?" How cool is this????

If I hear that V word one more time today, I'm gonna kick someone's a$$!

Same here! I bought the wife a new car yesterday and told her it was
her Valentines Day gift. She wasn't too happy about it. I thought it
would at least by me a few rides without her complaining. I sticking by
my laurels. That's the gift, take it or leave it. But since she has to
get to work some way, she'll have no choice. Ha!

3-1 she used to be a guy.

YOUR a lucky guy. I got mine a box of Godiva Chcolatier
and a car battery. Since the last time the battery was replaced was
the winter of 01. Better to replace it before it needs replacing and
your car engine won't turn over. If I left it up to her she would say
the battery is new. No its old 01.

So was it the car she wanted or one that was practical?

Ask her what she really wanted.

A car is way better than the vacuum cleaner I came home with on one
Valentine's Day. I joked that is was a gift.........oops......I'm still
hearing about that 20 years later.

The only thing she asked for were heated leather seats. She got them.

It's a Mazda Tribute S. Smaller than our Jeep GC was, but I have a full
size guzzler and we don't need two in the driveway.

So what could have made her happy?
My wife wouldn't have been happy with a car either so I'm just curious since
after 24 years I'm running out of creative ideas.

She didn't say. She'll get some flowers on V-Day. I usually just take
the kids somewhere to get something for her. They get to pick out
something from them and thats usually good enough for her.

Personally I think V day is overrated, another fricken Hallmark Holiday. Why
go out to dinner, the restaurants are nuts? Why only tell her or show her
you love her, or make a special gesture that ONE day? It means more to me
when my hubby shows up with a half dozen chocolate truffles just because he
thought I'd like them, than because of some marketing campaign told him that
feb 14 is the day to do it.
Sure, the gesture is nice on V-day, and it is one of our anniversaries, but
I think people put waaay to much stock in it.

/rant

Now, here's what would tickle my fancy. Bike parts. Anything from Victoria's
Secret. Take me out to dinner NOT on crazy Valentine's Night. Chocolate
Truffles. A month's worth of maid service ( dream on).

What makes me feel loved is overhearing conversations where he tells his
pals I'm a mountain biking queen. When we have a morning hug, every morning.
If he brings me a cup of coffee, or tells me that he'll get the dishes. If I
say I'm going for a ride and he says, have fun. etc.

You guys know this one would set me off, here ya go.

LOL, 24 years of a lot of hard work. Stuff like "you didn't buy my stuff
for VD" used to really set me off, but I've learned to step back and look
the bigger picture. Sure it's a bonus, but not an expectation.
