bop_radarI am a very lucky girl and had a lovely Valentines Day. My boy cooked me a meal (rarity!), and surprisingly it was actually healthy: salmon and fresh steamed vegies. As the commitment-phobic, jewelry-buying 'male' of the relationship, I was put in charge of the dessert. So at 6:10pm, I was haunting the aisles of my local continental supermarket with a bunch of suited blokes. I settled on a large tub of deluxe chocolate icecream, lindt chocolate balls and raspberries. My selection was wistfully admired in the checkout queue by all the gourmet-diet-yoghurt-buying boyfriends. I felt like screaming 'Get the damn double-cream chocolate! You really think your girlfriend doesn't want that? Don't buy into her 'I'm on a diet, love!' routine!'
Anyway, it was lovely. And miracle of miracles, pay day fell on Valentines Day so I was able to pay off my airfare to the UK (phew!) and buy the new Belle & Sebastian CD (bliss!).
I've been quite overwhelmed by the explosion of love on LJ for Valentines Day. You guys are the best!! Someone knows me very, very, very well and sent me roses from Clark, Lex and Lois. *hugs that person* How cute!
And I got such lovely generous messages in![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
svmadelyn's Valentines Day Game. It totally made my day! Thank you to each and every one of you who wrote. I reckon I can pick a couple of you, but not all, so thanks whoever you are! ;) (And I kick my timezones too.)
I'm having a lovely time reading everyone else's messages too, so everyone should go check them out! It's great to see people you love are appreciated by others too, and it's also good to check out people I *don't* know and hear why people like them.
Part A, A-Q.
Part B, R-Z.
It was incredibly hard to pick only ten people to message, so I personally chose people who might not already know how much I appreciated them. So I also want to say a big thank you to my entire f'list for your general (and individual/specific) greatness. *g*
Best wishes to all. K
ETA: Meagre Valentines offerings from me to you all were made here, in case you missed them.
