All right, that's it. I say we cancel February. God knows, it's short, cold, useless, and a brutal kick to much underused sex organs right around the 14th.

Oh, and today I figured out just how absolutely perfect a nickname Captain Asshat is. The man said something so mind-numbingly stupid I could only stare, and somewhere in the back of my head, John Bender said, "I want to be just like you. I figure all I need is a lobotomy and some tights."

See?! Genius, I tell you!

Also, I don't plan on watching, but wouldn't it be great if Bush was just brutally honest in his State of the Union address? Just got up there, took a nice deep breath, said, "Well, we're all fucked," then walked quietly off camera.

True, true... although, if either of us were able to make a road-trip, we could take care of that last bit...

Come on, don't leave us hanging...

What did he say?

And why is someone as intelligent, witty, and attractive as you still single?

Bugger. Sorry about the multiple posts. They should all have been deleted. Anyway, Valentine's Day is social Darwinism. Those who have partners drizzle chocolate on each other. Those without partners gorge on chocolate until they suspect no one will love them anymore. It is a vicious conspiracy between the bakers and personal trainer!

I was a bit curious about that myself... and it really punctures a hole in my constant "all the good ones are taken" argument...

Okay, let's just have one day in February. That way, the February babies can have their birthdays, I can have my Oscars, and then the next day can be March and we can have spring. :)

The year would make more sense with 13 months of 28 days each.

Why? What happens on the 14th?

On the standard twelve-month calendar, that's Valentine's Day.

My elder brother's birthday is in February.

And my sister's birthday is the 24th. So she can move it to the 1st, or to March.

Eh, better make it March, because I haven't ordered a gift for her yet. (I'm thinking something skull-related, she collecting them.)

And a couple years back, I was delighted to see [livejournal.com profile] flemco selling in his CafePress store candy-filled mugs and teddy bears with the anti-Valentine's slogan "I hope you catch AIDS and die." Presumably a gift for your ex...
