I KNOW RIGHT?!

The fact that I got home later than usual and found THREE other hunters at the Olm spawn point. >.> I think I'll just let them have it for now...

I like Valentine's Day cause it's a free excuse to get candy. I could care less about the whole dating/romantic aspect. To me, VD is like Halloween...but red! And in Feburary!

*snort* I don't even pay attention to Valentine's day. Useless holiday in my opinion. My boyfriend and I have never acknowledged it whatsoever.

If it wasn't so pink I might have enjoyed it. I mean, candy and free paper!? Yay! :D As it is? Another monument to useless comercialism and the color pink.

Valentine's Day? That's in February, right? But that's months away!

Just saw a hunter with Gondria, she's named Gonorrhea. No joke.
I just wanna stab myself in the eye.

See, I would at least have gone for Chlamydia. Ooh, or Pthirus! That's a good one.

So was I. I was due on Feb. 14th(which is also my parents anniversary) but I had to be born early or my mother and I would've died.

I suppose that's one way to remember your anniversary. I got married (the second time) on April 1.

Ack! That can be a terrifying situation, no matter the cause.

Oh, my mother was almost born that day; her birthday is April 2nd. Makes for the cheapest April Fool's joke ever, although I don't recall ever using it...
As for Valentine's Day, I would certainly appreciate it more if it were an official holiday (that is, no work/school). Do note, that is only my attitude towards holidays which I otherwise don't care about!

I'm gonna be the odd one out here and say that I love the romantic aspect of Valentine's Day.
I don't expect lavish gifts or anything, I just enjoy the quiet alone time with my new hubby since we're usually busy or hanging out with friends. It's a nice excuse to have a "date," and I fully abuse my position as a chick to enjoy it. >.>
We'll probably just end up crashing on the couch eating fruit roll-ups and watching the LotR trilogy. :3 All while cuddling, of course.

Nothing better to get in a cuddling-mood than eating fruit and watching Aragorn and Gimli kick orc ass. xD

Heh, my mother's birthday actually is the 1st of April. She says that it makes her immune to April Fools tricks, but in reality she just gets so annoyed and pissed off at them, that we never bothered with them in our household.

Mmmm .... fruit roll ups ....
I am so annoyed right now with all things PHP. And MySQL for that matter, but mostly PHP. I had one simple clear goal today, and 12 hours later I've had one meal, 6 Pepsi's, and brought the forums down. And that's it.

My gears..have been grinded. Well, more like facepalmed.
Omw to tame the lovely new ravager, so I got a portal. Here's how the convo went:
Mage: wts portals
Me: Exodar?
Mage:how much
Me: 30?
Mage: gold?
No, chickens -_-
