Roses are still cool. Anonymity, on the other hand, sucks.

Anonymity, on the other hand, sucks. This is going to drive me crazy...

*lol*

I can empathise.

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

Oh you can, can you?

[morgaine-x.livejournal.com]

I thought that was the bestest bit!

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, I can.

*smiles sweetly*

Only when you are the anonymous one...

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

Otherwise it is damned infuriating once the initial euphoria wears off...

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

Aw, poor you...

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

Not so much infuriating as challenging...

[morgaine-x.livejournal.com]

Ah well, it appears to be a problem only you and lunar_affinity of my FL have!

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

So you have lots of sensible friends then?

[morgaine-x.livejournal.com]

I've always thought so! ;)

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

you poor thing! I try to stay away from their type...

[morgaine-x.livejournal.com]

As an example, the only time my ex-husband bought me roses, they were yellow. I HATE yellow, which he well knew, as I objected every time he wore yellow.

Give me sensible any day...

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

Yellow roses smack of timidity and I'll have none of that!

Romance? I call it stalking

[ninebelow.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry to take the gilt off your romantic billet-doux, but if they haven't put their name on it, it's probably because they think you'd rather not know. Or because they are married. Or you are. A genuinely anonymous Valentine is only worth keeping if you're compiling evidence for a restraining order.

Ah, what I'd give to be stalked...

"My cynicism about the whole business probably comes from a sense of inadequacy."

What she said...

[morgaine-x.livejournal.com]

I did divorce him - so I didn't really have any of it any more!

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

I'll disagree. I find it ratehr annoying. And I am quite annoyed now.

Re: Romance? I call it stalking

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

How true. Especially if the gift is sleazy.

[rhythmaning.livejournal.com]

Me, I got one from my cats!

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

Good for you - they've always struck me as the wimp out of the flower world. With me it's got to be red roses or lilies.

Re: Romance? I call it stalking

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

Ah, now sleazy is a whole different thing - and if you're sleazy in one thing it will permeate everything you do.

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

More details!

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

I got a hand-made card from Koko. :)

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

OK, now that is sweet. My son NEVER sends me Valentines...

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

*g*

There are many good points to having daughters...

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

Two dozen red roses from one mysterious admirer.

One dozen red roses, a sleazy [read pornographic] card and a soft porn movie from someone else.

But I also got that card from Koko and a long phonecall from J. :)

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

Yeuch!

But three out of four ain't bad...

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

True. I just wish I could find out who that idiot was - I'd love to have a word, or two, with him.

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

One of them involving sex, and the other travel, I take it?

(Well, you're probably politer than me...)

[rparvaaz.livejournal.com]

Hee! I hadn't thought about the exact words yet. But I'm sure I can think of something suitably devastating.

[rhythmaning.livejournal.com]

All today? And who in their right mind would send someone porn movie on Valentine's Day? Yuck!

[rhythmaning.livejournal.com]

I personally go for white roses - much more romantic.

[morgaine-x.livejournal.com]

Indeed - but is there anything less romantic that the colour you know your partner hates?

(Especially when she has no objection to practically any other colour....)

[f4f3.livejournal.com]

Lillies are also much better for lashing yourself into a lather. Unless the roses have thorns.

I'm sorry, I think I'll go home and have a cool bath....
