some fun and not so fun Valentines activities

Valentines Day, or National Singles Awareness Day, as we singletons may think of it, is all about being in love, or fretting about what your significant other is getting you--and did you get a better present? It's a day about pressure--setting up the "perfect date"--or a day that boils down to disappointment--and maybe some makeup sex when he/she realizes they messed up.

So, I offer some alternatives to the typical, mushy, lame romance of the day. I offer options (and how often do we get to choose our own adventure anyway?

For those of you ladies who want to feel empowered. 

For the unrequited lover.


For those who just can't say "VALENtines" Day without adding an "m" (these are the same folks who probably say "liberry," instead of "library.")

For the smooth cat.

For those of you who have to tell your significant other how great they are.


For those of you who actually want to feel sad...I have just the trick.

For those of you who don't need a date, your friends will always be there for you.


And for those of you who just want to back-up away from love in any form.

And for those of you who still feel the need to send a Valentines card, at least be clear about how you feel...?

For the comic fan.

The lover of haver of beards

The bitter

The geek

The feminist.
