V-Trains for V-Day!!!

So what is Valentine’s Day really? I work too much so I didn’t have much to do on the day of valentines. I know there’s much insight into how everything about any holiday we have is over commercialized. Well, if you think about it, that’s what America is all about.
One thing that is weird is how things being commercially over used don’t really result in a more emotionally involved holiday. You know, getting in the spirit of things. Maybe thing move by too fast. Maybe we need to take time to do things ourselves instead of outsourcing the crap of our favors for our sweeties. I was thinking about the last time I actually did something for the holiday and how nice it was. I thought of doing something nice this year, but there really isn’t a central figure in my life, so no need to make any reservations for dinner and what not. Also, if it’s a holiday, why not treat it like one? Why not have a citywide Valentine’s Get Together? A huge bash adorned with hearts a word of affection for all. Maybe Valentine’s Day is about love? Could it be that it’s more about Companionship? I’ve come around to the ideal that companionship is the basis of the house that is love. Not to stray in the muck river that is the emotion of love and its Siamese twin hate, I think that’s what it’s about. We are so connected via blog, email, and other technologies that you can’t connect on a personal level. Face to face, to say that you appreciate someone you know? Now onto my more usual self, the one who thinks this is all bullshit. I got a damn Scooby-Doo VALENTINE!!!!! I’m looking at it now. I’m wondering if there’s a way I can destroy the dog without PETA hunting me down and skinning me alive. Oh yea, not to mention because I’m a guy I’m supposed to but all the roses in Southern Ohio huh? How sexist?! How about some chow for V-day? Or how about V-Train V-day?!
