On the subject of Valentines

Valentines can be wonderful things. Getting them, I mean. Recieving Valentines from friends, loved ones, strangers is always exciting and oft hilarious. I am approaching this Valentine's day with somewhat of a feeling of apprehension. Having a significant other, but not knowing if he is even aware of the significance of the 14th of February, it is odd to wonder if anything might or might not happen. Him also being 1000 miles away might play some small part in this apprehension, but one must not believe that is so. Does one get flowers for someone so far removed from their physical location? Does one mail a letter or a card describing the object of their affection? Or does one simply ignore the date altogher and hope that nothing drastic comes of it? For those of you who do not know what to do for either friends or lovers I will provide you with either a source of amusment or a declaration of undying love and affection.

The first a poem entitled "The perfect man"

The perfect man is hard to find
Always gentle, sweet, and kind
He'll look so good and stands so tall
Will carry your bags throughout the mall
He'll fix your car when it needs help
Write you poems that make you melt
Sing sweet songs with his guitar
Wish with you on every star
Drive a pretty car that goes *vroom*
Knows how to use a mop and broom
He'll dress darn good for every event
Always act like a perfect gent
Would always take a punch to defend you
Heck, he would even throw them too
This guy's crazy for you, no doubt
His love for you is very devout
Cooks and cleans for you every day
And no, this guy is not gay
Doesn't have to act like Mr. Tough
This guy knows that he's studly and buff
Cuddle with you at every chance
But doesn't want to get into your pants
Always remembers every single date
Wouldn't be caught dead arriving late
Knows just when your anniversary is
Even passes my eligibility pop quiz
Yes, I approve of this guy for you
Your face (not butt!) is his favorite view
You'll be together for the rest of your life
You'll be his one and only beautiful wife
I looked everywhere to find this guy for you
But until he shows up, Ken will have to do


The second an excerpt from Jane Austin's "Pride and Predjudice"

"In vain I have struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tel lyou how ardently I admire and love you."
