Do you think she'll understand "But I love you every day of the year, why waste money on one tacky commercial day?" :D

Yea right!! You show with nothing that is what you get the rest of the year!!

May be tacky and commercial, maybe a "fake"holiday but screw it up and frosty the snowman is your only friend and he leaves in early June....

Flowers never did anything for me. Get her a gift certificate to a nice spa.

I ended up giving her a $100 gift certificate for a day spa. That should cover a total pampering. In return I received a heart-shaped SpongeBob Squarepants balloon. Thanks for your help, guys. Take care.

At least you got a balloon. I got two cards - one sweet one - and one wanting "something." :rolleyes: Guess I should be pleased as I usually don't even get a card.
