Well I wasn’t expecting much, but I got a nice $20 gift certificate to my favorite cigar shop/lounge. I just got back with an Ashton ESG Robusto.

A student loan payment.

I just want to see this whole Hallmark Holiday go away all together. I don’t want a thing. And I don’t want to have to go buy a thing. I make a point to show my wife that I appreciate her throughout the year so I don’t feel a need to buy into this made up greeting card holiday. My wife seems to be finally coming around to my way of thinking. She has become a lot more fiscally aware over the past year or so and has begun to see through the Valentine’s day farce. This year the only thing either of us wants is to not have to cook dinner tonight. With 2 kids going out to eat is a hassle on any night let alone a busy one like tonight will be. Resolution: a coupon for a free Heart Shaped Pizza from Papa johns. We don’t have to cook, and the kids are young enough that a heart shaped pizza is still a big deal. So everyone’s happy and i don’t have to spend any money for no good reason. I’m not cheap. My wife and I just don’t wait for Valentine’s day to do nice stuff for eachother.

“A student loan payment” ?
not the whole loan paid off? ;)

come on guys, think big.

world peace!!

Ok, I am a cynic by nature and a romantic at heart.

Gather the world leaders, hand out a san cristobal and a little scotch, we’d have world peace by night fall.

well, maybe a truce.

Ha. Considering my monthly student loan payment is, well, excessive enough, I’m willing to start out with one month. Then the unsubsidized loan in its entirety. Then the subsidized loans.

Yeah, it’s a pain.

Thankfully I’m getting off easy, my wife isn’t a big fan of Valentine’s day.

All I want is to relax, have a cigar and a drink maybe watch a movie too.

Picked up a new pistol today so I’m happy (got for myself) :) My wife got a gift certificate for a 3D/4D ultrasound session and a massage for expecting mothers.

All I want is SILENCE, so I can smoke my cigars in peace. Needless to say, I didn’t get it.

Come on Dan, the silence ended with your first kid! That is why I love hotel rooms.

I have three kids and a Jack Russell Terror, I know not what this silence thing is you speak of.

Four kids (8,6,4,2), a boxer, a shepard mix, a wife, a bottle of Makers, and full stuffed humidor. This is my life in a nut shell. Father’s Day is coming up, maybe I will get some silence then.

@monkeydan

On Father’s Day I get jumped on at 7 AM with kids screaming Happy Father’s Day. I swear the wife orchestrates this.
