The argument against Valentine's Day is that why do you just dedicate this one day to loving that significant other? Shouldn't you just love them all the time, everyday? Well, yes, yes you should.
The argument for Valentine's Day is that we are celebrating a priest named Valentine who secretly married couples when marriage was forbidden. But most people don't know that. They just think of Valentine's Day as the one day out of the year when it's perfectly acceptable to be mushy gushy love-y dove-y and have no one judge them.
Personally, I'm not a Valentine's Day fan. But this year Prince Charming and I exchanged small gifts. I got him a card and slippers because he's been complaining about not having any. And he loves them. He got me a hat to match my jacket and a Lights CD because I've been wanting it.
I got swept up in the spirit and Zelda and I painted our fingernails and toenails red and white with hearts on them. I didn't get a picture of her nails, but here's what mine look like and her's are just the inverse.
Happy Valentine's Day! Your nails look purdy. :)

Very cute! I'm of the hating-V-Day group, but it's interesting to hear the reason why we *started* celebrating this holiday! Very cool!
