Happy Valentine’s to Me!

So, Saturday was Valentine’s Day and I have to say I’m not a girl who appreciates romance, so I’m not upset that I didn’t “get” anything.   Glen didn’t even utter the words “Happy Valentine’s Day”.

You’ve probably read about the 30 weddings that were at the Brisbane Registry office and I happened to be  in the city in the afternoon, and I saw quite a busy churches.  I can’t say that I would like to get married on any “special” date other than your anniversary.  Can you imagine marrying the love of your life on say - Valentine’s Day - and then 5 years later you find the love of your life banging his secretary on her desk.  Then guess what? For the rest of your life - YOU HATE VALENTINE’S DAY!

My anniversary with Glen is 11 September.  Glen’s attempt at humour is “Two disasters have happened on September 11.”

Would I get married on September 11?  Sure, it has good memories for me.  Guess what? It falls on a Saturday next year.
