It's the dark of the moon, thank heavens! Last year it was the full moon on Valentine's and again on St Patricks Day, trying to arrange things at the Inn and then being locked up before dark almost drove me crazy. This time I'm going to enjoy every minute ( Read more... )

It's nice to be back in Sunnydale, I think.  Not so cold, although the sea is there, just like Collingwood.  I wanted to have a big meal before we came back, but Spike said "No" and it was him who went around and saw it all, there.  We got what we went for and came back. I haven't seen it yet. Soon, though.

So I came back hungry. I never put on ( Read more... )

*Valentine's Day Night. Spike has just returned to the Crawford Street Mansion. Has a Valentine's Day card addressed to Buffy in his hand. Puts it in his pocket. Is frustrated that he was too nervous to leave the card with the box of chocolates ( Read more... )

I also got a box of chocolate. Again with no card ( Read more... )

Valentine's Day is definitely one of my top two American holidays. The whole concept of men being guilted into buying their ladies gifts to show how much they really care is my kinda holiday ( Read more... )

I hate this time of year. I especially hate Valentines Day. And not just because I don't have a boyfriend at the moment. Well okay, maybe that is most of the reason. But I really don't need a guy. And certainly don't need a guy to lavish me with gifts. I don't even know what lavish means, but I think it's good ( Read more... )

Man, Valentine's Day is a major pain. Worst part is I'm out over $200 bucks. But do gotta keep my girl happy ( Read more... )

The redder of the two water-beasts actually seems to know humans apart. It dislikes men and shows a marked preference for the female voice.
