HAPPY VALENTINE\u2019S DAY 2019<\/h1>\n

With so much pain in this world these days, I feel a bit vapid, celebrating a silly holiday. But we all need a little love, especially right now, so on we go.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s sort-of nice that Valentine’s Day falls on a late week-day this year, so not everyone feels they have to celebrate at the same time. Being a Thursday, many couples will postpone the festivities until the week-end, making it easier for usual non<\/em>-celebrants, such as Mr. X and me, to go out on the actual<\/em> holiday, though we usually do not<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>

The iconic Italian restaurant scene from Lady and the Tramp.<\/p><\/div>\n

But today will be special in that we\u2019ll be going out to…the marvelous El Capitan theatre in Hollywood to see none other than one of the most romantic movies of all time\u2014Disney\u2019s Lady and the Tramp<\/em>!<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t usually like to repeat events, and we did<\/em> do exactly this same thing on a long ago Valentine’s Day, but for me, this is the perfect way to celebrate. And, since we already made a delish pasta dish to have when we get home, you just know that we\u2019ll be sharing a strand or two, to emulate the in-love canines. (And if you<\/em> want to emulate us<\/em>, here\u2019s my recipe that we\u2019ll be using: itsnotaboutme.tv\/news\/recipe-karens-checca-pasta-recipe-with-a-lot-of-choices<\/a>. Sorry\u2014no meatballs.)<\/p>\n

Of course, there\u2019s absolutely no shame in not celebrating at all, whether you\u2019re coupled-up or not. It\u2019s literally just one day out of the year.<\/p>\n

\"Can<\/a>

Can anyone see the two things that are making me crazy about this greeting card? Ready–1) The “G” isn’t capital, which it should be, and 2) There should be an apostrophe before the “s.”<\/p><\/div>\n

And singletons of both sexes can just hang-out with their pals tonight. Mr. X and I were apart on one February 14, so I made it a \u201cGalentine Day,\u201d and went out to afternoon tea with a few of my gal pals. (And we all wore red, of course.) I actually used the term \u201cGalentine\u201d all those years ago, and it\u2019s finally coming into vogue just now. Better late than never. But I love being a trendsetter, no matter how<\/em> long it takes for others to catch on! (I know, I know\u2014people are trying to make Galentine\u2019s Day be on February 13th<\/em>, instead of 14th<\/em>, which is just stupid\u2014the whole purpose of it is to not be alone on Valentine\u2019s Day<\/em>! Do I have to think of everything<\/em> for some people???)<\/p>\n

So, we\u2019ve established that I love Mr. X and my friends. But there\u2019s one<\/em> group of people I adore above most. And that\u2019s…you<\/em>, dear readers! My readers and social media followers are seriously near and dear to my heart. Every time I meet \u201cfans,\u201d I just want to give them my first born, to show how much they mean to me! (Of course, I never had kids, so that\u2019s out of the question. However, I\u2019m always willing to give away my siblings and their fams. But those are stories for not<\/em> this day of love!)<\/p>\n

No matter what you<\/em> all do to celebrate today\/tonight, or not, have a fabulous and Happy Valentine’s Day! And remember, this<\/em> Valentine loves you all!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
