Vain Valentine’s gifts?

Last time I spent this much on a fruitless gift, it was back when I was in high school. The lady was Natalie Jones. The gift was, what I thought, a really nice sweater. It was cold in February at the time.

I think she wore the sweater one time to a church activity and came over to where we were standing. I think she knew who it was from, but being too shy or what not, I didn’t "play my cards right”… I suppose that is why she lied to me a few months later when I finally got the courage to ask her out.

Hold on, it was a Christmas gift and I asked her out around Valentine’s Day. So this year is the first purchase of it’s kind? I think so, maybe it would have meant more had we known each other better.

Ah, I figure if I’m not giving my money to someone that I choose, I’ll just get it taken from me by someone I didn’t choose. Oh well, maybe something good will result out of this.

Michael,

It is fun to read your website but it would be nice if sometimes you'd give a little context. What the *&^% are you talking about in this post?
