Once Again, Cupid Flies The Coop

The other day, I mentioned to The Professor that how, this year, I might actually celebrate Valentine's Day versus QuirkyAlone Day. He replied that, actually, he did not believe in the "Big V" because "why should I love my Sigot* any more on February 14 than, say, June 1?"

And I agree...he should like me best all the days in any given month! But, his declaration reminded me of a sad past Valentine's Day which consisted of the same machismo postering, a solo viewing of "Great Expectations", and a bottle of chilled Lipton Sweetened Iced Tea (ah, college) left in my apartment as a lame condolence prize that night.

Still, I am in sync with The Professor...the best time to let someone, anyone, know that (s)he is cared for, loved, adored, etc., is right now. No time like the present -- possibly literally. So I'll let him slip by on a technicality.

If other gals aren't so inclined, may I suggest dropping some heavy hints now for Katherine Dejarnette Babin's "unusual, striking pieces with carefully selected materials such as vintage glass beads, lockets & brooches, semi-precious stones, metals & textile"? I especially love (no pun intended) her Object Trouvé  collection.

(Hint, hint, Professor.)

Just kidding...I'll take you sans baubles, any and every day.

(*Sigot = Significant Other)

I bear witness to this bet, and if the Bears DO score 30 points against the Colts, I'll make sure The General eats his hat. Like, really, EATS his hat!

OMG, now I'm excited for the SuperBowl!!!
