Nothing says romance like a last minute race to CVS for slim pickings on Valentine’s Day cards. That’s right: hubby didn’t get the memo that since Valentine’s Day was such a hit last year with girlfriends and wives, that they’d do it again this year! I know, I know- there are some dates that just vanish from year to year, but for some reason, Valentine’s Day just happened again.

How did I know that he made a last ditch effort to get me a card?

It was the same card I saw when I was there only an hour before; standing amongst the other pathetic spouses who would no doubt be in the dog house.
