Let Them Eat Chocolate

Happy Valentine's Day!

(Even though every day should be Valentine's Day, no?)

On this day in which we celebrate a love-lorn medieval saint/martyr who got his butt stuck in prison, let us ruminate on what love is:

* Love is a belching contest with good friends.

* Love is leaving the last chocolate for someone else.

* Love is publicly humiliating yourself for someone else's pleasure.

* Love is road trips and staying in sketchy hotels and eating hot dogs because you both love them.

* Love is taking care of yourself so you can care for others. Awww...ain't that sweet.

Which brings me to my Valentine's Day gift to myself: Sadism.

For yes, ladies and gentlemen, today I am going to......

The Dentist.

I love my teeth. My teeth are not so in love with me right now. They try to love me, but know that I have not dedicated the time, energy & expenses necessary to keep them in prime condition. Therefore I am dedicating my Valentine's Day Agony to my teeth.

Teeth, I love you.

You help me eat chocolate.

You provide me with the opportunity to enjoy steak and tater tots.

You help me open my nail polish bottles.

Thank you teeth. I love you.
