I love it when people mispronounce ValentiMes! It's just so trashy!
If you have full faith in God, if you have full faith in the truth that whatever happens to you happens according to the will of God, then every place, every moment, and every event of your life will begin to feel sublime. ~Muktananda
Today I am grateful...
- that to me, my life seems a miracle
- that I will strive today to not let my expectations become demands
- that I survived the miserable existance of being a practicing alcoholic
- that in recovery, in working the steps, those dark, dusty corners have been swept clean
- that love can be found in dusty corners
- that if you're feeling unloved, visit a 12:15 meeting at Lambda
If we're going to stay sober, we've got to learn to want something else more than we want to drink. When we first came into A.A., we couldn't imagine wanting anything else so much or more than drinking. So we had to stop drinking on faith, on faith that someday we really would want something else more than drinking. ~Twenty-Four Hours a Day

I just want to not have expectations. That is a big character defect of mine. I would add that love appears when you sometimes least expect it.
Living in Western Kentucky I have the unfortunate pleasure to hear ValentiMe's Day quite often. Alas, it is my cross to bear.
*sigh*
So
Happy Valentime's Day, you hunka-hunka-burnin'-luv!
I used to work with a trashy woman with a Superiority Complex. She was the Queen of Malapropisms.
Valentine = Valentime
K-Mart = K-Mark
Chaperone = Chafferone
Digital = Digikal
I'm so glad I knew her, and so grateful I will never have to see her again.
Almost forgot one...
Chimney = Chimley
Of course.
Happy Valenthymes Day. Love is in the air. An addition to Bill's list of malapropisms which has to be the top of the list:
Nucular. Oh ICK!!!!!!!!!!
Love to you Scot.
my very favorite is: undoubtably.
that will send me screaming, along with irregardless.
I also dislike the phrase "for the simple fact that".
Happy Valentimes Day Jose'
Faith will trump addiction every time, if you let it.
I work with a woman I love, and somehow I keep my mouf shut when she says too many things to list, but among them:
Valentimes.
Supposenly.
