Make a New Plan Stan
Valentine’s Day is the most ridiculous “holiday” ever manufactured. It’s lamer than lame. I’ve always hated it. Lest you think this is just sour grapes, let me say that despite my protests the hubs always gets me something. The thing is it’s not a woman thing where I say, ”please don’t get me a gift” and then get all pissy when he doesn’t get me anything. I think the actions of the other 364 days of the year mean more than flowers on some arbitrary date. Instead I’m going to buy myself something nice and not call it anything cutesy. I just want to go shopping. Shouldn’t you love yourself first? Here are a few of my “of the moment” wants.
Lush has some great deals on their new Lily Savon, handmade soap. It’s only until Feb. 14th, so order quickly. If you’re dreading the inevitable annoying questions, why don’t you get them gift wrapped and have them shipped to your office and only offer up a sly smile when Louise from Accounting asks who it’s from. That’s not lying, right? Bod’s Amazonian Nut Body Butter just screams buy me and rub me all over your body. That sounds dirty.
Now if you just really cannot help yourselves from getting caught up in all the romantic propaganda, I give you permission to get the Ecstasy Collection Bath Oil and Shea Souffle from Carol’s Daughter. I say this only because I really, really want it myself and well I think it would be the type of gift that um…would keep on giving throughout the year, ahem. Wink, nudge. Tell me you wouldn’t be happy if your “signif” got this for you and it came with a lovely bath and massage. Wait a minute, what’s happening here? I feel the earth shifting and the squeal of swine coming from the sky. I might actually be looking forward to the 14th. My ethics are obviously easily swayed by body oil in a pretty bottle. So sad.
