14 February

I got the most hilarious card from my mother for Valentines Day. Actually, it wasn't the card, it's what she wrote in it, that I have been showing to everyone in sight, howling with mirth.

Here's what it said, here is what my mother wrote in the Valentines Day card to her 36 year old daughter:

"Take care of yourself!
See a doctor!
Have a mammogram!
Have a cholesterol test!
Wear warm clothes!
Wear scarves!
Eat vegetables and fruit!
Give up the regular Pepsi!
Limit the sausage biscuits to one or two a week!
Same limit to potato cakes, but make it one instead of two at a time!
Go to the dentist!
Sleep at least 8 hrs a night!
Listen to your mother!"

Yep, that was my card. I suppose most people are thinking of something somewhat different when they say that they want a loving card for Valentines Day, but you really don't get much more loving than that. If somewhat intense.

But there you go, that's my Mom!

What did you get for Valentines Day? Or what is the funniest thing that you have ever gotten?

And we're still talking about our big mouths and forum culture.

Today's horoscope:
You are quieter than usual, less inclined to reveal your thoughts and feelings. Solitary thinking brings some insights.

One year ago today:
"The man in the back, howling like a banshee was mine!"
