Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope that the spirit of Valentine's Day carries through the rest of the year.  As with all holidays, I dislike the more and more commercialized that any holiday is becoming.  When we strip away all of the cheesy Valentine's gifts and President's Day Sales I think that we're able to focus what's really important about this weekend's holidays.  Our significant others and dead presidents (in that order).
I probably need a holiday to remind me about dead presidents significant place in history but I do not need a holiday that tells me that I should tell Megan that I love her.  That is done everyday.  Although, I see the value of Valentine's Day single and available individuals that have a great desire to find someone to spend this holiday with them.

I think that Ash Wednesday should be more commercially popular than it is.  There's nothing cooler than celebrating the beginning of Lent and 40 days before Easter.  I was at the supermarket the other day and I saw the holiday candy aisle, on one side of the aisle was Valentine's Day candy and the other side had Easter candy.  This took me by surprise a little bit because I have totally not been in a Spring or Easter
 mindset.  I was like, "Oh yeah. Easter is like a month and a half away."  The one must have of Easter candy are the Cadbury Mini Eggs.

Happy Lover's Day!

I think that this day should be named "Happy Lover's Day!" This is a semi-personal blog post. But I just wanted to let Meg know how much I appreciate her and wanted to let thank her for all of her support and patience with me and my crazy entrepreneurial ideas.

Thanks Meg! I love you!
