no massacre here

Happy St. Valentine's Day. I knew he was the patron saint of lovers but I had no idea he was also the patron saint of beekeepers and greeting card manufacturers.

This year my wife and I promised to get each other 50 cent Valentine cards. I don't mean Curtis Jackson cards, I'm talking about greeting cards that are two for a dollar at Dollar General. While I was looking for a card, a nice old lady suggested I look in the rack holding the $1 cards that she was buying. I hope I didn't offend her when I told her Valentine's Day wasn't worth a whole dollar. She walked away quickly. Our budget has been rather tight lately, so it makes sense for my wife and me not to waste money on gifts like flowers, chocolates or creepy devil balloon things:
