This Valentine's just past, I actually tried to finagle my way into the first marital intercourse of 2014. (Yeah, that's why I hobby.) I even went so far as to stock up the wine rack, order chocolate covered strawberries delivered to her at work, place large bouquets of flowers both at the dining table AND at the front entry-way table, her favorite romantic music on the old Victrola -- and at the last minute she decides to invite another couple (the wife of that couple being definitely NOT menage a quatre material) to join us for dinner. Before they got there, I doubled the recipe, ditched the extra flowers and swapped the music for some Meatloaf "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights." Figured that would piss her off.
To help hide my frustration, I made a reference at the dinner table to how Valentine's Day was just a chick holiday anyway, and that guys didn't care about it at all. The lovely Mrs. Stag protested -- "look at all you did - surely that's not true." I of course insisted it was true, and suggested instead that the ONLY male holiday is Steak and Blowjob Day. Both women protested violently that I had just made this up, but the other husband sheepishly admitted that he had heard about it, too. I had to Google the web site and show it to Mrs. Stag to prove it was true.
To which she replied, "Well, that's ONE holiday we won't be needing to celebrate. That's disgusting."
Apparently, she doesn't like steak.
Nevertheless, for March 14, I'm planning a lunch trip to Fogo De Chao and a session at Relax2013. By fuck, SOMEBODY's going to be celebrating that goddamn holiday!

I too was hopeful on V-Day. It had been about a month since my last coitus with the SO, and I had pulled out all the proven tricks that day. Anyway, I get home - excited - and went to the restroom to take a leak. And what do I see in the waste basket......?...two used tampons and wrappers
DAMNIT!!!!
