Night Note: Damn Cupids, Get Off My Lawn!
To: Crecente

Subject: Happy Valentine's Day!
So yes, today is Valentine's Day! And here in Japan, there's a slightly different spin on the holiday. Women buy men chocolates. Men, we do nothing. Well, not nothing. We eat the chocolates.
But! Next month is White Day. What is White Day? Hohoho, I shall tell you! Sometime during within the last thirty years, marshmallow makers decided that they needed a holiday to sell marshmallows. And that holiday was March 14th, AKA White Day. Originally, men bought marshmallows for women who gave them chocolate. Today, no one buys marshmallows. Hell, do non-campers even eat them? But, the name stuck. So I hafta think of something to purchase for Mrs. Bashcraft next month. Marshmallows?
What you missed while you were sleeping:
- V-Day story to get you all in the mood. Well, not "the mood," but "the mood." Ah, fuck it. Just read it.
- When talking to Alex Ward, be careful what you say, because he's likely to cut nutso and cut you.
- Movie studio bitchfest about the Halo movie pricetag.
- Now, THIS is a stained-glass casemod
In case, you're keeping score. Today's DS din-din was not green. In fact, it was noteworthy for its lack of green. Remarkable, huh?
Okay! Hope you are feeling better. I'm off to bed. See ya in the morning.
