The Queen's Meme

(Link in meme-roll)
The UnValentine Grumpy Meme

1. I, Mimi Pencil Skirt Peace Woman, have officially declared war on Valentine's Day. If I see one more chocolate rose covered in stupid red tin foil paper I'm gonna have a fit. What did you get for Valentine's Day?
Uh, yeah, cards, and a dozen iced sugar cookies. Which are gone. The cookies, not the cards. I still have the foil-covered chocolate rose I got a couple of years ago. Pretty to look at, and I'm sure the chocolate is/was crap anyway.
2. What will you miss most about Valentine's Day?
Not much. I had to work. Sparky had a date. Beast and I sat around watching Daytona and Olympic coverage. Oh, I did get to sleep in a bit.
3. What could you have done differently yesterday to make the day sweeter?
If I had any more sugar yesterday I'd've had to be hospitalized in a diabetic coma. I'm barely kidding.
4. How many roses make a dozen?
Thirty.
5. You and your love are getting matching tattoos for Valentine's Day. What will they be?
They will be invisible and painless. In other words, this ain't happening.
6. My kingdom for a man who can spell. I am so tired of getting text messages from college educated 45 yr old men like .....I miss u ....wat up?.... B there by 8... or the ever popular U home? Does your significant other have an annoying cute little habit you'd like to break?
Yes. I really really really really really wish he'd stop with the handsy stuff. After 25 years though, that's hardly likely.
7. What did you get someone for Valentine's Day, if I may ask?
Sparky got a card. Beast got a couple of cards and a box of Whoppers. Oh yeah, we are ALL about Romance.
8. No one is looking. I promise.Blockquote
Write one word on this candy heart you've been dying to say to a romantic connection from your past. I will not tell.
"Actor?"
9. Be a poet. Write a 4-line poem starting with Roses are red....
"Roses are red / The sky is white / I really hate it / Whenever we fight."
10. What song best describes your Valentine's Day experience this year?
"Workin' for a Living"
11. I, Mimi Grumpy Skirt, am so glad this meme is almost over. This is my final question. I made it eleven questions in honor of the 11 roses I didn't receive. Aren't they lovely? This is my final final question, Regis:
Two cupids are in a knock-down, drag-out fight on the floor of the Senate. One is a constituent from Venus, the other from Mars.
What is the name of the legislation are they fighting over?
I'm sure it's got something to do with Health Care Reform. Doesn't it always?

#8 - Interesting answer!
And your poem was lovely.

Pass the Whoppers.

Thank you for playing the Queen's Meme.

Healthcare reform... I bet you are right!

We aren't very romantic around here either. Valentine's Day was quiet and relaxed.
