Trust Me Men, Don't Do This!

I've already shown I'm not much of a romantic in my prior post about Valentine's Day.

But even I know better than this.   Its probably not the best idea to take your wife (or girlfriend) to the nearest Waffle House for Valentine's Day to "get scattered, smothered and covered in romance" (their quote, not mine).  My guess is she'd rather go out to dinner, receive flowers, or even chocolate.  Even a cheap Hallmark card is probably better than a trip to the Waffle House!

Yes, even I know that . . .

No waffling on that decision....

I was going to take the wife out to Taco Bell, but thank you Dr. Riddlebarger for posting this. I'm gonna get scattered, smothered, and covered for Valentine's Day! Yeehaw!

I already pre-planned to go to Ikea with my wife ... for some odd reason she thought that was romantic. Women - who can figure them out?

I was just going to skip dinner and just give her a Sham-Wow. Ya know Kim, it was made by Germans so it has to be good - according to the commercial.

Oooooo, I want to go to the Waffle house for those high end menu items, steaks and chops! Do they have possum pie?

I was able to get a few "before we were married" dates in at the Waffle House but, not any more. I still cannot believe I took here there, on a date. Waffle House is now the birthday breakfast spot for my 5 kids.

scat·ter (skāt'ər) Pronunciation Key
v. scat·tered, scat·ter·ing, scat·ters

v. tr.

1. To cause to separate and go in different directions.

3. Physics To deflect (radiation or particles).

v. intr.

Sounds romantic to me. I would certainly get scattered if I took my wife there. I would get scattered for even thinking about it.

Actually, I wouldn't mind a place like waffle house...beats waiting to be shoehorned into a fancy restaurant with miniscule portions and exorbitant prices! But maybe that's just our family....as my husband asked me, "I'm going to race in a bike race on the 14th, we don't have anything going on that day, right?" (He'll be back in time for the Lord's Day, don't worry!)
