Roses in the garbage pail

So, Valentine's Day seems to be quite the deal here in the office. Earlier this morning I was fixing myself a cup of tea and in the little break room there were beautiful bouquets of flowers sitting in water in black garbage pails. I mean seriously, how nice is that? I had a good laugh.

Personally, I've never, ever, ever been one to celebrate Valentine's day. It's one of the most obnoxious holiday's that exist. Don't get me wrong, I love to get gifts and sweet little nothings from my D. But not on a certain day that says you're supposed to. I much prefer the hidden box of chocolates he put in my suitcase only to be found when I landed in Manchester in tears, or the many pieces of jewelry he gave me for no reason at all, the freesia flowers he left in my office drawer when we first started dating, blah, blah, blah. You get the idea.

So, here are these beautiful flowers sitting in black garbage pails on the floor. What a sight.

I'm going to buy some flowers for my altar today, since I haven't had a Valentine in like 2 decades!
