And By 'Love' We Mean 'Bitterness'

Valentine's Day wasn't just celebrated by Heidi and Spencer. Lots of Hollywood's players came out for the anniversary of love.

Bono raised money for charity, Hayden Panettiere took her little brother on a date, Joy Behar performed a comedy act, Simon Cowell busted out his best baby T — and Paris' publicist even washed the orange off his face to impress a new lady friend!

How did YOU spend Valentine's Day?

    Drunk with all the other single people I work with. Cussing out the commercialized sentimentality that only weeks earlier I had been planning to enjoy. Bah.

    Nothing. No reason to. It's a Roman holiday - nearly bastardized beyond recognition, but Roman nonetheless. We also don't see why we should give our hard-earned money to the card, flower, chocolate, or jewelry companies when we tell each other "I love you" every day.

    I like how Simon is stepping on his girlfriends foot so she can't get away.

    I ended up having a romantic dinner at Quiznos with 3 of our 4 kids and then chasing the little one as he tried to escape out the front door.

    I got a box of chocolates and fell asleep watching Sex in the city reruns with a chocolate turtle hanging out of my mouth. ROMANCE!

    Hey, I like chocoate and I never said, I love you, to anyone. I don't care for Hallmark but nobody besmirch Godiva. I will not have it.

    PS, What did Whitney do and are you optimistic or bitter about Valentines?

    Oh, don't get me wrong. I spend more $$ on chocolate than I should, it's my weakness. It just seems that celebrating Valentine's Day is more trouble than it's worth. I'm giving my husband a baby in a few weeks - that's all he needs. :)

    Valentine's day can be fun later in a relationship when you can make it ironic… but it's more like a due date than anything else. I hate due dates.
    Anyhow, I got to eat so many free cupcakes if you cut me right now I will squirt out icing.
    Some people gave me dark chocolate and I gave that to my mom because it would mean a lot to her (read: I only like milk chocolate).

    The best thing about Valentine's day is that it means in one day there will be plenty of discount sweets for your loved one/yourself. Chocolate Sales Eve is a lot more meaningful to me.

    Hey, I end up cutting myself when thinking about my love life anyway. It may as well make something tastier, jujubees!
    Actually, prozac seriously reduces my sex drive. So I'm not sad.

    I drank heavily, watched Lost with the fam, sent the kids to bed and had la-la for the first time in about a week with my man. Fell asleep and woke up just in time to realize I forgot to set the alarm. Didn't eat chocolate - didn't even have dinner if memory serves…all in all, just another night like every other night chez moi.
    drinking, watching tv and passing out. rather depressing

    I went out to a candlelight dinner of the finest cuisine w/my husband, he showered me with diamonds and compliments and then we came home and made mad passionate love.

    You believe that?

    I bought some chocolate for my candy dish at work. Then I went to a hypnosis appointment and later on went shopping for a lamp. Hold on, it's getting fierce around here!

    You're right about day after Valentines though, discounts on good chocolate is the best. I bought 2 lb.s of Sees candy suckers. I can't help it, I see a sale and I'm suckered in. Thank God I don't shop at Sam's Club.

    I spent 3 and a half hours at the ER with a cranky 2 year old and a puffed up face 8 year old, came home, ordered pizza, ate fast, drove children to ballet, came home, had long-distance fight with hubby on the phone, stayed up to late, then went to bed. This after I had just spent 3 days away from home because my beloved aunt passed away. Happy Fucking Valentine's Day, y'all.

    the day after Valentine's Day is the real holiday. 50% off chocolate? Now THAT'S a reason to celebrate.

    Neither me nor my husband think VD is worth celebrating (in any of its forms). We spent our evening watching most of series 2 of Jonathan Creek and eating ice cream.

    Well. I fought with my ex-boyfriend, ate half a tub of ice cream, walked the dog, and fell asleep on the couch, watching a show filmed from the inside of someone's fatal wounds (i.e., CSI). It was totally swell.

    I am not anti-Valentine's, but I am also one of those who believes you should treat your S.O. the way they deserve to be treated year-round.

    As for how I spent my day: My Valentine is long-distance, so I enjoyed dinner with some close friends and then went to an event, where someone obviously hadn't bathed. It smelled awful the whole night, and then on our way home in a cab my friend realized it was HER — she had taken her goat cheese-stuffed chicken breast to go and kept it in her purse all night long. Embarrassing.

    I think Valentines Day is sort of a terrible thing. I always get the feeling like men in particular are only guilted into doing something "nice". As if doing this one good deed will relinquish you from doing something nice for your SO for the rest of the year. If guys don't do anything for Valentines Day, they are ridiculed and made out to be terrible people. I'd rather every day be treated like Valentines Day rather than some obligitory holiday that is puffed up by Hallmark.
