The day of days

 That time of year is quickly approaching. The time that can make or break a man. A time of much joy or absolute and utter horror for us of the male gender. It is a time that even when we think, we, the male species, have done good and are pleased with what we have done can be shown just how wrong and/or mistaken we were orrrrrrrrr that we actually went above and beyond that which was required or expected of us.

 Oh the horrors and torment us guys go thru during this time of year. All the uncertainty and mysteries of the yet unknown plague us and our minds causing tremendous grief and discomfort. It is also that time of year that men are most likely to go bald due to stress and the pulling out of our own hair not to forget that us men folk also suffer the most headaches mostly due to the fact we beat/bang our heads against the wall due to the severe pressure that we are under.

 Oh the agony, the cruelty, and the horrors that can be brought on by this day of days. But on the other side of the coin, their is the great rewards that can be placed upon us, the fortunate few, that have overcome adversity in this great time and it is this reward that makes men everywhere know that what they have done/accomplished was not in vain and makes us forget the ordeals that were placed upon us.

 This day of days is almost here. The day men tend to despise and even fear but women look forward to with great awe and anticipation. That day is Valentines Day. The day that can either make or break us men folk. Many men have been driven insane simply because of this 1 day of the year. Tax time is nothing compared to Valentines Day. If we screw up on our taxes we have to answer to the feds, but if we screw up on this day we have to answer to a woman. Ohhhhh the horror. No man ever wants to have to go thru that simply because we don’t go thru it just once but are forced to re-live our mistake over and over at any time and at her will. You can always pay the feds off. If only women were that easy.

 Even with everything that has been said thus far, it is, and I will admit this, it is us men that bring the torment upon ourselves. In fact, women are actually easy to please. A simple kiss or just an I love you is all that is needed for the most part. Fixing or taking them out to dinner or even helping with household duties or even giving them flowers just out of the blue can do more for a woman than a guy can ever imagine and we can even score those ever so important brownie points which do come in handy from time to time.

 Women are simple creatures to please for it is the little things that most times brings them the greatest of joy and memories. But, and this is of the utmost importance and that is if we screw up, especially on Valentines Day or anniversary, I won’t say birthday simply because most women tend to quit having them at a certain age, the consequences can be and are often times severe causing us guys to sleep with 1 eye open, that is for those of us that are either brave enough or stupid enough to do so. Do I need to remind everyone of Phil Hartman, may he RIP, or even, this is very painful to mention but it must be said even tho I am cringing, John Bobbit???

 Times are tough for everyone these days. People are out of work and losing all that they worked hard for and money is a scarce commodity and women, probably more than anyone, knows this and they really aren’t expecting to get the big bouquet of roses, big box of chocolates or even jewelery. with that having been said, us guys can give our better halves the respect and acknowledgment they deserve and also doing something special for them like that which was mentioned earlier. All women really want is to know that they are loved and we can atleast show that to them.

 Next week is the day of days. The day comes but only once a year, thank goodness and like I said, that day can make or break us guys. So next Tuesday, enjoy VD with your better half and do right by her. Don’t end up like Phil or having a "Bobbit" done to you. Let her know just what she means to you. If you do this, you can get her love and respect in return and possibly even some "BOOM CHICKA WOW WOW CHICKA WOW WOW".
