happy hallmark and chocolate companies want to rip you off day

it was just before eight this morning and we were in the tunnel between rosslyn and foggy bottom. i was busy reading the paper when the metro announcer came on and told everyone to put down their books and newspapers and listen up for a minute. he wanted to wish us all a happy valentine's day. and he didn't stop at that. he went onto tell all the women not to go home and cry if they didn't get a valentine today. and then he advised all the men to make sure they didn't go home empty handed tonight. because honestly, what woman doesn't dream of getting a giant heart shaped chocolate??

update: i just got out of a meeting with some clients from michigan and the one guy brought a giant heart of chocolates. he felt awkward giving it to my coworker (a guy) so he gave it to me. must have read my mind.
