Valentine's Day. You're told that much like Christmas, the best way to show your love is to shower your special someone with gifts and attention. That's all well and good, but when was the last time you were told to do that for yourself? Women especially are taught how to show others love, but there's …

No jokes, no pranks, but I am going to do something I have here-to-fore thought a very foolish thing for me to do.  You know I've been on this "kick" here recently; in fact, you can say my blogging has been hijacked by my divinity and she has prompted me to post about things I …
