I attempted to settle for a Domino's pizza (of the lady's choice of toppings, of course), a heartfelt poem, a hastily signed Hallmark card, and the return of myself and our child from five days of being snowbound away from my Valentine... but I think she would have preferred the flowers and candy anyway.
