Sorry for the momentary hijack, GB. But I just need to tell raliced I have a major girl crush on her. One of my high school BFF's and I both love the word hirsute, and we try to use it in conversation whenever it's appropriate. I need to tell her we have a sister in California.
I love hanging around vocab aficionados. I have spent a lifetime dumbing down my talents. I need to go find myself a local raliced. Well, raliced the guy.
Ok, end of my love fest. I applaud what she said, BTW. Besides, even when I was dating and happily married, I hated VD. Yes, I've *always* called it VD. It's a day when every other woman, man, child and animal is in the spotlight. It's always been really non-special to me. Give me my fricking birthday, hands down. I love being the Queen Bee on MY special day--to be shared with NO ONE. At least no one that I know. VD schmee dee. Give a f*ck. Take yourself out to dinner, have wine on... you, and celebrate that you're no longer married to a middle school boy masquerading as a man. Someone out there will think you're the bomb. If you want him to be hirsute, well, that's possible.
