Even the CSAs knew it was lame

GO tried. They did. They tried really hard to convince us that a GO gift card was the gift card that would guarantee steak and that other thing this Valentine's Day.

I didn't hear a single announcement on my rides today and someone at the Oshawa station had penciled in on the ad that was stuck on the shelter glass: "Guarantees a divorce. Buy diamonds instead," according to email I got.

I hate Valentine's Day. Always have. But my kid loves it and she orders my husband off to a store to purchase what she thinks are great gifts for me. She has a thing for vases. I have four vases, all red, and interesting in shape, because of her. She also knows her mom has a thing for Turtles. God bless that kid.

    Yup, would guarantee the divorce. And thank goodness someone clued in that no one wants to see their relationship implode because of a GO goft card.

    I used to have a thing for turtles. Until i realised how much they crapped. And tearing apart the kitchen to find the bugger after it went for walk.

    I assumed she was talking about the chocolate and caramel Turtles.
