Cash!
How about an entire day or weekend for the two of you at a spa?
Does she like shows - you could take her somewhere to see a Cirque show or a play.
I know she's from CA - is there someone special she'd like to see you could fly in (AFTER V-day - give her the info ON V-day then reap the rewards.....) for a visit?
I'm betting you would give her pretty much what she wants the other 364 days, so you need to find something that she doesn't know she wants.
This is only if you're getting this for ME: Paint my house and fill in the squirrel divots under the bird feeders. Oh, and a 2004 4X4 F150 Crew Cab or a Wrangler.
You got everyone to help you pick your christmas gift for katie too!!!!
slack ass!!
:P
I think valentines day is one of the best days of the year ... because I sell lots of memberships to purve and lots of new people register to send ecards ... but all that romance and gift giving and crap makes me yawn.
i'm in a similar position though mike, i will probably have to buy a gift this year ... what do you buy a man for valentines?!?!?!?

Men are the easiest creatures on the planet. Make him a steak have a case of beer around and give him a blowjob.

CJ I am not lazy, I have come up with my own ideas. I went on my own for Chrsitmas.
Tim, Stan and I were back talking about ideas. So this is for all of us..... I am sure other guys ( and girls) will get some ideas as well.
It is brainstorming...

When you needed suggestions for a present before who came up with limo, dinner, tickets to Cirque idea for you?
Ok here we go - in reality you have a 3 part present
You moved to a new house in the past year so you need something for the house, it's V- Day so you need something romantic and Katie got you a great oil painting so you need a real stunner
First let's think some sort of landscaping for the house/yard if it's not already being done - you're in the Tampa area so think floral. It will always be a reminder and the blooms will bring smiles to your faces
Second - you need romantic, go for a real surprise and have a limo pick you and Katie up for dinner on the 12th - it's a Thursday much less crowded and a much bigger/ easier to pull off surprise - make sure the limo has flowers, godiva and wine stocked
Third - If Katie enjoys massages arrange a masseuse to come to the house or where ever is convenient - after the massage session is done may I suggest having new lingerie that you picked out and bought laid out for Katie
After all that you da' man!
My concierge availability is limited so everyone else can make requests now before I fill up

Actually V- Day gifts make men nervous (or at least me)
We then feel we have something to live up to or to top
An ex years back gave me the full treatment, she got me a dozen roses, cards, chocolates, liquor, made a incredible dinner, had candles lit in her room and surprised me with the new lingerie she was wearing after her clothes came off after dinner
and I'm thinking - this is great but I still have to top it
CJ - keep it simple and upfront - make plans to go away for the weekend or overnight somewhere- V-Day is on a Saturday
Edit - and do the dinner, drinks, sex thing - no pressure,
no gifts you have to try to make sure you didn't get them something they like and isn't bigger, more "meaningful" than what they gave you

i totally hear ya ...
i've done the 'nothing' gift and i've done the 'everything' gift - there's always a wierd feeling on 1 side!
i think i might just have a shave and get some chocolate body paint ... if it doesn't go well i can always just enjoy the chocolate on my own
mike, i was only joking! relax!! did I hit a touchy point or something???!!!

Personally I think the big huge night out on the town or jewelry is outdated. If you're going to do something like this make it mean more by cooking dinner yourself. Have candles around the tub.. make it a romantic night.
I think most ladies would prefer something that men have actually given some thought to and that's original and keep in mind doesn't have to be costly. Most times it's the little things that mean more.
personalized romance novel is excellent.
If you're sending roses send embossed roses with a message like I Love You.
Maybe my gift ideas might be a little extreme but they are definitely exciting!
A simple card that has a certificate that can be used any time with 24 hours notice.
“Slave for a Day”
The note says:
My darling,
I adore you and truly do exist to please you. No amount of money could ever buy the devotion I harbor for you. You have enslaved my heart and it gives me great pleasure to prove the depth of my love.
The Terms: Slave for a 24 hour period with at least 24 hours notice. Any type of slave you want me to be:
1) sex slave
2) domestic slave
3) money slave
4) all of the above
You set the parameters and your wish is my command.
Love,
YOU
I am a naturally dominant woman, however if I love someone I would gladly strip, collar and serve them for a 24 hour period. To me there is no greater expression of love and devotion.
Otherwise I want diamonds. Plain and simple.

That's the beauty of it, it's flexiable and you work out the terms. If you're the money slave darling just buy her some more slaves.

All this stuff sounds blow-your-mind romantic but it really doesn't take that much to make a woman satisfied on valentine's day.
Not me anyway, but then again I'm simple.
For me a handpicked flower, a nice dinner (salad, entree, maybe a slice of cheesecake for dessert), a hot bubble bath afterwards would definitely be heaven. Of course the kids would need to be elsewhere so you could have some nice music playing and not be screaming for them to eat their dinner.
But even the entree doesn't have to be fancy - I'd rather have something simple that tastes good than something that's gonna stress him out cooking it if it doesn't come out perfect.
V-day shouldn't be about pressure, it should be about spending some time together and taking a break from all the bullshit in the world for a while.

I recommend Sex Creator - they absolutely ROCK.
My idea of an awesome v-day is coming home (assuming I ever left my home) and see rose petals all over the floor, leading to the kitchen where my hubby has a nice bottle of wine waiting. He tells me to follow the rose path upstairs to my tub where rose petals are all over the floor, on the sink, in the tub of hot bubble bath. I get to soak in a nice hot bath sipping on my wine, and he brings out a nice dress that he has picked out for me. he helps get get dressed and hands me a rose. He then escorts me to the car where he takes me to a nice romantic dinner (preferably a nice restaraunt at a hotel). Where he has a dozen roses waiting for me. After dinner, he escorts me to a room in the hotel that has a hottub. Walking in the room I notice the floor and bed is covered with rose petals and a bottle of champain. He has me take the bottle out to the hot tub, where there are several dozen roses waiting for me........The rest, well, private =p
I agree with Carrie. I'm not into sappy romance type things especially when it's just being done because Hallmark says it should be done. :P Just two of you spending time doing something you both enjoy should be great. (and a Wranger..... :P )

Mike and I have plans on the 12th. But he can feel free to pick me up in a limo! And I always put out!
Brad - that must be why you're always smiling
Would you like a manly man masseuse?
Peaches - while I'm a good Dad, Sebastian's Mom is Super Mom, they do "crafts" almost everyday - yesterday I received a cat, dog and monkey all made by Sebastian
Think I'll take the easy way out and send her to a Jazz Brunch
