Probably not doing anything for V-day. There hasn't been much excitement on this day since I've been in my current relationship (now marriage). There was way more drama when I was single, mostly surrounding not having anyone to do stuff with. Now that I'm in a relationship, I'm seeing that there's not so much exiting here either. Or maybe I'm just boring.
4 years ago - We'd just started dating. The big production for V-day was really made by his roommate, who made a point of cleaning the apartment and clearing out. If I recall, we made dinner together that night, then fell asleep watching TV.
3 years ago - He worked at an upscale restaurant at the time, so there's no way he was getting V-day off. I scheduled myself to work that night so I wouldn't be alone.
2 years ago - He was in Japan. I spent the evening alone with my cats and some Ben & Jerry's.
1 year ago - I was on call for work. We tried to go out to dinner but I kept freaking out: "OMG, we're going to order and then I'm going to be paged and have to leave and everyone will be pissed." Wolfed down dinner and managed to make it home before getting paged and working most of that evening.
This year - We don't have any money to spare (on one income right now and saving for a house), so while flowers or something would be nice, I know I'm not getting anything because we can't afford it. We have a volleyball game tonight, so it'll be a quick dinner and then off to the rec center.
ETA: Work did give everybody chocolates this year, though. That was sweet of them.
