HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

To all my fellow OZ glowers. May your day be filled with red glow from the hearts of our loved ones, or may you find love on this day.

Did You Know?

- 2.2 million marriages take place in the United States annually. That breaks down to about 6,000 a day.

- 138,600 marriages were performed in Nevada during 2003. So many couples "tie the knot" in the Silver State that it ranked fourth nationally in marriages, even though its total population that year was 35th.

- 25.3 and 27.1 are the estimated U.S. median ages at first marriage for women and men, respectively, in 2003. The age for women is up 4.3 years in the last three decades. The age for men is up 3.9 years.

- The proportion of women 20 to 24 years old who had never married more than doubled between 1970 and 2003 — from 36 percent to 75 percent. Changes were also dramatic for men — the corresponding rate for men in this age group increased from 55 percent to 86 percent.

- 54% and 57% are the percentages of American women and men, respectively, who are 15 and over and currently married.

- There were 4.6 million cohabitating couples who maintained households in 2003. These couples comprised 4.2 percent of all households, up from 2.9 percent in 1996.

- There are 118 single men (i.e., never married, widowed or divorced) who are in their 20s for every 100 single women of the same ages.

- There are 33 single men (i.e., never married, widowed or divorced) age 65 and over for every 100 single women of the same ages.

- 24.6 pounds of candy per capita was consumed by Americans in 2003; it is believed a large portion is consumed around Valentine’s Day. Candy consumption has actually declined over the last few years; in 1997, each American gobbled more than 27 pounds of candy a year.

- The combined wholesale value of domestically produced cut roses in 2003 was $52 million for all operations in 36 states, with $100,000 or more in sales. Among all types of cut flowers, roses were second in receipts to lilies ($70 million.

- There were 28,914 jewelry stores in the United States in 2002. In February 2004, these stores sold $2.4 billion worth of merchandise — a much higher total than in the preceding month or succeeding months.

*mumbles, grumbles, complains*

*mutters* Happy valentines day.... i guess....bah humbug! sleeping.gif

I've never thought of this as much of a holiday and more of a lame-ass Hallmark-created celebration to move cards and candies and teddy bears. Also it's an excuse for girls to lay guilt trips on guys.

Then again, I'm not your typical girl...I don't get all mushy over Valentine's day.... t'is another day of the week for me. I'm not overly into flowers, they just die after a week, and teddy bears are corny...now get me something like glow for my car and you just won me over biglaugh.gif

Side note-- you know how they have the conversation heart candies with the sayings on them? Well my mom found me some jellybeans with sayings on them biglaugh.gif That's cool as hell

I was horrible for V-Day. It's also my parent's anniversary (28 yrs btw) and they had to wait till i was out of class at 9:00 at night to get a card and a dozen different colored roses. Hey, payday was Monday and had to but my stuff later that night.

Got my bf a lil red frog that says "be mine" on it and a card. My day was good all in all. icon_smile.gif
