Saying I Luv U For Valentine's Day
from the waste-no-time dept
theodp writes "According to the WSJ's Jeffrey Laslow, love letters ain't what they used to be. Passionate essays penned on Valentine's Days past have morphed into bursts of IM and e-mail affection. Stacie Harb doesn't seem to mind. She treasures her boyfriend's 37-word declaration of love, keeping it in her phone's saved messages. 'It's not some drawn-out, 10-page letter professing his undying love,' Harb says. 'That would be creepy.'"

Yumma yumma
My Japanese girlfriend sent me green tea chocolates from Kyoto. Here, have a piece :O
But yeah, given that we stay in touch by IM's all the time, a 10-page letter makes no sense.

(green tea chocolate). Re: Yumma yumma
Those sound so good (green tea chocolate). What are they called or what company made them?
Think there is anyplace that one can order them in the States??

Re: (green tea chocolate). Re: Yumma yumma
I checked, the exact brand I got was some limited edition product and looks like they sold out already.
There is this link for a similar product, I don't know if they deliver internationally.

The government has declared a 10PM curfew on Valentines, and outlawed sex.

My girlfriend dug up the link for me. And no, you won't be able to find it by an English-language google search.
