News and entertainment know what’s best. Let’s listen to them.

Column: V-Day vs. P-Day

The column’s up at the Daily Camera today. This week, we explore the idea of anti-Valentine’s Day parties and why I think they’re crappy and why we should really be able to move on instead of dwelling on how anti-Valentine’s Day or anti-anything else we are.

All of this is a manifestation of a little problem I have. My mother really put it succinctly today. She said, “Dave, you’ve never been very good at limbo.” True. And we’re not talking about the Lincoln Limbo, though it’s true that I’m also awkward and inflexible and prone to falling down in front of crowds of happy, inebriated people.

Oh, well.
