Thanks, **punha**!

Arrow received, affection returned!

::Taking aim and letting fly with an arrow straight to **punhun** ’s heart::

Now I have to go check on Cristi, who seems to be bleeding all over the foyer.

[sub]Bending over to check **Persephone** ’s wounds and…OUCH! I have been struck by a ricocheting arrow![/sub]

::gets whacked in the ass by someone’s stray arrow::

OW! Sunuva . . . Who’s arrow is this, and why is there a note attached saying “To Brad Pitt”?

For the love of God people, watch where you launch these things . . .

Well, I have my constant Tark-shaped valentine here already, and am as pleased as punch to have him. If I get to pick on from here, though…

I have to ask **Chef Troy** to be my valentine. C’mon, sweetie… 😃

Oww! What the heck? If I find out who shot me with this thing, I’m going to…oh, it was you, nevermind! 😉

I think I’ll shoot off one of my own aimed at **St. Attila**! (Nice picture on the People Pages, BTW!)

Well, my real life Valentine is of course, the one and only **Mr Bear** who will be home in my arms in about 13 and a half hours, give or take a few minutes. \<That plane had _better_ be on time!\>  
Pulling back my bow, sending the first arrow zinging straight to his heart. And she SCORES!!! 😃

Now, for my virtual and real life buddies:

:zing: one for maidenunicorn \<as my dear friend\>  
:zing: one for pipefitter  
:zing: one for Vestal Blue  
:zing: one for rose bear \<miss you, sis\>  
:zing: one for Danielinthewolvesden  
:zing: one for Ogre  
:zing: and for dpr \<even though he hasn’t answered my email\>

:zing: for the rest of my dear friends on here, too many to mention, and I’m running out of arrows, I’m afraid.

</div>

Trying to be coy and sly and seductive and all of those wild redhead kinda things, maidenunicorn attempts to sneak up on **lurkernomore** from the side. When she launches her arrow, he turns just as the arrow reaches him, so instead of hitting him in the heart, it instead smacks him in the backside \<which is also cute\>.  
_giggling_ _YES_!!! It’s a HIT!!!

Turning quickly, she then launches a second arrow in **Homer’s** direction. No one should be so sad on Valentine’s Day. And, this isn’t a pity shot either, JSYK.

Putting in a third arrow, she slings it at **JimB** , **Adam Yax** , and **Irishman**. \<Amazing what one good arrow will do, isn’t it? ;)\>

And of course, for my two bestest friends, **purplebear** and **Mr Bear** , some red roses, a box of chocolates, a bottle of champagne, and a key to the hotel. Don’t worry about your daughter, she’ll be safe with me. Enjoy, and have a happy anniversary. Love you both, Wy.

\<whispers: don’t tell your parents what we have planned, ok?\>

</div>

And, before she forgets again, some more arrows for her buddies from the Houston and the Dallas Dopefests.

No names, to protect the innocent. Or, to keep them from too much close attention by **Mr Bear** , as the case may be. 😛

But, all of you know who you are, don’t you? 😉  
You won’t be hearing from me for a while, though, per my friend Coldy’s suggestion, I may pop on on Tues sometime with a little message for y’all.

Would it be repetitive if I said **oldscratch**? In case anyone was wondering. 😉

And **spark applied to powder** , why thankya, I think! I don’t believe we’ve met…

We \<purplebear and maidenunicorn\> are so sorry, weirddave. Shame on us for that oversight. However could we have forgotten our favorite chat buddy, ear bender, mood picker-up-er and sweetie.

So, a Valentine’s for you, and a yellow rose from each of us. _smooches_ from both. 🙂

**True,** my couch snuggle partner, those whisperings were ANYTHING but nothings. I’m a little hurt I was third out of your quiver, maybe you were just practicing on the first two so you’d be sure to hit me, yeah, that’s the ticket!

So, as I have limited exposure to Dopers of the female type,

(draws, aims, bead of sweat rolling down brow, release)

Thhhhhhhhhhhhwak!

(hits **TruePisces** in her cute little behind)

**lnm** be darned!
