Subject: February

“I never did a What Do You Like About January post did I? Shoot. Oh well, there is always next year. Guess what! It's February!”

Frank groans. “Fine, but you go first.”

“Happily. I like February for Valentine's Day. I've only been dating Mark a little while, but I think it's long enough to get pampered on February 14^th.”

“The pampering is nice, but the best part about it is the chocolate. Sweet delicious chocolate. And even if you don't have a boyfriend, all the stores are selling delicious stuff.”

“Beware the Ides of February!”

“February 15^th? Is that your favorite part of February or are you just being stupid?”

“So's your face.”

“What? That doesn't even make sense.”

“So's your face always makes sense.”

“Scrubs reference high-five!” Scott and Frank high five, and then snap their fingers.

“Super Bowl! The Super Bowl is Sunday. Let's go big blue!”

“I didn't realize you were such a big Giants fan.”

“They're growing on me. Did you know that the Jets were named for the planes at neighboring LaGuardia airport and their colors come from the Hess gas station colors?”

“I didn't know that. That's a lovely history they have. Was Hess one of their original owners?”

“Yeah.”

“Back to the ides, pitchers and catchers report to spring training on February 15^th. Baseball season is getting closer!”

“Baseball high five!”

Sara and Frank slap five.

“I like February for my birthday. Quarter century this year.”

“25's a good number. I liked that age. I like Groundhogs day. It's such an unappreciated holiday.”

“Unappreciated? What's to appreciate? We make a big deal about a rodent coming out of the ground, and either bitch and moan about the cold weather, or cheer that it's almost spring. Woo Hoo.”

“I liked the movie too.”

“Fun movie. Doesn't make the holiday any better.”

“Doesn't make it any worse.”

Ann cuts in. “That's everyone! That wasn't so bad was it?”

“I liked January better.”

“I didn't do this in January.”

“Exactly!”
