Happy VD? Happy or not, I'd get that looked at.

My only complaint with 'Happy VD' is that VD has in the past most often been used to refer to venereal disease :)

No I think it's more like this "You leave me little notes on my pillow. I told you 158 times I can't stand little notes on my pillow. "We're all out of cornflakes. F.U." It took me three hours to figure out F.U. was Felix Ungar!"
I get this gift and it takes me 3 hours to figure out V.D. was Valentines Day ..was I relieved
