is there any noticeable change in the level of hobbying activity around Valentine's Day?

I can hardly remember what yesterday was like, let alone last valentine's day. Maybe I'll better be able to answer after valentine's day.

I can't remember last year either, but I find that in general holidays are slow - but I had like ten people call me on Christmas DAY - when I was at my Mom's - and nobody on New Years.  (Hung over?)

Really no time is too slow. The times between X-Mas and New Years a not as busy since the gents are usually getting their money together for Christmas gifts. But then again..its a great aliby for the wifey for the gent to go and play.

Well, considering that men in relationships are too busy being criticized for not going through the motions right that day and single men are too busy bragging about the fact that they didn't need to buy bath salts for anybody this February...I imagine I'll have a nice day off to relax.

You know...and then go mock my friends in relationships. "Hey, how's the getting a dinner reservation at the romantic Italian restaurant going? Not so good? Gee, and to think, I could be doing that instead of sitting home watching reruns of Futurama, eating sammiches and not wearing pants..."

I love single life too much sometimes.

Valentine's day doesn't really effect me, since i would never see anyone on that particular day. but i would guess that for the average provider things would be a bit slower, as most hobbyists are married or otherwise significantly attached, and would have a difficult time getting away and/or getting the extra funds.

Not unless you're wearing a heart on.   Ooh, bad Ciara.

...."not wearing pants"? You're a cutie, quinn, and I would like to say that one day I would love to meet you. But I don't think I would ever get out to your part of the country. So many women, so little time.
