Is It Really the Sweetest?

Rachna, Hazel, & I were in the grocery store yesterday night buying a few things for our APAMSA meeting, and the flower aisle was filled with heart balloons saying "Happy Sweetest Day." I'm like, "What in the world is Sweetest Day?!?!!" Hazel said, "Oh it's like a fake Valentine's Day." So, I googled it online and it's suppose to be celebrated every third Saturday of October. While its beginnings were noble, Sweetest Day morphed into one of those holidays where a retail whorefest is allowed. When couples can buy each other crap they don't need, and where single people go insane! It's another one of those holidays guys have to remember or otherwise face "The Wrath" for forgetting it. Not only do they have to worry about anniversaries & Valentine's Day..there's Sweetest Day too?! Guys, it sucks to be you.
