VRD

Happy Friday!

Just when you thought it was over...

Apparently the day after Valentine's Day is a holiday, too. Wait, don't panic. It's just Valentine's Recovery Day (VRD). And no, I didn't make that up.

Conveniently, VRD also makes for a sly marketing ploy from Domino's Pizza. Check out an excerpt from this press release:

According to a survey recently conducted by Domino's on Maxim.com, respondents plan to put in an average of 6.42 hours to wooing their significant others on Valentine's Day, including preparations. Despite the great expectations, cost and stress that comes with this annual display of devotion, America still jumps at the chance to perform this true labor of love.

Ladies and gents longing for recovery on February 15 need only to reach for the nearest computer or phone to get Domino's Valentine's Recovery Day deal- two medium, two-topping pizzas, a 10-piece order of Buffalo Wings and four, 20-ounce Coca Cola products -- made with love for just $25.99.

What about you? Suffering from VRD, or just happy you made it out of Valentine's Day alive?
