Watashi no barentain ga desu ka?

Happy Valentine's Day to one and all. The tradition here is for women to give chocolate to the men, and not just ones they like, but the ones they work with too. They get a payback on March 14, White Day, when the men are supposed to reciprocate. It's not clear that male co-workers/bosses actually do this, however. (And we all know how husbands and boyfriends can be.) Some women are up in arms about the whole thing. I just know I got some tasty chocolate thanks to Yamada-san. Maybe I'll go see if there's any left, although it's possible the grad students have gotten to it.
