How I Celebrated Valentine's Day


The awesome guy I've been dating left on Saturday for a new job and a new life on the other side of the country. I was kind of a mess over the weekend. And then it was Monday. February 14th. Valentine's Day. Thanks to America's capitalist marketing machine, I was constantly bombarded by squishy sentiments and lovey-dovey images and even little cartoons of birds kissing and flitting around the Yahoo! logo. Oh my.

My Valentine's Day celebration involved a salad, my book, and a table for one. I didn't mind that there weren't any kissing birds flitting around.

I've been worse. I will feel better.

I'm glad you got a tasty salad and a good book.

But that boyfriend moving business just plain SUCKS.

I find Valentine's Day annoying.

I have always called it the most evil day of the year....and I'm married!

It's not as good as Groundhog's Day!!
