V-Day

This year...

I'm not single...I haven't been completely unattached other Valentines Day, but this year...officially I am not single. In fact, I'm very much in love with my boyfriend. I consider myself very lucky to have him in my life.

When I was single, I hated Valentines Day. It was just a reminder of how much of a loser I am because I didn't have a boyfriend. Most years I didn't even want one...it was just this day, everyone saying I love you and getting gifts. Me...I got nothing. I got crapola!

Now...today I got chocolate...Lindor Chocolate. My favorite. And you know what? I still hate Valentines Day. It's a crap holiday. My boyfriend didn't have to get me something, but he did and I appreciate that he did, he made the effort. But come on! It's crap!! Completely crap!! It's a stupid ass holiday that is supposed to be romantic, but isn't even really romantic at all! I have to be romantic because it's the most romantic day of the year!! What's so romantic about having to be romantic because the girlfriend or wife expects? I want my boyfriend to be romantic because he wants to be and because he loves me and because it's spontaneous. I remember the day he wrote me a song and played it for me. That was romantic! And there wasn't any special reason. He wasn't forced to do it. It wasn't my birthday. He just did it out of the blue for me and I melted. Coming into bed and kissing me and putting his arms around me and telling me I'm beautiful. That's romantic. Valentines Day is the most unromantic holiday.

Maybe I'm bitter because I never had a good Valentines Day. This one wasn't bad, but it was nothing special or different. It was just another day for me. I just see Valentines Day as a pointless holiday and I guess in a way...a let down. It's never a good as it shows on TV or in the movies :P .


On another note... GO CANADA GO!!!!!
