Valentines Day

Well, another Valentines Day is upon us. I, like many of you out there, am single, we won't get into why ;) Needless to say, tomorrow, is not a day I'm looking forward to. The media will bombard us with tales of love, ideas for what you can get your loved one, ideas for things you can do with your loved one and so on. Now, I'm not a complete heartless bastard by any means, but it's not exactly the highlight of my year to be reminded that I'm alone. I will send out cards and e-cards to friends and family wishing them a Happy Valentines Day, and hope that this year, unlike last year, I get some of those myself.

Sure, I sound like I'm wallowing in my own misery, and perhaps I am. However, after a lifetime of crappy Valentine's Days, I think you'd be pretty unhappy too. I've never had a great Valentine's Day, even when I wasn't single and had someone to share it with, something always went wrong. Some of you may think I'm exaggerating, but trust me, it's the truth. So this year, despite being alone, and not all that cheerful, I'm going to try and do something for me, what I'm not sure of yet, but something.I think I'm going to get myself some chocolates, put on some Barry White, light some candles and make an evening of it ;) If no one else wants to love me, I'll just take matters into my own hands. :)

Happy Valentine's Day!
