happy hallmark day

i have always had something against valentine's day.  maybe it goes back to high school when i bought my boyfriend at the time all this stuff and he ended up breaking up with me the same day.  talk about rejection! i also think it is silly that we have a day where we are supposed to show people how much we love them. shouldn't we do this everyday?  why can't i do it on some random tuesday in september?  i also think i hate the holiday so much because i don't like being left out of things.  when you're single and you  see everyone around you with flowers, balloons, and stuffed animals it makes you feel like you're not special.  i am special, so why does there have to be a day that make singles feel so bad?  so the holiday is stupid!


i know, i know... i'm not single this year.  i'm SO lucky to be in a relationship with M.

but i'm a hypocrite.

i hate the holiday.

i don't want to celebrate it and give into hallmark.

but at the same time, a very small part of me is disappointed i didn't get flowers today.

don't get me wrong.  M sends me flowers all the time.  i just got some beautiful ones last week.  i would rather have the flowers for no reason than because it's valentine's day.  but it goes back to feeling left out.  i feel like i'm missing out on something.

anyway, i'm glad this day is almost over.  it wasn't so bad this year knowing i have someone who loves me very much, but i still hate the over commercialized day of love. blah! :oP
