Pretty funny - forgot I started this thing, then forgot which site it was on. Had to get a new hard drive and didn’t think about saving my bookmarks. It was weird not having a computer for such a long time. I had brought it in to work and it took them a long while to get to it.
Tomorrow night I go to a singles dinner/dance with my friend’s church. Day before Valentines - no pressure there.
I hate Valentine’s Day - especially when other single people run around giving each other candy and crap. It’s sort of like rubbing it in even more. “Hi - you’re not with anyone? I’m not with anyone either. Have some chocolate.”
It’s not like I’m against relationships. I think I want one. We’ll know for sure once I’m in one, I guess. But I just hate people trying to over-compensate for my singleness. Do I run around and tell pregnant women “ooh too bad you’re too big to wear these jeans like I have on.” Or “too bad you’re married and you’re busy getting skid marks out of a grown man’s underwear to drop everything and head to the beach with me.” But it’s okay for people I barely know to “include” me in on the lover’s holiday with that piteous “I’ll be your Valentine” drivel.
