I'm sorry that there's no Valentine's Day entry on actual Valentine's Day. I'm not bitter about the holiday; I just didn't feel well. Really and truly. Today is the first day I've been to work this week. I personally love Valentine's Day with all my single heart. Mostly, I love V Day because I buy myself fancy chocolates. And let's be honest. If I have a superhero weakness, it is fancy chocolates, preferrably the kind with milk chocolate outsides and fruit flavored insides. This V Day, however, I could not enjoy fancy chocolates because I was sick. That is the only reason it gets a small booo.
To be honest, I barely noticed Valentine's this year. Probably this is because I slept through most of it. So, my couch and I got to spend some quality time together. This is good because our relationship has been suffering. My couch feels that I am not home with it enough, and I feel that my couch needs to stop making so many demands on my time. It really takes something like getting sick on Valentine's Day to make you appreciate how much your couch really means to you, particularly when you need it most.
So, to recap, I like Valentine's Day, regardless of the fact that I am a single gal, particularly because I got to sleep through most of it without having to feel guilty, and my couch and I are working on growing closer together after this V Day.
On the whole, if I hadn't been sick, the day would have gotten four starships on a scale of five. As it was, it just gets two because, let's be honest, you can't give a day when you're sick more than two starships. That's just plain tacky.

I was grouchy for most of my V Day because I work in customer service and the dumb questions are slowly getting to me. Actually for some reason they get to me more on some days than others, yesterday was one of those days. Today isn't shaping up to be much better, but at least there are less questions so far today.
I would give my day one starship for work time and four starships for my off work time. Which only averages out to three starships, but that is ok for a vday in the middle of the week.

Ever since my roomate was in the Vagina Monologues on Valentines Day three years ago, the short form "V day" invariably makes me thing "Vagina Day." I guess that's the result of spending two months where every other conversation starts out "my vagina's angry!"
A curious accident of timing made for an interesting day yesterday. I believe it turned out pretty well.
