I Hate Valentine's Day

Yes, I am aware that it's not V-Day yet, however, when I went into Walgreens earlier today, I was smacked in the face with all things pink and red and heartsy and other stuff proclaiming how this day is soooo special. Actually, isn't the real V-Day something to do with something in Italy? Yes? Maybe I just have Italy on the brain because I just finshed reading Angels and Demons. But for some reason I remember that when I was in Rome, Jess and I went on a tour and we had to rub some sort of statue outside a church for good luck or something and it had something to do with Valentine's Day. You know, I could probably look it up, but this way, the three people that read this can comment. haha. And no, I am not talking about the statue of the little kid peeing. That is in Brussels.

Anyways, so yes, I hate Valentine's Day. It is just another day for us singletons to feel bad that we have not yet found love. And smug marrieds and smug engaged and smugh relationship people can talk about how their significant other did the swwwweeeeettteessst thing. Ew. Whatever. I have one possible new boy lead, and other than that I got nothing. I do really wish I had an admirer though. Oh well.

So, has anyone been watching I Love NY on VH1? It is seriously such a trainwreck and I heart it so much!! Last weeks, with the mangeant? Good Lord. That was some good tv. Oh, and also, is anyone else pissed that 24 and Heroes are on at the same time? Or am I the only one who still has the old-school Tivo that can tape one thing, but you have to watch that one thing at the same time? I know, I should just break down and get Comcast DVR.

Up to Speed...

Well, my new years resolution to write in my blog more obviously got underway since it is 9 days after Jan. 1, but whatever, I am writing now, right? Let's see, have been keeping most of my resolutions except for being on time to work. Seriously, I just can't be. I mean it is possible but just not at the moment.

So anyways, Door County was fun. No snow though, which kind of sucked, but oh well! My eyes are FINALLY all better after some other random infection and more eye drops. But my eye doc and eye agreed that I should wear my glasses for a while just to give my eyes a break.

Hmmm, wow, could I be that boring?! I guess I am! ha! New 24 starts in four days!

Oh Jack Bauer...how I've missed you.
