What It's All About

Yesterday i went out with three friends for dinner to a romantic Spanish restaurant. All around us were tables filled with couples (i think besides our table there was only one other table not taken up by a couple). Our conversation, like the delicious sangria we were drinking, was flowing easily. Looking around at the serious faces of the couples (half of who weren't even looking at each other, not to mention talking to one another) i couldn't help feeling that i was getting the better deal here.
This post is not to say i hate Valentine's day ( i might even catch the History Channel's Valentine's special tonight). It just to say it's better energy spent to tell people who you love how you feel than to bitch and moan or to go into a spastic Valentine's tizzy. Besides, as Dead Serious points out, if you don't want to celebrate St. Valentine's Day you can always be happy withNational Ferris Wheel Day.
P.S. I actually wore a semi-red outfit today. Ok, it was burgundy cardigan but it's better than an all black get up.

Update: My inner English geek is enjoying this valentine's day cartoon. She says it like it's a bad thing!
