Valentine's Day

So I'm sorry to say that I'm the Grinch of Valentine's Day. Don't get me wrong. I love the fact that people have someone to celebrate the holiday with. Though I really wouldn't call it a holiday. But I hate the fact that it is so damn prominent. I mean seriously. I was listening to the radio at work and it seemed like every other song was a damn love song. I mean seriously people. Valentine's Day is so damn overrated. It's one more day that you get to spend too much money to prove to your significant other that you love them. You know let alone buying them birthday, christmas AND anniversary gifts. But still.... you have to let them know!

Now I'm not a complete grump that I can't appreciate a few things. I will get my daughter something because it makes her feel special... and when she gets old enough to understand and she gets me something.... well I won't lie, I will probably cry.

I also understand the importance of it if you are a new couple and what not.

But do we have to make half of the month of Febuary about love! Grrrrr....... it just makes me crazy! Whats so special about being in love???!!! I love my family and I love my friends. But right now I don't want to be IN love. It hurts way too much and its way too damn complicated. I have enough complications in my life without adding a man to it.

Anyways.... To all my family. I do hope you have a good Valentine's Day. Sees-tor I love you more than words and call me whenever you need to talk. I don't care if it costs me. Dad and Kim thank you and I love you for everything you've done for me. And Uncle Dave, thank you for being my Great Dave and talking to me. I love you all.
