Happy Valentine's Day...Can I go back to bed now?
I hardly know where to begin.
For starters, I'd really like to go back to bed. I'm a bit bleary eyed because I graded 35 papers last night and was up until 2am doing it. BLECH.
Then of course it's good old V-day. Many of you have heard my diatribe before, but here it goes.
If you don't have anyone, V-day sucks because it's a reminder you're alone.
If you are in a new relationship, V-day sucks because there's gift anxiety - how big, how small, will he/she like it, what does the gift say about where I want the relationship to go?
If you are in a comfortable long term relationship, why should V-day be different than any other day, just because Hallmark wants to make a mint?
That said, I love my sweetie and I'm SO glad he's my Valentine and will be forever. Wanna take a nap now honey?
