Valentine's Day? Hmmm... I've honestly never been a fan of this day. It could be that I've never had a "valentine" until Aaron and I started dating. It could be that no matter how hard I try to pretend that Red and Pink don't clash... it still makes me want to hurl. Or it could also be that I find the GIANT ASS stuffed animals and chocolates to be sort of cliche. It could be any of those... or the added fact that I STINK at gift giving to a guy. More specifically, Aaron.
I must admit, I do like getting flowers. Which, I suppose, is also a cliche part of today. Aaron got me lovely spring time colored gurber daisies last Friday just because. Also, this morning I walked into the office to find single white roses on mine and Barb's desk from our maintenance men. I like the thought of being thought of. Or the thought of being important/loved enough to be thought of. Hmmm... maybe I like Valentine's Day a little bit after-all. But shouldn't this not be the only day to do nice things?
Grammys. One GIANT dissapointment on the award winners. Who the hell is Esparanza Whoever?! And why in the world did Arcade Fire win over Katy Perry?! (this could just be because I'm obsessed with her). The performances, however, were superb! Mumford and Sons, KP, Miranda Lambert, Lady A, B.O.B and Bruno, Eminem/Rhiahna/Dre... AH! There were just countless wonderful sounds to my ears.
It's onlt 10:40 and im starving out of my mind!!
6pm! HURRY!
Valentine's Day began with a not so happy history, yet has turned into one on the most cliched holidays (that we don't get off for) ever. The reasons are never ending, yet people continually do the same things over and over again. But hey, be glad you aren't celebrating Singles Awareness Day! Anyway, don't hate on Arcade Fire, one of the only likable alternative bands left. I still and will never understand Lady Gaga, and all of her attempts to be a great singer/performer (I just wish that she stops, her new song sounds like she just made it to be on Glee, which I also cannot stand). Interesting show all in all, not as good as the VMA's from last year.
