wow, am i down. like, really, really down. maybe it's the work stress catching up with me, i dunno. but i just want to crawl into bed and not come out for a few days.

it hit me today that valentine's day is in a couple of weeks, and i have nothing to do. and for some reason, it hit me really hard. i've had plenty of valentine's days where i wasn't dating anyone, and it was never a big whoop. but this time it's completely bummed me out. the funny thing is, i'm not exactly on a manhunt at the moment... god knows i don't have the time right now to commit to someone who'd deserve it... so i'm not sure why i'd be casual about starting a relationship, and yet sad that i'm not in one.

even funnier in all this is that i've recently rejected some seemingly really nice guys on yahoo. just today, i got a message from a guy who lives near me... attractive, owns his own business, loved my profile and was really interested in meeting. my reply? something along the lines of "thanks, but i noticed in your profile that you're looking for a woman who's slender... and i have a big ass, so we wouldn't be a good match, best of luck". completely shot him down before he met me... or, i guess, shot him down before he could shoot me down after seeing the aforementioned big ass.

*sigh*. i have no right to feel unloved, when i'm not allowing anyone the chance to love me. what the hell is my deal? i'm just going to head to bed, and hope that when i get up in the morning i'm in a cheerier mood. and that maybe i'll forget about valentine's day until it's over.

Valentine's Day is right up there with Christmas on the potential-crappiness scale. I don't remember any good ones. Probably mostly timing, but it's also the crazy expectations. Fuckin' A, they don't help much.

Friends of mine did attend some sort of "tell us the story of your worst date ever" anti-Valentine's-Day event last year and have a fabulous time, I am told.

totally agreed. the thing is, i LOVE holidays, no matter how overblown and commercial they are, and never get depressed over them. it's always a big time of joy for me. but for some reason i'm just feeling like crap over this one.

i love the idea of the worst date thing. that absolutely rocks. :)

P.S. I don't mean to imply Christmas is always crappy, I have lots of good Christmas memories, I'm just thinking of how many people get depressed over that holiday too.

hey, i wouldn't mind that literally! hee!

that sounds like a great idea... maybe a spa mani and pedi, and takeout sushi from the place near me. sounds like a great way to spend an evening. and i expect a full report on your, ahem, goings-on... so i can live vicariously through you!!!
