- Ah, yes. Valentines Day. I hate it.
- I guess it would be much more fun if I had an SO.
- Then I could participate in all the sickening rituals.
- But.
- My friend Emily is going to have a party. For singles only.
- We are going to get drunk and be depressed together.
- And we are going to burn paper hearts.
-
- Two years ago my friend Troy and I threw a
- St. Valentines Day Massacre party.
- We had people dressed up as gangsters and flappers, fake
- bodies strewn about, a coffin, fake tommy guns (we made them
- out of wood), blood splatters on the walls, etc. One of the
- best parties we've ever thrown.
- We were too lazy to do anything like that this year.
- Oh well.

- hmmm, don't know why I'm posting this.
