Valentines Day.
This is my least favorite day. Mostly because of Facebook.
This is the day we single ladies get to watch all the happy happy couples ring in Valentines Day with the ones they love.
We get to see all of them talk about what they got or what they did or how romantic their loved one is...
oh yay.

"Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it... is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossoms had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two."
