Ah yes, that whole valentines thing. The day of the year on which all single people are supposed to feel bad.

Worse yet, it probably works on some level.

So, what are you doing to keep some semblance of sanity on this most cr*ppy of holidays? Are you barricading yourself away? Going out in desperation? Or are you just gonna open fire on a high street full of nauseating couples judging you for your apparent lack of a soul?

Me? Well, it's time for KILLATHON 2K12!!!

Yes, the yearly tradition in which I spend practically the entire hellish day indoors playing violent games of all kinds, going to the extent of tracking my virtual bodycount. Last year's high score was approx 9000 dead! Big thank you to the former citizens of megaton for helping so greatly in this objective! Let's hope for 10000 this year!

Seeing as how Valentines Day is a Tuesday, that means I'm going to be working, driving 40 mins to get home, make something to eat, get my stuff ready to drive 40 minutes to go to the MMA club to do some strength and conditioning training, followed by jiujitsu.

I'm thinking about upholding my tradition of playing Fallout on Valentine's Day; I might add Quake II to that as well. Unfortunately, being a Tuesday, I will have to go out on that day to college; I'm just going to be cynical and bitter for the night and come home to await the day afterwards. If I really get frustrated, I might try learning some ARM assembly language or something.

EDIT: Oh, yeah, almost forgot: I'm going to see if I can have my Historical Operating Systems on Version 7 Unix finished and posted by the 14th. I'll probably start it on Monday and make sure it's mostly complete before the Tuesday.
I have no idea what you just said, but I'm pretty sure it's awesome.

And I just got real lucky that I don't have any lectures on tuesday. Sure, technically I should be doing some kind of work...but it's one gorram day on which I'd probably be too angry/depressed to do anything anyway.

I honestly never even remember which day is supposed to be Valentine's day most of the time. I see some stuff for it for a while, then one day it's gone. I don't really care at all, and never understood why someone would.
Oh, you always know in the UK, due to A fine tradition of shoving it down your throat.

I actually prefer Valentines Day when I'm single. I'm in a relationship now and, like last year, we're trying to figure out dinner plans and whatnot and you have to put money aside for presents etc... When I was single I just went out with my friends and enjoyed being a singleton.

I have the first half of my epic day planned:

Get up
Shower
Shave
Go to a job interview
Maybe buy a sandwich

That's all I got so far but I want to call this super special day... Tuesday.

The same thing I do every night, Pinkie. Try to take over the world!


In all seriousness, I'll probably just be playing video games with my friends listening to them whine about how much they hate Valentine's Day. I'd probably foget which day it was even on if it weren't for them, not sure if that's a good thing or not...

Hmm... tests!

Pretty much the same thing I do everyday. It's my choice to be single so Valentines day does make me morose in any way. Anyways, i'll be working all day so....

Probably Total War, practicing Tae Kwon Do forms, and crying into the bacon and eggs I'll cook for dinner, then crying myself to sleep. Good times!
