Sitting at home. Reading articles on the internet. Reading a book on the history of the united states by Hugh Brogan (which is a really good book by the way). Drinking diet coke, eating plain white bread, and desperately wishing for my university department to suddenly cease to exist due to a temporal anomaly in the space time continuum so that I do not have to go back and do lab work.
Let me tell you something about lab work. It's not fun. Being a scientist is actually not fun at all. It's rewarding, it's not back-breaking, and it pays reasonably well, but it is not fun. Mixing reagents is not fun. Carting around lab materials is not fun. Filling in order forms is not fun. Tediously waiting for ethanol to evaporate from a tube is not fun. Sitting in on lab meetings is definitely not fun.
And it is doubly not fun on valentines day. Last year I had to work on valentines day. There's nothing more frustrating than walking to another dreary day in the lab, passing about 10 art-degree couples passionately kissing on the lawn of the great court. It's hard to maintain a positive image of valentines day when it seems that everyone else is having fun BUT YOU.
Ah well. At least I get to play around with dangerous acids and chloroform. I meant work with dangerous acids and chloroform.

I'm single so I won't be with a loved one. I watched the Rugby for a while and played Bioshock 2 online multiplayer. Just finished playing some local Fifa 09 multiplayer with a friend and I'm going to eat later. Then I'll probably watch an ultra-violent film.
The Valentines Day Checklist (for when I'm single):
-Violent Games (check-Bioshock 2)
-Sports (check- Rugby Six Nations, Fifa 09)
-Food (check- packs of chips, gonna eat mexican later)
-Violent Films (later check- maybe Sin City)
-Good TV Shows (Might watch an episode of Crusoe later)
-***** about Valentines Day (check,check,check,check)

I'm actually going to see my best friend in Escondido and try to forget that this day exists.
So, basically what I'm saying is YOU'RE NOT HELPING.

Me and my girlfriend celebrated Valentines day yesterday. She has to work today, I don't see the big deal, it's only a day.
Just another day doing activities that actualy mean something.Activities like making stupid bets with my bro on WoW,fight with little kids on Xbox Live(thats always fun!),raping some people on MW2,killing n00bs on halo 3,and going on the escapist and youtube!
getting pissed and hitting on desperate gals, oh the shame.
My dad also told me today not to worry if a girls in a relationship, as long as they're not married they're fair game.
lol... er, thanks dad.
I also watched my college rugby match and then 6 nations, as per the 6 nations drinking game rules, if italy HAD won one must drink all alcohol in sight. I was drinking enough considering every time there are more than 4 consecutive kicks then it's finish your drink. :s
