I pointed out to someone that Valentine's Day comes from the festival of Lupercalia, which involved naked men marching down the streets of Rome and raping every woman in their way. She didn't believe me when I brought up the part about werewolves, so I told her to look it up. Apparently I've 'ruined the holiday' for her now.
So yeah, day turned out pretty good.

Woke up, realised what day it was, slept till 3pm (I'm the only one in my group of friends with no GF/BF) got VERY bored and let out some frustration on some necromorphs.
Avoided a driving lesson, played Mass Effect, went to a friends place to get the entire Love Hina manga, work, got home, saw that Mass Effect had somehow reset after I had played for like 7 hours, swore for like 3 hours, started a 'new career', swore some more, went to bed.
If you're talking romantic stuff that happened; I waved at a girl I like. She waved back. Oh yeah! I'm awesome!

Fucked around on campus because its the first day of Rag week, got some pieces for my Axl Rose costume for 60's and 80's night in the local nightclub, talked with a friend about getting hold of some weed for a house party tonight, then went home and made restaurant quality burgers for my girlfriend and myself. Oh, and brought her hot chocolate. I tried to get some studying done during all this, but that didn't work out.
Thats heavy, man, even by the standards of this thread, which by its nature should be full of sob stories. I'm sorry to hear it.stl520nlv said:
Let's see... I started the day by not going to bed the night before until 7:00 on the morning of Valentine's day. This led to me sleeping through my morning class, going to my evening class, and coming home. I shot my new airsoft pistol for a little while, before going out to dinner with one of my roommates. After this, I went back to the apartment and sat on the computer for the rest of the night.
For future reference, if anyone is in need of a restaurant meal on V-day, and they don't have a date, just a need for food, sports bars may be a good choice. I went to Beef o' Brady's, and the place was practically empty.
Edit: I say morning class, but it's a 2:00 PM class. I didn't crawl out of bed until 4:22 PM, because I managed to fall back asleep after turning the alarm clock off with the intention of getting out of bed. I intend to move it to the far end of the room before going to sleep this morning, so I don't do that again.

Got up at 7 after 6 hours of terrible sleep, then spent all day moving furniture. Didnt stop till 7 at night, then I got ready for work 8-12. I didnt even know it was Valentines day until some guy at work told me. Honestly, the most romantic thing to happen to me today is someone grabbing my ass.
So all in all, Tiring.

My V-Day got off to a flying start when, at 1:23 in the morning I was listening to AC/DC's "For Those About To Rock"...and my phone rang. 'Twas my friend Kat (aka "my favorite girl"...she's not my girlfriend but we're quite close). This after I'd posted a Facebook item about how V-Day makes me want to throw a grenade into a crowd and how I can't hear the words "St. Valentine's Day" without immediately appending the word "massacre" to it.
Mind you, if the day had just kindly ended at 4:30 when I got off the phone, all would have been well...but NOOOOO. I had to go to bed, get up at 1:30 in the afternoon, and go to class, where it seemed like everyone and their sister was making a big deal out of being all lovey-dovey. Fuck that noise.
Thankfully another female came to the rescue...my friend and occasional dinner and movie companion Jess (as in I'm the guy she calls when she wants to go somewhere but doesn't want to go alone, sort of a rent-a-boyfriend for her) shoots the shit with me and talks about how she liked my comment about the grenade in a crowd because that's about how she felt being alone on V-Day (why not take me somewhere? Because I had class from 4 to 9, that's why.)
So yeah. Two different girls cheered me up on what was otherwise a very angry, annoyed day.
