Happy Valentine's Day.

So, it hailed tonight/this morning. And like a giddy little girl I ran outside on our back porch every time I heard it kick up. On my face was plastered what I like to hope is a very cute little grin. I took my hat outside to catch hail. A lot of it bounced out but I couldn't stop grinning. Then it would start to hail a whole lot harder and I'd run back inside or under cover. I made a few hail-men, so not as much fun as snow-men, but easier.

Here on the west coast I've been 24 for two whole hours now. My mom gave me Valentino here so soft and so cute.



Lunch with my dad later today, an annual tradition, usually it's a dinner, but we bumped it up a bit. No other plans, heck I don't even know if there's going to be a cake *shrug* I suppose that's how it goes. I just want to feel special for crying out loud...you know what I mean?



At the moment I'm quite content, surprisingly. I don't really despise Valentine's day, I just wish I had someone special in general. Sure it could be viewed as just some stupid day that was thought up to sell more junk. But even though I'm not too thrilled with the day, it's just a special day to show that someone special that you're thinking about them even more. Or a day to chase down that someone you've been stalking and say, "hey, be mine!" just kidding of course, I don't condone stalking... I dunno, I believe as Luisa does that you should say it every day, that you don't need Valentine's day for that, but at the same time, it's a special day, show it some more. Show it with everything you've got. I don't need a lot. I'm not in need of fancy jewelry, I'm simple. I just want love. I want to see it, feel it, have it, give it. Don't get me wrong, jewelry is pretty, I love my simple little diamond earrings my mom gave me and on occasion wear a necklace. But those stupid adds for jewelry 'show her with this' kind of crap. You don't need jewelry to show someone you love them. To me, that's not what it takes. Cute little stuffed animals are great too, but a cute guy to cuddle up to is tons better!

Ah, I guess that's all for now.

"Pretend you love me for an hour/to end the worst of all my days/nurse my wounds and ease my crying..."

"However far away, I will always love you/However long I stay, I will always love you/Whatever words I say, I will always love you/I will always love you"

"I need love, love's divine/please forgive me now I see that I've been blind/give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name"

"Faint light of dawn/I'm listening to you breathing in and out/Needing nothing/You're honey dipped/You are beautiful, floating clouds, soft world..."

And I could so go on...and might...some other time...*sigh*
