a pyschic and valentine's day thoughts

so, last week i was in chattanooga, tennessee and there was a psychic office that i passed. i found this place very hilarious. so i was there a few days before valentine's day. i guess an employee, perhaps the psychic herself, was putting valentine's baskets outside for sale. i laughed so hard. i tried to take a picture, but i was driving, so it didn't turn out too clear. i mean, lets think about this... you go in hear your psychic prediction... hmm. you are going to meet the love of your life... or maybe even a chance that you've already met him/her... while your at it, by a valentine's day basket for him/her. i gotta hand it to them, great marketing/advertising mechanism.

speaking of valentine's day... i have become pretty immune to it, mainly because i haven't had a valentine in like oh 8 years. the last time i had one he broke up with me on valentine's day (the nerve, haha). i think when i do have a boyfriend, it will be kind of strange to celebrate the holiday - but i won't complain. i enjoy spending time with my friends, hanging out with family, or doing what i do on any other day. i'm not really sure why we have to have a holiday that celebrates couples... i mean don't couples celebrate each other on anniversaries? as a single person, i'm pretty sure this holiday is attempt to make sure everyone who is single is aware of it. my friends and i send each other valentine's cards, but on the inside we put happy single's awareness day. we have a good attitude about it. one day, god willing, i'll have a valentine, and maybe i'll get a special night on valentine's but until then i'll continue thinking this holiday is dumb... but don't worry hallmark - i buy into every holiday - i even send cards for st. patrick's day, haha. no matter how ridiculous or stupid i think the holiday is, i'll look for any excuse to send a card to my friends.

alright, tonight i'm trying something new, i'm going to bed somewhat early. early for me is around 11-12, normally it is at least 1am. goodnite!
