The Good:
*February 7th is one week away from Valentine's Day. This is only good because it keeps me informed. Whenever I was in a relationship, I knew I had one week to go. And working at a flower shop, Vday means only one thing: HOURS! Not to be a sad story, but we have been really slow since the economy fell through. And I am only a delivery driver, so I only work when there are orders to be delivered. There have honestly been weeks where I have gotten like three hours on a paycheck. But Cupid's holiday never fails to deliver the goods.
*2/14/10 will be special for a couple of reasons.
1) The Saints won the Superbowl. Now, if you know me you know that the Denver Broncos are my team, but New Orleans is my roommate's/best friend's team. And I pretty much fed off of his excitement so it was great to see him celebrate and celebrate with him when they picked off Manning to pretty much seal the deal. My sister joked around and said that I should buy him the stuff that says "New Orleans 2010 Champions" for Valentine's Day.
2) I already declared that I watch wrestling, but to go even further I am as big a fan as some are for baseball. As in, knowing every stat and ridiculous information that people shouldn't know. Well, I get this info because of a website I go to. That website said they needed new columnists and I needed to get some practice in before graduation so I sent a sample in and they posted it and gave me a spot. I now have to post a column every week. I would put up a link, but I'm pretty sure none of you want to read about it. But still, it's pretty cool.
The Bad:
*Valentine's Day is a week away. Fuck.
*My ex-girlfriend's birthday is today. There was a time when I was seriously considering shooting her a text or something, but I thought against it. I've talked to a few people within the blogosphere and my IRL friends know the story, but man it's so hectic. But when you are with someone for so long (nearly 4 years altogether), dates like that start to get stuck in your head. That's why, even though I heard nothing from her, I still think she thought me when I turned 23 back in December.
The Beautiful:
*Another one of my friend's had a birthday today, but it is a whole different story. I usually talk of my friend Shedrick on here, who we lost in November of 2005. But I'm not sure if I have mentioned Cynthia, who we lost in April of 2006. But I don't want to end this on a sad note, I want to have it end on a happy note. Especially since today was her birthday, so that makes me think of good times.
Good times like this:
Random lyric of the day:
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I'm be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue
