Valentine's Day

I was looking forward to Valentine's Day for the last couple of weeks...and when it finally came around...it was a disappointment. Not only was the weather sucky, but I was all alone (except for my family) and I only got to speak to Jake over the phone. Now, I know some of you are going to say that you were worse off than me because your boyfriends are farther away than Jake is from me, but yesterday, honestly, it felt like we were miles apart. And, what was even worse was that I -knew- it wasn't that far to his house, yet I couldn't go there, and he couldn't come to me. It was very depressing. But, I'm over it...Valentine's Day -is- overrated. It's just a "holiday" that was created by the card companies, and I think it's only purpose is to remind those who are single of the fact that they are single, and I don't really think that it has any other value to those who are in a relationship, other than giving them an excuse to get dressed up and go out for dinner or whatever. I didn't really have any big plans for yesterday, but I still would have been nice to have even a "normal" day...compared to being stuck at home.

Anyways. There were some good things that came out of my being stranded at home with my family. My mom and I watched "The Devil Wears Prada" (it was my second time watching it, but I caught more details and some things made a little more sense the second time around). It's not a horrible movie, but it's not one of my favorites.
