i was talking to someone about valentine's day last year and i mentioned that last year was the first and only time i had a girlfriend during the most romantic of the hallmark holidays. then it occurred to me last night in bed that the statement wasn't true. in high school, i had a girlfriend senior year for v-day. i believe i taped a rose to the whiteboard before every class she was in with a note for her. i have no idea why i didn't remember this until now, besides the fact that i broke up with her the next week (dumped is such a mean word, its not like i put her in a trash can) or that she turned out to be psycho. but i seriously believed for the last few years that such a thing never happened. my memories are too weird and spotty. what else have i forgotten or repressed?
i do like valentines day though- its the only day of the year you can be super cheesy romantic and have an excuse for it, so that you're still gruff and uncaring the rest of the time. plus i like making people i care about smile. but don't tell anyone- its a secret.
