oh no, valentine's day is coming!

Most of my day was quite dull. I woke up. That's always a good way to start the day. Then I got up and had a shower, during which my friend messaged my mobile asking if I wanted to go down the street for lunch and shopping. Shopping, on a Sunday. I wrote back, said I'd love too considering I'm still suffering form a severe case of boredom, brought on by chronic loneliness. I had toast and a cup of tea for breakfast. Two sugars and a bit of milk.

I tidied up my flat, for an inspection tomorrow. It is now rather spotless, for which I'm very proud of considering the number of cobwebs I knocked down outside and my phobia of all things that creep and crawl.

Then we went to Hungry Jacks for lunch. It was fairly nice I guess. We bought a CD for my friend (Bernard Fanning - Tea and Sympathy), went to Coles so I could buy some cheese, dropped a letter in the postbox at the Post Office, rented out The Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal from Video Ezy (we both love Jim Henson muppets). We watched them, then my DVD of Mallrats, and when all this finished it was already 8.30pm. So we talked for a bit longer, mainly about how Valentine's Day is, for us, the most depressing special day this year. Of course, all our friends (who have boyfriends/girlfriends) disagree. The only reason we find it so awful is that they all have this lovey dovey stuff planned, while me and my mate lament over the fact neither of us has had any boyfriend prospects in the last year or so. We just want hugs from a guy on V-Day, is that too much too ask?

Anyway, long story short, we decided to do lunch and a movie so we don't feel left out! But still, we agreed that if a guy came up for either of us, the other would understand and we could cancel. *Sigh* I'm a hopeless romantic
