You haven't truly experienced Valentines Day until you've worked an office job. It is a sorting of the women into two groups: Those who get flowers... and those who get pathetic looks from the girls who get flowers.
I would fall into the latter.
And I wouldn't mind so much if my office wasn't the first one in the building, always with the door open to welcome potential visitors. It was a parade of lilies, roses, and tulips all day long past my usually-cheery office door.
It really makes a girl hate flowers. And I swear to God if I get one more pathetic look this direction by one of the flower-receivers, I WILL go dump their boquets in the toilet and flush it as many times as it takes for them to go down the ancient plumbing in this building.

I bought myself flowers yesterday. Then my roommate and I cooked a lovely spinach and salmon dinner followed closely with brownies and coffee ice cream.
It was the best V Day ever, next to actually being loved by someone.
Flowers are overrated anyway. Often, the love behind the flowers dies as quickly as the petals themselves. And TRUST ME when I say that there is NO NEED to be jealous of those who received them - ahem ahem.
