Weekend Wonders with a V-Day Blip

Happy Belated Valentine's Day ALL!!
I meant to get a little something on here yesterday - but I worked at both Seminar Crowds and Econo yesterday and didn't really have time to do anything but....work.

I had THE best weekend this last weekend! I wish that I could replay it all right here for ya'll but that would take WAY too long. Basically...I went out to dinner with Jeremy and April on Friday night and we had a fun time just eating some pizza and talking...and then April and I hit up the bars for a solo gig...I was her babysitter for the most part but HEY, after party rocked rocks! :D
Then on Saturday April and I went on a double date with Jeremy and one of his friends, Matt...who I met the weekend before (really funny and obnoxious guy)
We went to this new steak house in Ottumwa and then hit up some Ottumwa bars...April and I got completely trashed - like BAD - we both ended up losing our yummy steak dinners but it was all worth it really!
I know this is kind of petty to mention - but April nor I spent a cent that night -- the wonders of being a single woman!!!
So we had a total blast at the bars in Ottumwa and then also the bar in Batavia! - it got a little foggy toward the end, but I made it through to talk about today!!

April swears that she isn't going to do that again for awhile (drinking heavily that is) but I am already working on Jeremy finding another friend to double date with -- Matt didn't exactly work out for April, although he was really sweet that night.

So now - I most devote a little time to talking about yesterday - being that it was Valentine's Day and I am single...

I was actually a little terrified of the approaching day...I mean, it's a day for couples, right? And so I was scared that I was going to spend the day reminiscing or being depressed...
Honestly - there was a little bit of the day wasted on that..but for the most heart I was light hearted about the whole thing and I celebrated love all day long!....I figured, eventually, that it was silly to waste an entire day being sad about the love that I experienced in the past...it seemed a much better idea to celebrate the love that I have in my life now and the love that I will have in the future...
Valentine's day is, afterall, just a commercialized day that is a big money maker for candy makers and florists...there isn't much sense to it if we can't look past all of that and really dig into what it 'means'...

I hope to make everyday from now on a mini-valentine's day...because it's about time that I get positive about love and love relationships...because there is so much to be positive about!
HEY MEN! Come and get it!

I'm 21....smart, attractive, motivated, funny, caring, understanding, a good listener...i've got that whole mind/body thing going (as Chris would say)...and I'm SINGLE!! How much better can it get?!
