My relationship couldn't be better. Honestly. Sharing my life with this guy for another 50 years or so, God-or-whoever willing, seems like a treat, not a chore. And you know what? I still think Valentine's Day is pretty stupid, just like I did when I was an embittered, celibate teenager. Sure, it's cute the first time you're not single on that day, so you get to see what the fuss is about. But otherwise, I'll take an anniversary any time, thanks. If you were single yesterday, I hope you didn't feel bad. If you were coupled, I hope you didn't feel too obligated.

So we spent V-Day at a friend's house eating Chinese food, drinking homebrew, listening to Miles Davis, and bitching about the government (and the idiots wrapping their houses in plastic). That couldn't have been better, either :)
