I will survive
First I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side…
Ok, so with out wishing to sound like a bitter single person (even tho I am), I just thought I would share with you all the fact that I hate valentines day! People going around all loved up, paying silly prices for roses, chocolates, cards and meals, honeslty-its enough to make you vomit. No doupt the TV will be full of it as well, the only films on tv tonight will be ‘Rom-Com’s’ (which are just rubbish, its never like that in real life), the ‘and finally’ Joke story at the end of BBC local news will be valentines related as well! Rubbing it in my face. I might just go to sleep all day-wake me up when its tomorrow.
I agree Pete… I don’t really like Valentine’s day… mostly for the following reason:
Carolyn and I have the same discussion every year: that valentine’s day is a commercial nonsensical holiday. We agree to buy each other a card… but NO present.
Every year, the night before Valentine’s Day (ergo last night)… Carolyn starts giggling… “I’ve been naughty and bought you a present” she giggles.
On the one hand I feel bad because I have only bought her a card (a mighty fine card tho), but on the other I am quite pleased.. cos she bought me the Juno soundtrack. Awesome.
I know what you are thinking… if she does it every year, why don’t I see it coming and by a present too?
Simple… this way I get a present and also get to be eversoslightly indignant about it.
Excellent
I don’t like this double line breaks!
I hate Valentines Day too, and agree that it is commercial rubbish. Andy & I exchanged cards and presents last year, but I think, somehow, it was because my mum guilt-tripped me into it. I told her that we didn’t need a special day to show or tell each other we love each other, but she didn’t buy it. Anyway, this year (as every other year apart from the random 2007) we are not doing cards or presents or dinner. I hope.
Jonny - you do know that I read this blog!
Buy the way - I’m still waiting for the delivery guy to bring those flowers to work Jonny. He hasn’t come yet!
That stupid delivery man. He forgets to deliver them every year!
Ah well
I bought myself some love heart sweets.! I hate it too, for the same reasons as Pete, Im a bitter singleton, who is workin tonight at the restaurant and is going to vomit all over the first couple to kiss each other. Fun game ey!
Me and my mum went to Chester Zoo on Tuesday and we saw this ginger couple, he’d obviously brought her to the Zoo for valentines day as he’d made her tie a valentines balloon around her wrist, my mum laughed so loudly.! I didnt as they were ginger and I dont laugh at fellow gingers.
Haha..
I love it that there is a special bond between gingers - just like with slaves, lepers and siamese twins.
(I am allowed to say that - should it be conjoined twins? Also… I don’t condone slavery)
Your just Jealous gorilla boy coz you’ll never know the true stength and pride of a ginger!
You have it with motorcyclists as well…They all nod at you/each other when they go past
Yeah we do that, its a lovely thing to be involved in. Bus drivers do it too. But no one nods at the ginger bus driver which is odd.
Im sorry if this message seems odd Ive just got in from work, valentines day at the restaurant, luckily no one kissed in my prescence, so all was well.
So glad the strain of Valentines is over, aaaah its Friday!
Do you think Pete was serious about sleeping through Valentine’s Day? He seems to have gone a bit quiet. Should someone ring him and wake him up now it’s Friday?
I am awake, but thank you for your concern. Actually, valentines day turned out ok for me- two of my female house mates are also single, so they offered to cook for me, and we had a singles night in-t’was rather nice to have diner with 2 good looking girls!
Also, exciting news! I just found out my timetable for the next 8 weeks, and then rearranged my first driving lesson for as soon as I could-it is now this Tuesday!!! I can’t wait, I am all excited like a kid before christmas!
haha.. you smoothie..
[pete to single girl]
“oh… I hate valentine’s day. I’m so alone… and so are you… and we’ve got all this food in the kitchen… too much food for me to eat on my own…”
[girl to pete]
“well… shucks… why not have a valentine’s meal together..?”
[pete to girl]
“ok… can you bring a friend to?”
haha. Legend that is Pete Smith!
Yes, thats exactly how it was
Just a quick message to the Hoylanders (there can be only one. Rubbish, sorry.), Chanel no 5 are showing a Neighbours omnibus this afternoon, which means that if you miss an episode you can catch up at the weekend! BBC never did that, I’m starting to warm to Neighbours on 5.
They also show neighbours about 5 times a day if you include the digital channels, I watched it at 8.00pm the other day!
Its brilliant. We’re never gonna miss an episode ever again.
haha
The public really are fickle aren’t they…
Also… just saw Cloverfield. Go see it… it’s a masterpiece for the genre. Also… did anyone check out the JT Taylor group. What’s with that freaky id card picture?
Jonny, are you JT Taylor?
Haha… if I was JT Taylor it would be shameless self promotion (let alone quite a big lie!). So in answer to your question… nope… I’m glad to say, cos I wouldn’t fancy writing a book for everyone to see and for them to comment on!
You really are JT Taylor and you wrote that first chapter as part of the course you took called “How to be a successfull published writer”.
Did they guarantee your money back if you don’t get published?
Also - the writer’s strike is over now so can’t JT go back to writing Eldorado?
I’d be so peeved if it turned out he was the writer for Eldorado or Corrie! hehe
I was dreading the possibility that it would just be a hoax and a story wouldn’t be posted yesterday - just a note saying “haha suckers”
