valentine's day

i spent all day thinking about eating rocky road ice cream and watching “when harry met sally,” and then i actually did those two things (after studying for the midterm i have tomorrow).

in other news, my ice cream was awesome, and so was the movie. i tried to write a little bit, but it just turned into a psuedo-blog entry, so i gave up and just decided to go with it. i kept telling people that my plans for valentine's day included being by myself in the apartment (the roommates were either working or singing or having sex with their significant others in santa monica), studying, watching the best movie in the universe, and gorging myself on chocolate ice cream and baked lays. lots of people thought that that sounded pathetic and sad, which in turn made me sad for them. because they obviously don't understand the tremendous joy that can come from the abovementioned things all practiced in unison. i actually had a pretty great time just now. i haven't been by myself, just hanging out, for a really long time. i drank jasmine tea and flipped through social psychology notecards, and listened to the wind, and continued eating through someone else's loaf of whole grain wheat bread. basically, i think i'm finally ok with being with me, which, so i've heard, is the first step to having a normal relationship with someone else. we shall see. the jury's still out on the normalcy.

i think now it's time to shower and prepare for the last day of the busiest week i've had in a while.
