Yesterday was a Pretty Damn Good Day

     Despite the fact that yesterday was Valentine's day and I am usually cynical towards said hallmark day for numerous reasons, I had a pretty fantastic day yesterday. I started it off with volunteering at school where we made various gifts of appreciation for departments and facilities around campus such as families in the hospitals near and on campus that have very sick children with serious illnesses such as cancer. We also made posters for the departments showing appreciation for being there. We made tissue flowers for veterans and helped restock the food pantry on campus. I thought, "why not spread the love to other people?"

Pizza asking me out.

     All week I was waiting for Saturday. Not because it was Valentine's Day, but because that was the day I was going to allow myself to buy a pizza and it was magical. I told the pizza place to write "Will you be my girlfriend?" inside the box to make it appear as if pizza was asking me out. (  I said yes by the way! ;) ) Then, randomly throughout the day I would put dancing music on and dance around my house. Think like, early 2000s rap/hip-hop. I probably danced around my apartment for a solid 3 hours and I felt so free and happy and in a fantastic mood. I have this disco ball lamp doodad that I plugged in and it was like I was having my own little party for one. I also meditated on acceptance and that was pretty great. I lit a good luck incense and I think it has some drugs in it cos I felt all sorts of loop after that. Then I danced the loopiness out of myself.
     This Valentine's Day, I didn't let the fact that I was "single & alone" keep me from showing love to myself and to the universe. I think that is what is important: to show love to yourself and if others choose to join you, then heck yah bring on the chocolate (if that's your thing.) If you had someone special, I give you two thumbs up!!! My someone special happened to be a something and that something was pizza.  How did you all spend your Valentine's Day?
