I was a bit hesitant on pressing the publish button on this entry.

But WTH, it’s my website. Right?

This entry is raining on everything about Valentines Day. So I warn you now, if you want to continue reading!

I feel like everyone’s rushing around trying to get something, anything, for your special someone for Valentines Day. I’m actually sorta glad that we don’t really ‘celebrate’ it to be honest. You all know that Valentines Day is coming up, it’s the exact same date each year. Yet everyone scrambles to get just “something” for their special someone.

I’d rather the little surprises here and there.

For example. My boyfriend got back from an Ottawa business trip last weekend, and he surprised me with a gift. He could have saved that for Valentines Day, but again: We’re not that type of couple. I’d rather not have a one day, busy restaurant night to celebrate our love. Do you seriously want to know what our Valentine’s Day tradition is? GOING TO McDONALD’S. No, I am not kidding. Our love for McDonald’s is something we both enjoy, and it’s cheap. We’ve been doing it for 4 years now, and it’s delicious. I am looking forward to this Saturday! The  fast food joint usually isn’t that crowded, especially because it’s “VDAY!OMG!” Plus, we’re served within seconds, and eating within minutes. This isn’t for everybody however, I’m not trying to be negative about it either. I don’t mind seeing everyone lovey–dovey for Valentines Day. I may enjoy receiving a card/chocolate. But I don’t go out of my way if I don’t have anything, and I certainly don’t scramble for an expensive (or inexpensive) gift for my boyfriend. We have a Family Day holiday this weekend, so that’s pretty sweet too. Then the week after that is PANCAKE NIGHT. Tasties. Who doesn’t love eating pancakes for supper!?

Maybe I’ve burst a bubble or two, from my readers. But that’s just how I roll. Other than that, does anyone have any plans for Valentines Day? :) Dish it.

So, it’s Sunday and I’m literally bored to tears. I’ve watched too much TV yesterday (TLC’s What Not To Wear = love) and Sunday’s are supposed to be laid back and lazy. I’ve been doing some thinking and, my birthday isn’t for a few months yet, but I like making wish–lists. ‘Cause I mean … my parents annnnd boyfriend read this site from time to time. Sooo: hint hint. Carry on.

1. Before I ever had a CD player, I bought CDs in hope that I’d get a CD player for Christmas or even as a birthday present. Eventually I got one.
2. I also would like a flickr pro account, but unfortunately for miss cheap arse, I don’t want to fork over the $24 a year for it. Eventually I’d like to do a flickr 365 (take 1 photo daily, for 1 year).
3. Gift cards to restaurants and grocery stores are always a hit with me. Everyone loves food.
4. New shin pads for soccer. I don’t really need them, but they’ve been around since 1994 and they look disgusting.
5. A circle pendant. While Boyfriend was in NYC with his parents, he picked me up one. But it broke. I wanna new one :)

Perhaps I will add more to this list, later. That’s pretty much my top priority picks right there.
