The other main reason why Valentines Day isn't the funnest is when you have to work (read: get called in early especially because the other girl working is conveniently 'sick'). Now, working on Valentines Day isn't always that bad, but when you work at The Body Shop, it can be just plain disturbing. I lost count of the number of times that I got asked for massage oil yesterday! Like seriously... that’s nice for you and your husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/lover/mistress/secretary, but I don't really want to know about it. I'm particularly disturbed by the lady who came looking for massage oil for her husband with her 5 kids! I feel a little sorry for those kids, who might have felt a little neglected last night - either put to bed a little too early, or propped up to watch Shrek or toy story for the 100th time... *shudder*
I heard a lady from Cosmo say on the radio that their office saying is that "Valentines day is for losers, until you get the flowers". Fair enough saying, could work for cards/random other gifts too, not just flowers. I do feel a little loved from my 2 valentines that I got, but still feeling a little bit of a loser, as they were both from female friends trying to pull my leg and invent an mysterious secret admirer, with way too good a taste for almost any male!
Thanks to Emma and Sal for my frame, and Sonia and Katrina for the weird card. I think my dad keeps getting excited that there might be a boy on the horizon for me as he brings little packages and envelopes up for me, and its a little hard to keep on having to explain that its a joke from friends, I don't think he gets it... poor thing.
