Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

Hahaha I agree with what u said originally tho Torri

Forcing myself to do something special just emphasizes the fact that I don't have a date. So I just try to ignore the whole commercial over-hyped day if I can. Why spend money I can't afford just because I feel sorry for myself?

Lol sorry about previous post, I was having a bad day. :) actually I guess some of these suggestions are ok

It's going to be a pamper myself night.
