hearts and hatchets

i love friday the 13th! it's a fun day, especially to see all the folks out there who are a bit superstitous about it. also, they made a remake of the movie that comes out today, which i think sounds awesome. my boyfriend's daughter wants to go see it, but i told her she's got like seven years to wait. i'm not going to be responsible for nightmares!

it's weird to have a boyfriend on valentine's day, since that very rarely happens. we don't have any big plans; he's got to work all day, and it's not a huge deal for me. (i honestly think it's just a holiday built around guilt and consumerism!) i am knitting him some socks for his clogs though, and we're hoping sometime this month to get to take a tiny trip together. i told him the best thing about this holiday is that we can probably talk someone into watching the kids overnight, so we can go out and goof off by ourselves. i did also order him a baking stone from the pampered chef, but that's not exactly a valentine's gift and it's kind of a selfish one at that. after all, i'll get to enjoy the fruits of his baking labor. do you have plans? what are they?

I'm working in the morning, and then will probably spend the rest of the day either in front of the computer watching episodes of "48 Hours" on CBS.com or parked on the couch while Jay (my hubby) blows through about 6 seasons of "The Simpsons." Fun...Well, not really.

Pre breakup I was going to go with the boyfriend - and his band with all of their girlfriends - to Milwaukee, where they're playing a show tonight. Post breakup I was still welcome to join them, but didn't feel up to it.

Instead I'm stepping out tonight with another single gal. We're getting dressed up and going to our other friends' bands play. And it will be fun.
