Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day was quite interesting this year.  About 3 weeks ago my roommate Melissa invited to go to Rage on Vday.  I was actually dreading the whole event although I knew that I was going to have an awesome time.  I was scheduled to work three days straight this weekend and wasn’t looking forward to having to drive from Costa mesa after work to Alhambra and back to Costa mesa the next morning for work. 

It turns out, Melissa somehow lost her driver’s license while she was out perusing for shoes that afternoon, so we ended up making a trip to Guppy tea house and chatted until 2am in the morning.  This was perfect because I would rather have an amazing conversation any day over dancing up a storm in the club (although I do admit that that would have been fun as well).  It’s funny though, because Melissa and I overdressed for a tea house.  We were in our clubbing attire and arrived early too, (at around 11pm )which makes it difficult to pretend that we had just gotten out of a club since that’s the time when people just start to trickle in.  Ehh but who cares, people are generally trendy there anyway and it was for a special occasion.

We just talked about  relationships, about people, you know, all the fun stuff to talk about on Vday.  Talking about these things really helped to solidify in my mind the type of person that I’m looking for.  Melissa was entirely right, I do have high standards but I tend to settle because I can’t find the right person, which I shouldn’t do.  It was a reality check of some sort.  Good times

I’m glad that I didn’t have to wake up early the next day with a hangover, drive to work, and then manage to work an 8 hour day.  Yesterday was stressful enough working sober, no need to compound that with lingering alcohol in my body.
