Hmmm.. Valentine’s Day and various ramblings
February 14th, 2007 | Published in Uncategorized | 2 Comments
Well I haven’t posted much recently, and it’s just because I haven’t been up to anything interesting. I’m still editing away at work, which is a bit boring because it’s programmes I didn’t film, so I just have to kind of put them together. I’ve got about another month left on it, and then hopefully on to my own series. I’ve also been skint since coming back from Dallas, (as I was determined not to use my Amex card there) so I haven’t really been out since my birthday.
Also, there doesn’t seem to be that much interesting going on out there at the moment… or maybe I’m just missing it all.
Valentine’s Day today… hmmmm… it sucks if you’re single. First off I have been accosted about thirty times by swarthy skinned people wanting me to buy a rose. The only rose I’ll be buying is to shove down your throat thanks very much. I don’t need reminding that I’m single!
On the way back from swimming tonight, EVERYONE seemed to be in couples. How annoying. Also Pizza Hut was full of couples having dinner. I thought that was weird. Surely you want to go someplace a bit nice on Valentine’s Night?
So did I send a Valentine this year? No. I very very nearly did. But I decided against it. I like the whole Valentine’s tradition, and I think it’s nice that you have a chance every year to let someone know you like them in a kind of secretive way. I also think it’s nice for the person receiving it.
I did check out flowers and that. But for some reason I decided against it. Not even because if my mates found out they’d garotte me. I just feel the person I like probably knows I like em anyway, and that’s fine just now. I’m trying to play it cool anyway…. and I really need to be looking elsewhere.
Oh and I had to take a picture of Rolos to illustrate this cos I couldn’t find any Loveheart sweets in the shop. Not quite the same, but it’s meant to be the last rolo. The Lovehearts had probably all been bought by couples today. Grrrr.

Simon,
my heart went out to you all alone on valentines, if i could have shared a slice of pizza with ya i would, alas i am a married woman and can no longer share fast food with random men as i once did. However for the record you sound like a mighty fine catch, what with your glamorous job and all. i fancy myself as a bit of a cilla black and am a very good judge of character,i am currently finding love for a few tormented and loveless souls out there.(whose names i can not mention due to legal reasons- but Gohir and John are on my books) so just you get a pic up there and if you’re any way half decent lookin i garantee you will be singin a far different tune next Feb 14th. and even if your kinda ugly i shall consider this a challenge, they say good lookin people find love, and ugly people just find company, but either way its all good.

hey simon,
samantha here, hope you’re well. i’m still in sunny london but missing you loads! i read your valentine day blog, you’re so right - couples everywhere. you do know that kate in our office is still totally in love with you. i think she wishes that you’d come back to london to work! she’s a hottie so you should consider it. anyway i’ve been reading some of your comments and find it hilarious that some married woman wants to set you up with someone - god loves a trier but i reckon you should come back for a visit soon and hook up with kate.
hope to see you soon
sam
