Going on a second date tonight. She has texted me to say she might get “valentinesy”. Don’t know what that means but if I don’t at least get some chocolate then it’s off.

Are you getting her something for valentines? Kind of sounds like it might be a good play here

#111

Haven’t heard it etc etc blah blah.

Oh God. I thought Valentine’s Day had already passed.

For some reason I thought it was last Sunday.

In the queue at Pret guy 1 behind me says to guy 2 “I’ve only just noticed that it’s Valentine’s Day”, to which guy 2 replies “I’ve not got her so much as a pencil in ten years”.

And that was the end of the conversation.

I got a card. I got her a card with two of her favourite things on it (a penguin and some flowers), a bag of mini eggs and a posh salt and pepper grinder set which I found reduced the other day. I rationalise the latter as a gift thusly: our salt shaker has fallen apart, so now when I cook I’m all big with the handful of rock salt sprinkled cheffily all over the place. This means my food is now very salty and unhealthy, so I am literally saving her life by buying us a new salt shaker.

It was all very light-hearted. I mean he may well still be a monster, but the mood was very much cranked up to bants.

I don’t think that’s a terribly commonplace shortening of Valentine’s Day…

Plus I don’t think you’ve appreciated my efforts to balance out my report on the cynicism of strangers with my own heartwarming tale of romance immediately after.

So happy I live in country where this isn’t a huge deal. Especially seeing as I’m forever single, but pretty sure I would’ve hated it had I been the relationship type as well.

Just realised I’ve been unmuted on a big conference call for 15 mins when I thought I was on mute. No idea which of my thoughts I’ve accidentally articulated out loud rather than in my head :smiley:

Hi Dis, it’s my birthday today. I’ve had three coffees and I’m thinking about a fourth. Tipping point is on TV and I’m looking for a new job.

Cheers.

Meanwhile I cannot fucking wait to get paid tomorrow. Just things like pay my phone bill, fill up the fridge, etc, and maybe even go mental and buy a few beers from the shop. Don’t even feel like going outside today cause if I went somewhere I wouldn’t even be able to buy a frickin’ coffee.
