unhappy vday

i know it shouldn't have, but it really threw me for a loop at how many people were really and truly unhappy yesterday. it breaks my heart to see people i love not realizing that they are loved.

maybe not in the boy-girl sense. but in the, "hey, somebody cares about you and wants to see you happy" sense.

does that make sense? i hope so.

of course i can say all this happy schmappy bulsch because i am one of the lucky ones who actually got a valentine this year.

would i be happy if i hadn't had one (no offense, love!)? i would like to say yes.

it's interesting how one person's bad mood can bring you down too. i wonder if it doesn't work the other way as well.

lent? sofa, so good. i skipped a couple days of Reading, but other than that i've been golden. it's been very difficult to resist le fast food, especially driving down beechmont ave on my way to practice. there's basically every sort of drive thru joint you could think of up and down that surburban strip. it's terrible, especially for the one who is really bad about eating dinner before she goes to practice.

i've been nervous and negative about the show so far, ,but last night's practice actually went halfway decently. i got a little glimmer of hope. i think it might be alright... if i don't kill the music director first/vice versa. my smartassery is going to get me into trouble one of these days...

ah well. i can deal.

i mean, it can't be that hard, can it??


(THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!!!!!!!!!) (happy that's what she said day...)
