Valentine's Day-Through the Years

Valentine's Day circa 1991












Popular, AND modest too!

Valentine's Day 2006: I had no boyfriend and no special Valentines Day plans...It was just a typical day in the life of me! I stopped into a few shops on 5th avenue after work...As I was walking home, a guy was stumbling towards me from the other direction. It definitely looked like he was drunk. As he passed by me, he reached out his hand (which apparently had a bottle of some sort of hard liquor in it) and dumped the liquor over my head!! I was shocked and upset...I screamed out to him that he was an A$$hole, and before I knew it, he was gone. I walked all the way home crying w/ crunchy liquor soaked hair in the freezing cold (in hindsight, this might have been one of those times where splurging on a cab would have been a good idea)...WORST VALENTINES DAY EVER!! How come crazy things like this only happen to me?

Valentine's Day 2011: I arrive in sunny Melbourne! One of my faaaavorite cities in the whole wide world (sorry New York!). Happy Valentine's Day to me!!! Which leads me to the bad news: Since I will be in Australia for a few weeks, I might not be so good about updating my blog. I will try my hardest, but I might be too busy eating Tim Tams and frolicking on the beach. Don't worry, I'll be back before you know it!

  2. That 2006 story, how come I don't remember it!?! I'll miss your blog while you're gone, but I'm glad we got a change to speak before your trip. You are inspiring me to frolic on the beach soon.
