To Do List for Monday, February 14th - Valentine's Day

1. Forget that it's Valentine's Day as is bull**** holiday invented by Hallmark, See's Candy, Godiva and Satan to make single people - even people who like to be single - feel singled out in ways most unpleasant. Holiday drives the knife further into the hearts of spinster's who don't actually want to be spinsters (unlike some happily self-proclaimed spinsters), and into the heart's of sad sack men who really want to fall in love and marry but are finding it hard to do either on account of being a sad sack. Holiday also painful for somewhat or very unhappily marrieds, as it serves to point out that flowers, cards, excitement of any kind, variety of any kind, dinner out and sex are only happening once a year instead of every day like they happened in yesterdays gone by. Holiday also much more too heterosexually inclined, which is a bummer for many a happy non-hetero couple.

2. In attempt to forget that it's bull**** Valentine's Day, will overcompensate by wishing everyone Happy Valentines Day!!!! all day long with a forced chipper smile and forced skip in each step. Will also feel guilty when co-workers actually bring in candy shaped hearts with cute sayings on them. Will try not to get up in arms (again) over the fact that these cute sayings are rather less cute than they were back in the day now that they're trying too hard to be hip. (Hmm, should perhaps buy some lame candies to share with co-workers, as not giving Christmas presents last year and the year before have quite possibly labeled me as thoughtless, selfish and greedy.

3. Aside from wrestling with Valentine's Day, will actually wake up very early (4:30), get to work by 7:00, and proceed to do work all day without slacking by either playing on the Internet, talking to my numerous imaginary friends, or sneaking off to the bathroom for a secret wank.

4. At 5:00 will leave promptly to go home.

5. At home will eat dinner and work on cleaning out my computer (to ready it for professional cleaning) and begin going through my journals to see if there is anything worthwhile to build on.

6. Watch Everwood. Drool all over Bright and worry about Hannah being possibly very sick, and Dr Abbott ruining everything form my homeboy and homegirl Ephram and Amy. SHUT UP Dr Abbott!!!!!!!

7. Go to bed at 9. Wake up early again the next day.

I am SO hell bent on doing 3-7, I'll actually bet people pennies that I will succeed. Wake up early. Hard work. No slacking. For at least one whole day.

I am Picard's No. 1, and I am GOING to make it so!
