I love Valentine's Day too - both for the aesthetic (isn't it interesting how often Halloween people are also Valentine's people? I don't have any deep thoughts about that, just something I've observed) and because love is so important to me, and I appreciate a day set aside for celebrating all the love in my life. It bums me out when people hate it, even if I do understand the objection to capitalism's co-opt of it; I suppose it bothers me more when I explain why I love it and people just reject that as a valid thing to enjoy and honour.

I've been trying to keep sane by listening to podcasts on my breaks at work - my work situation is soooOoOoOoOoooo bad right now and listening to people I enjoy talk at me for half an hour is helping a lot, lol. If you're in the market for recs, I'd be happy to share, but if you're not looking for recs I don't wanna be That Guy XD
