Working.  We'll probably go out to dinner tomorrow night (it's usually 
too busy to go out on the actual day).

Well, I think I'll eat a bucket of ice cream and cry myself to sl-- oh, wait.
Oops.  NON-single people.  Sorry.

replying...

Nothing. We're not even spending time together today.

It's an artificial holiday and we don't need it to show our love for each 
other. Of course we don't live in America, so it might not be as deeply 
rooted in our culture (yet) but the stores certainly do what they can to 
proclaim its significance.

I strongly considered standing on the street with a "free hugs" sign, 
since I figure there's got to be some people who'd need cheering up 
today, and why should the day be only about good vibes between romantic 
couples?  In the end I have too much work that I need to get done to 
take the day off and I'd be too shy to do that without company (and I 
don't know anyone offhand who could take the day off to join me).  Oh 
well.  Also, having a fancy dinner tonight with the lady at an italian 
restaurant.

Also, of course, because a lone guy with that sign would come of a lot 
sketchier than would be the case with a few people of mixed sexes.

Hear hear!  It *is* a Hallmark Holiday(tm); but of course that doesn't 
mean we're not doing anything special - just that every day is special 
for us.
