Well here we are, another February 14th. Whether you consider it just another exploitation of consumer culture or a day of genuine affection, if you do happen to be single this Valentine’s Day you’re probably going to have a lot on your mind–at least I do anyway. So in honor if it being 2017 here are 17 irrational thoughts that I have on Valentine’s Day to let all my single ladies and fellas know that you’re not alone on this oh so special day of love.
- Do I have to wear something pink?
- People will definitely say something if I don’t wear pink.
- Does chocolate go on sale today or tomorrow?
- Do they still make those heart shaped pizzas?!
- I feel like I need one of those…
- No, I deserve one of those…
- Yes, I am a strong, independent, young professional woman, I own multiple blazers, I deserve this pizza.
- But do I order to pick it up or for delivery? Both seem sad. SAD!
- Nope, nope now I’m thinking about our current political climate.There goes my appetite.
- *Moves “call representatives” and “dismantle the patriarchy” up on to do list*
- Maybe I will wear a little pink.
- No, all black with red lipstick that way I acknowledge it’s a regular day but maybe also that I might have thought about the color conformity of this holiday.
- Back to the chocolate.
- Maybe I’ll get a little somethin’ somethin’ even if it’s not on sale yet.
- Treat yo self, right?
- Let’s be honest, Galentine’s Day is the superior holiday anyway, this day is irrelevant.
