i call do-over

[mousapelli]

so listen, I generally don't take Valentine's Day very hard. Out of 29 of them, I've had a valentine exactly twice, so I'm pretty used to having it be the case that the only person who gives me anything be my father. It's cool, I don't get too bent out of shape about it, since there's 364 other days in the year when nobody is interested in me either, whatever.

I totally started out in an okay mood, I have a cute new red/pink ruffly scarf I knitted myself and everything, no problem.

1. but it happens that this year Secret Pal time has lasted longer than usual, so I stroll into the high school 2nd period like usual, and the whole ledge underneath the mailboxes is covered from end to end with stuff for people from their secret pals. Cute little bags, stuffed animals, etc, all over. Does my Secret Pal come through? Nope. And even then I would have probably shrugged it off, except I didn't get anything at all from them all of last week, so I thought we were leading up to something. sad ;__;

and also the person I have will not shut up about how they got (fake, chocolate) coal from their secret pal (me) at Christmas and how it was mean. It wasn't mean! It was funny! I'd be ecstatic for some fake chocolate coal right now!

2. I'm not even going to talk about anime club. ugh.

3. then I go out for a grocery store run since it's luncheon day tomorrow, even though it's icy raining and ugh, and on the way back I am like, I will stop at Dunkin Donuts and get myself a coffee and a cute donut! I can buy myself a donut if nothing else!

...no I can't, because the Dunkin Donuts is somehow entirely out of donuts. whaaaat. ;___________;

4. and now i've just gotten off the phone with my parents, who drunkdialed me as they were leaving their fancy Valentine's dinner date to a) tell me how good their salmon was at length ("What did you eat?" "reheated drama night meatloaf? wth did you think I'd be eating?!") and b) inform me I have to go take care of the dog after school tomorrow. *beats head on table*

what the hell seriously. I have two coffee milk kitkats left for an emergency and I am eating one of them right the hell now.

I know I don't often comment, but I just want to tell you that when I do get a chance to read my flist, I like to hear from you and know how you're doing. Over the years, you've just snuggled right down in my heart and I'm so glad to have you there.

I'm sorry you've had a crap day. You deserve lots better. <3

Thank you ♥ that's nice to hear~

Ugh, people suck :( I think fake chocolate coal is pretty funny too, I guess they just don't have much of a sense of humour :/

... How can Dunkin Donuts be out of donuts!? That's like a bar being out of alcohol or something.

:( *hugs* If I had your address, I would totally send you (late) Valentine's choco. You should PM me your address, yo XD ♥

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

I emailed (uh, so let me know if I didn't email the right person XD)

I know, right?! i was completely indignant at that point. In their defense, it seemed like they had had pretty much a mob scene in there all day. Everybody loves donuts, I guess?

[myxstorie.livejournal.com]

I got it! :D

Valentines is no longer the day of love and chocolate, it's the day of donuts? I hope today was a little less of a let-down than yesterday ♥

-_- if someone signs up to be a secret pal, they shouldn't be a douche and not come through.

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

to be fair, they have totally turned up a couple awesome things over the course of the 6 weeks, but there is kind of an understanding that you will do something (even something super small like a soda or a chocolate bar) at least once a week. and i'm being touchy about it just because now i have complex about not being a good enough secret pal for my person.

still nothing today either. sadfaaaaaaaaaace. Reveals are next Friday.

Ugh that's just a bad day in general, nevermind it being a silly holiday. :( much love to you! It's not like anyone outside the Internet matters anyway, right. <3

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

well certainly I hope not, since it really doesn't seem like I can turn up much action outside of the internet, and I mean that in every sense you could take it.

thanks ♥ hope yours was better than mine.

Dude, I tried to go get a boston creme at Dunkin' Donuts yesterday and they were all "NO, DENIED" too.

So I was what-in-God's-naming in the drive-thru line in Buffalo in solidarity.

Right?! like I would have eaten any kind of donut, they seriously did not have a single donut.

There were about two very sad looking muffins, and nothing else. Not even a munchkin! It was crazy!

if you can't even get a donut in central Pennsylvania, I just don't know what things are coming to.

This is about 2 days late and I probably am one of your ~creepy stalkers~ who comments maybe once a year (sorry).. I'm sorry that you had such a crappy Valentine's Day :( Mine was terrible too, and I guess a terrible day is only magnified by the fact that it is Valentine's Day?

I hope you're feeling better now :)
