Back in high school, to my first "true love" (and boy was I a fool, he dumped me because I wouldn't sleep with him and he informed me 2 days later that he was dating someone else and that they were sleeping together...just wanted me to hear it from him...what a doll...but I digress) for Valentines Day I gave him a fish in a fish bowl and all the accessories. Two days after we broke up it died. Coincidence? He swears it died. I swear he killed it.
So, today, the first Valentines Day that I HAVE a Valentine that I love and is worth keeping, I have to study for an exam and he has hockey. That's ok, we'll make up for it later. Besides, there will be many more to come.
