1. Clean my apartment
2. Do 2 loads of laundry
3. Go to the gym

Ok, they may not be exciting things to do, but they are all things that do not take very much mental power. This is perfect for me, on this day, because it gives me time to think about and appreciate the loves in my life.

ClampTastic

On my 26th birthday I was given many things. My family and friends were generous with cash and gifts uniquely for me. My favorite gift was a piece of art designed for me specifically. This pen sketched robot makes me smile, yet feel a sadness as well. I love myself a robot, so of course my Joy derives from my metal friend simply existing. I do feel a sense of sadness from what the bot speaks: “GOODBYE”. The robot is addressing an unknown woman, but is Tobor saying “GOODBYE” because Tobor is killing her or is the piece saying “GOODBYE” to me? ERROR…NO LOVE.

Late Night Duets

There is nothing in the world that makes me feel as complete and loved as I do when I am up at 1 in the morning playing my guitar loud and singing a songs like “Red Letter Day” and “Anne Arbour” with my girl. Her voice fits mine perfectly in key giving the songs I used to sing solo a full richer sound. The songs have more passion and I hear that backing support pushing me to belt-out my song. During those late night duets, my girl and I are one.

Strong Opinions

Truth is, it takes a lot of effort to be as cool as I am. One doesn’t get to be like me on their own. Everyone needs people in their lives to give it to them straight. Case and point: this blog post. This post was originally be about concepts regarding army wives (this post may still come), but a certain someday told me it would not be a fitting blog for Valentine’s day. On a day you are trying to make women happy, do not attack them. Disaster avoided thanks to the opinions of my loved one. This blog turned out better anyway.
