Okay, so it’s Saint Valentine’s Day. Whoop-dee-doo. Just a lot of hooplah which takes away all the attention from MY BIRTHDAY which is FIVE DAYS AWAY (SEND A CARD!!!).

There are but a few arguable reasons why Saint Valentine’s Day is relevant, yet many people cling to this day as the best moment to show you love someone, though I beg to differ. However, when you’re in grade school and your mind hasn’t been overwashed with cynicism, the innocence of today’s intentions is unquestionable. Regardless of how I feel, I cannot but be overwhelmed with the Valentines card my son Mathias did for a little girl in his class:

It’s times like this one where I wonder if I’m just not too over-analytical of the world and have forgotten how simple it can be. Then I hear someone talk about the Olympics and the ire gets me back on track.
