It Was Valentine’s Day, I Guess.
Feb. 20, 2015—I know it’s a cliché to say that I don’t like Valentine’s Day, so I won’t say that. Instead, I’ll tell you something even cheesier: this Valentine’s Day was the best Valentine’s Day of my life. Wow, okay, that made me cringe a little. Moving on. The day started early – too early, almost. I...
