Happy happy joy joy: it's Valentine's Day, a day that I have almost always hated. It inspires ridiculous expectations from and for many people. Then there is the other bunch: the Who Cares Bunch. There is also a secret bunch that just doesn't expect much and doesn't want things to just go to hell.
The spouse and I exchanged gifts about a few weeks ago. We couldn't wait, and I was genuinely surprised and happy with my gift of some little diamond studs. The only thing we didn't exchange was cards at the time, so I went and bought one at the last minute, while at the hospital waiting for Rx.
We made no plans, no reservations anywhere, and I'm not even certain when the spouse will come home from work. I don't know how to feel when he gets home. I'm certainly not jolly now, after coming home from the shrink and counselor. So who knows what will happen, if anything. Best not to expect anything under my circumstances.
