I realize that my lack of updates could be interpreted in such a way that one might be led to believe that I finally succumbed to the Valentine's misery that I've long been threatening (up the road, not across the street). Yes, dear reader, I did cry--sob, even--this Valentine's Day eve, per my yearly policy. The only noteworthy aspect of this year's debacle is that it took place in a Korean karaoke booth. Other than that, pretty par for the course.
