Happy Singles Awareness Day!

Ah, February 14.

The one day of the year when it's perfectly legitimate to walk into a Godiva store and buy huge boxes of ridiculously priced chocolates, and then consider giving them to someone else.

The holiday that celebrates both incredibly fattening foods and skimpy underwear.

The first occasion for Facebook to introduce new gift icons (though the notorious "box with a hole" remains popular).

I celebrated by writing all day and getting Chinese take-out from Karen Wong's for dinner. But heck, it could be so much worse - how many inches of snow does New York have, again? And something like two feet more today?

Well, at least their latest blizzard is an excuse for candlelight and cuddling, even if it's just to preserve body heat.
