I decided, apropos of nothing, to celebrate Valentine's Day this year by giving myself a little romantic love.

Besides that obvious thing, I used a birthday coupon to take myself out on a cheap date to Ruby Tuesday's, and flirted with the waitress (who kindly flirted back).

I bought myself a bar of dark chocolate.

I went out and played with a bunch of friends at an open mic, and had a Jamerson's, neat.

I bought a ticket to a fundraiser concert for a musician who's running for City Council. I also made arrangements to see some good friends when I go downstate at the end of the month, and, along the way, see Buffy St. Marie at Woodstock's Bearsville Theater.

I had long phone conversations with my friend Kokomo Slim down in New Orleans and with Marco in Florida. I've already arranged my trip to NOLA, and now I'm making plans for another trip to Wilbur-by-the-Sea early in March.


I watched some of The Fault In Our Stars while I ate the chocolate, and decided it had been an excellent Valentine's Day.

I am so grateful I am in love with myself these days - it hasn't always been that way.
