Obligatory Valentine Post

Ugh. It's Valentine's Day again. And as many of you may recall from past posts, I'm not a huge fan of the day. But at least February 15th brings the promise of half- off chocolate and Valentine inspired argyle knee socks in the clearance section at Target. So yeah, there's that.

Since everyone is in a lubby-dubby frame of mind today (shoot me), I figured it would be a good time to share a few layouts I made while I was clearly operating under the influence of clearance Christmas candy.


This is my nephew and his first girlfriend. As sweet as it is (Awwww...), it's a very strange thing to witness. Whenever I'm around them, I feel like Jane Goodall observing the primates and their mating rituals. I've never seen them speak, but instead they'll text while sitting right next to one another. If they feel safe, and no one is watching, they'll hold each others sweaty hands. Already establishing her dominance, the girlfriend dictates where they go, what they do and which other primates they hang out with. The nephew just drags his knuckles as he follows behind.


And then we come to me and my loser behind. Two time loser behind. Yep. I don't think many of you knew that. Well now ya do. Journaling reads, "2 Time Loser at Love! But I'm okay with that. I've walked away from these relationships as a stronger, happier, better version of myself. I have a clearer understanding of the life I wish to lead, the countless adventures I intended to embark upon, and in time, I have faith that I'll find love again." Cross your fingers for me that I won't be a three time loser. If so, I'll be needing lots more clearance chocolate!

Here are some Nikki Sivils badges as my Valentine's Day gift to you! Yeah... I went all out.
