A Day Late

Hey, I never said I would be posting daily, right? Well, yesterday was quite interesting
Valentine's Day - All mixed up
So here's a tiny bit of the "long story" that I mentioned before... My ex-girlfriend told me recently that she'd never had a boyfriend on Valentine's day, and that she wanted to break up temporarily so that it would stay that way... but she never explained further. Well, yesterday was Valentine's day, and although I'd been trying to talk to her for a couple days, we never got about to arranging it, and so we were still together.
So how did that go? Well, I sent her a flash Valentine card at 1:30am (it took me four days to complete), which she saw in the morning. She called me and thanked me for it, but didn't sound too enthusiastic. I didn't see her, though, until All-District Band practice. There, she was talking to someone else and I couldn't really get her attention. When people were settling in, she suprised me by coming up behind me and giving me a hug. We were then separately occupied until after school when we had Marching Band practice for the upcoming Black History parade. She seemed mad at me and wouldn't talk to me. Confused, I waited patiently. Then, while we were warming up outside, she walked up to me and said "This is probably the meanest thing anyone will do to you, but I'm breaking up with you." Then she walked away.
After that extremely long practice, I managed to get her to speak with me. It turns out that I had completely screwed her Valentine's day up, because she had big expectations for gifts, etc. (which was a shock to me because she hated the holiday) and all I'd given her was an electronic card. So most of the other people around school were seen with big balloons and things and she had nothing. Her parents only made it worse when she talked to them, so her day was completely miserable.
After we talked it out, we decided that we would still be friends and that we could still kiss and hold eachother whenever we wanted. The real kicker is when I walked her to her car and before she left we were kissing and talking happily despite having just become separated. The casual commentator would probably be thinking that we're nuts (and might be right), but I'm happy. I get to be with her as I wanted, without worrying about all of the relationship issues, or deal with her parents constantly bickering about it. And so there you know a bit about my mixed up Valentine's day.
