Just kidding (not really). Here at the LW blog, this day can be hard because while the other 364 are enough of a reminder of our perpetual loneliness, today makes that reminder inescapable!! From the excessive PDA, the pink hearts, happy couples, and red roses it can sometimes be too much for the average LW to bear. But that doesn't mean you should slit your wrists just so you can see red on this day too!! How about you drink a lot of red wine instead? Perhaps in a nice chamomile bubble bath? And what they hey, buy those Godiva chocolates...everyone else is! Luckily this horrible day falls on a Monday this year, so the blow is somewhat lessened by the fact that people do actually have jobs to go to and things to do and the world doesn't stop just because you cube mate got 3 dozen red roses from some guy she's been seeing for 2 weeks but already knows he's the one!!! Er, I mean, the best approach for any LW is to look at this day as any other, and before you know it, it will be Tuesday and all the crappy Valentine's Day stuff that Walgreen's didn't sell will be 75% off. So look at the silver lining my LW friends, there's always next year, and when you come home tonight, I know for a fact Jinxy Cat will be VERY excited to spend the holiday with you. Just don't forget the salmon, it's his holiday treat.
For those that find this day to be too difficult, there is help. Call our hotline: 1-800-555-IMALW, we have operators standing by to talk you off that ledge and direct you to LW support groups in your area. Just think less than 15 hours to go and this will all be over...
