Valentine's Day !
It's Valentines day otherwise known as Vagina day.I say this only to see how you'll react but more so because I believe most people give it up on this day internationally more than any other day. I could be wrong but who cares I just want to sound gross for no particular reason at all.
Most people are excitedly waiting for their dates to pick them up. Those in long term relationships are wondering whether this is the day he'll propose....aah to be in love. I don't even know what that means anymore.
I on the other hand have marked the seventh year of not having a valentine's date since I started dating way back in Africa(when I was 20). Technically it is eight years because the first valentines "date" I had was when I was twenty and my best friend (who I had a huge crush on at the time) asked me out an hour before the date. He spent the entire night drooling over my best friend ,therefore anyone with a spark of dignity in their blood stream wouldn't count that as date but we're talking about me here and I'll be dammed if you take away that little joy of my first valentine's day also known as 'what-the hell-was-I-thinking-dating-that-guy".
I woke up knowing that I have a deadline on a subject matter I have no business dealing with. You see, my boss thinks I'm a good writer. She came to that conclusion after reading another blog of mine(trust me,it wasn't this blog). So she came up with the "bright" idea that I should write the company's business plan and gave me two days. Problem is I didn't know most, if not all of the business terminlogy and I have until this evening to come up with a comprehensible business plan, devoid of any legal terminology and swear words (those two are what am good at).
Well I hope everyone is enjoying their valentine's day. For me it will be the day I got stuck with writing a freakin' business plan.

You're not alone, SiB.
We all have to deal with holiday blues. I get that much; it's innevitable.
But as a kid, nobody told me that being intelligent and articulate at work will doom me to doing things nobody else wants to do.
Oh well. Another of life's lessons delivered the hard way. You know it now. A lot of people never get to see it happen. Turn it into a gift.
Keep doing what you're doing. It's not easy. In the end, nobody's opinion matters except your own.
You're doing great.
where on earth did you come up with the name hotmuschi? shouldn't it be heissmuschi or weichmuschi? I like it, but please tell me more
Hi striving,
I understand what you mean. Now I feel like inorder to avoid work overload, I have to play dumb...As if being single isn't hard enough.
Hi jacksotheby,
so I understimated the intelligence of the American population,I get it. I came up with the name hotmuschi because I thought it would give me inner satifaction to have a user name that no one knew was naughty. Apparently I must have jinxed myself in the process because this muschi ain't getting any!
Ohhh man. Yes, I've been in this position as well. It boils down to: the more you know, the more you do. Even if you haven't ever done a business plan, you're viewed as the "go-to" for that.
At least it's something else to take your mind off of v-day.
Well, throw in some profanity and legalese, that'll spice it up, and you can stick with what you know ;)
Haha and I did get the username ;) You'd be surprised what you can and can't get past people, american or otherwise...
