Confessions of an Un-Romantic.

Valentine's on Monday.
Joy. >_>

I'll be spending the whole day with my head under the covers if I can.
I'm just not interested in any sort of lovey dovey nonsense. Yes, love is a wonderful thing - and I'm not being sarcastic - but Teh Armeez Of OMGIWuvJoo are just too much for me to take.
I shouldn't have to stick my tongue down someone else's throat to be a complete person. My general attitude? Eye candy is good. Friendship is good. But anything more than that... I don't know, I'm just not interested. I can't see myself ever tongue tangling someone - yeah, that's right, I never have in any case. I can't stand being kissed, even on the cheek. I can't stand hugs unless they're to/from a friend, as a genuine comfort thing. Not just as a greeting. I've never had a real boyfriend (or girlfriend), unless you count little-school pseudoromances. Although I've thought 'That guy's cute' many times I've never felt compelled to act on it - I'm just not interested in what would come next.
Dear Din, I sound like a robot. Heh, if that was the case, at least I'd get a laser cannon out of the bargain...

There should be a sort of Anti-Valentine. Some way of celebrating pure friendships without celebrating couple-icity, maybe. Anyone up for a celebration on the 15th?

Well, if nothing else, this damn holiday provides chocolate.

(no subject)

I really, really, need another email address. It's all well and cool having a realname one - and it'll be very useful in future, I'm sure - but it's all the question of do I want the Whole Wide Web knowing my full name?
Guy I know once said he'd send me a Gmail invite. Never did. But I'm not really worried about it. Seen a free email service that seems to do what I'm after (not just webmail) - not one I'd heard of before, but for free, don't really care... Only it seems that signups are shut. Damn.
There's two emails going spare on the ISP but I don't really want to use one of those up.
I'll use pure-webmail if I have to, but I'd rather not... ah well, just me being fussy.

I just need to settle on an email name.
Don't want to go back to 'dragonheart' again. Part of me wants to go with something relating to one of my manga characters, just worried that that's a reverse-sue situation...

Edit: Screw it.
