For the past few days I'd forgotten that Valentine's Day hadn't come yet. For me, my Valentine's Day was last weekend, when Kalan came to visit me. We had a really great weekend together and spent our time (besides the obvious, of course) just talking and enjoying being together. We were lucky this time since it'd only been two weeks since his last visit, but now I won't see him again for another month. However, that month away is our three-year anniversary.

Three years. Seems like quite a bit, but I feel like we've been together so much longer. Our dedication to eachother has only grown stronger over the years, and I couldn't be happier. We still call eachother every night, not out of obligation (which is odd to me, since I am most definitely not a phone person), but because we want to hear about the other's day. I sit and I think about the two of us cooking dinner together or napping on the floor and I just feel happy. I couldn't love anyone more. I know in my heart that we have many, many more Valentines together.

This very sappy entry brought to you by the fact that it's Valentine's Day. Avoid the commercialism and just be with the people you care about! Or make something, dammit!

And for a really great entry about how Valentine's Day should be apporoached, check out Yarn Harlot's take on the holiday. It's like she's reading my mind.
