Christine gave it half a thumb, but I actually liked it! I cried throughout the entire movie. It definitely didn&#8217;t touch <em>The Notebook<\/em>, but I&#8217;d recommend at least renting it when it&#8217;s released (if only to see Channing Tatum running around half naked).<\/p>\n<p>I drowned my sorrows at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yelp.com\/biz\/the-local-san-diego\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Local<\/a> with the girls and Antonio Saturday night. Fifty dollars, six cranberry vodkas, two slices of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yelp.com\/biz\/new-york-pizza-and-italian-deli-san-diego\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York pizza<\/a>, and one drunken text to the ex later (yikes), I called it a night at four in the morning.<\/p>\n<p>I woke up on Sunday with a hangover and a text back from Il Postino. I didn&#8217;t get back to him\u2014he <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayanrocks.com\/?p=2041\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">drunk messaged me three times<\/a> the weekend before, so I thought I didn&#8217;t have to explain myself. The girls all texted me to make sure that I wasn&#8217;t going to throw myself off a bridge before spending the day with their significant others, and I even got a V-Day greeting from the Cake Boss (which I also ignored). Shi invited me to brunch, but I felt too sick to eat anything at that ungodly hour. I spent the majority of my day designing Chel&#8217;s wedding invitation while watching Lifetime&#8217;s Lovers Lane Movie Marathon (don&#8217;t judge me). Sitting through all 120 minutes of <em>Flirting with Forty<\/em> was worth discovering <a href=\"http:\/\/craignj.files.wordpress.com\/2009\/04\/robert-buckley.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Robert Buckley<\/a>. Hot damn. I don&#8217;t usually like blondes, but I&#8217;ll make an exception for this one.<\/p>\n<p>Il Postino texted me after midnight\u2014and after he had gotten home from his Valentine&#8217;s date, I&#8217;m sure\u2014saying thanks for (not) returning the drunken text and he hoped I had a great Valentine&#8217;s Day. Number one&#8230; how dare you? And number two&#8230; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayanrocks.com\/?p=670\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">don&#8217;t call me past 11pm<\/a>. It was late, and I didn&#8217;t think it was a good idea to respond, so I didn&#8217;t. I like how we only talk to each other when we&#8217;re intoxicated and\/or at an indecent hour. Don&#8217;t make me that girl that you only call after midnight\u2014especially not on Valentine&#8217;s Day. And especially not when I used to be that girl you&#8217;d take <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayanrocks.com\/?p=229\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener\">roller skating<\/a> on a random Tuesday before the street lights came on.<\/p>\n<p>I would just like to be involved with someone who values me enough to call me at a respectable hour&#8230; someone who would maybe take me to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yelp.com\/biz\/birch-aquarium-at-scripps-institution-of-oceanography-la-jolla\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Birch Aquarium<\/a> to look at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/search\/?q=moon+jellies+birch+aquarium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">moon jellies<\/a>, grab some dinner afterwards (nothing fancy), and maybe share a Churros Con Chocolate cupcake from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yelp.com\/biz\/cups-la-jolla\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cups<\/a>. Or even a churro from Costco would be fine by me.
