Feb. 4th, 2007 11:56 pmI've come to the conclusion February is a tough damn month. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
appleang and I separated in a February, making this the eighth anniversary of my return to living alone. It's far enough into winter that you are sick of the cold, but there's still at least another month of it. Throw in things like the silly Hallmark-holiday that is V-Day and you've got a recipe for depression. For most of my life I had no real opinion about Valentine's as a holiday. The only person who was really into it was Kim, which translated into one great Valentine's Day for us and five years of disappointment to follow. Actually, the same thing happened with birthdays. Well, really my entire relationship with Kim could be summed up in the same terms.
As I've repeatedly told myself for years: let. it. the. f*ck. go.
In any case, at the concert last week I heard this song by Dar and it seemed to really capture the angst of February.
