Ok, pray tell, why do you want a smelly 16 year old male with hormone issues as a boyfriend?
Ha. Being single is not as remotely fun as single people like to convince themselves of.
On Valentines day I shall be attending a rock n' roll gig, listening to Joy Division covers and drinking whisky. Maybe I'll ask someone to marry me, we'll wait and see.

*frowns* Discovery Zone is that way. *points*
Aye, indeed.Ha. Being single is not as remotely fun as single people like to convince themselves of.
Come get drunk with me on St. Patty's Day, Karen?
Aye, indeed.
Let's just change this to "I agree." hehAs compared to having to maintain a relationship with gifts and trinkets, and having to actually work toward change because the other person doesn't like you as you are? Heh, sure. Most women don't like my "I won't change for you, and do things my way" attitude, so I figure going about my own business is easier then a female (or male if you like the peter) getting pissed because I won't budge to fix something they don't like.
.This is named after Vali, a son of Odin and defender of the family. He symbolises the new light after darkness and in our myths slays the blind Hother (dark) and so is a herald for the approaching of Spring and the Summer Finding (Ostara): a "new awakening". Rays of light are often called "shafts" and as a light bringer he is often depicted as a bowman firing shafts of light. He thus is also a God of love and it is entirely possible the "Valentine" motif of lovers being smitten by "arrows of love" is based upon the earlier mythology of Vali. Vali's slaying of Hother also avenges Balder, the fairest of all the Gods. Thus he is also a deity of just vengeance. (This is not to be mistaken with petty or spiteful revenge, but is a balancing and an alteration to allow this balance and harmony to take place). He is a defender of light and good. This blot is the Festival of the Family, a time to remember not only our closest family but those who are our kindred by blood in the extended family of our folk and our fellow Odinists.
I resent that...not all of us are THAT bad.
