Melissa and I are both single and decided to make the most of Valentines Day. Melissa had the idea of volunteering to feed the homeless. At first I wasn't in the mood which is horrible to say but I had so much to do this past weekend I just didn't have the time. I decided that I was being ridiculous and needed to do it.
It was in the basement of a church that had a questionable smell. It reminded me of CCD. We had no idea what we were suppose to do but everyone was really nice and helpful. Most of the homeless people were very nice and thankful but of course there were a few interesting comments. There was one man who told a pregnant woman she was having a bastard because she wasn't married and another man that got mad at me because I wouldn't give him more peas. I told him we had to wait fifteen minutes before we could give out seconds and I thought he was going to throw his plate at me.
We met some pretty cool volunteers that we hung out with at Whole Foods. Really, nothing was open on Valentines Day.
After our volunteering time we headed out to our Valentines Day "ball" in the city. I am officially done wearing dresses in the winter. I'm only going out dressed like the little brother in A Christmas Story.
Melissa and I decided it was a wine night. I lost my debit card on wine night. Actually Darryl lost my card because he decided to use it for Chinese food when I didn't even want Chinese food. Despite that we had a good time. It's nice to dress up once in a while but I think I'll wait for the spring to bust out a dress again.
Also a guy at the church asked me for my phone number, and yes it was a volunteer not a homeless person.
