ramble through the bronx
yes, this here is ramble through the bronx, the continuing musings of a graduate student* who should be writing her dissertation, but honestly, living in new york city there's really so much else to do...* and her commenting friends. And guest blogger.

I hate Valentine's Day, but I still want your love
My 4-part argument against Valentine's Day:
1. If you are single, it is a reminder of our society's continual expectation that You Be In A Couple.
2. If you are in a relationship, you have a zillion other occasions (birthdays, anniversaries, etc.) to do nice things together.
3. If you have just broken up with someone, it is just painful.
4. If you have just gotten together with someone, the pressure of knowing what level of enthusiasm to put into the day is very stressful.
That said, send me love!
Get your own valentinr
