[0:00] He does. I Yeah. He's funny. He completely gets my sense of humor, which, I mean, I appreciate it.
But also at the same time, it's kind of annoying because sometimes I just really want to shock him with the shit that comes out of my mouth, and instead he just, like, plays along with it doesn't even faze him, right? Because he actually knows that you are.
Yeah. Because he has the same exact thing.
Yeah, he's pretty demented as well. So. Or is that what we're going to call it is demented. Yes.

[0:33] I went to the store and I can't believe they make such a big deal about Valentine's Day. Still. Is that just. Yeah, we are.

[0:42] Okay, But we don't that doesn't have to be the lead in. I was just saying.

[0:47] I'm in on this conversation. We are coming live to you today in two different states.
Ohio, John is in Ohio. And we're trying to get some, you know, ketchup and all that fun stuff, give you guys some entertainment.
While she's gone, though, we're face timing.
Why do you always look so pretty? Oh, I don't know, girl. What's your secret?
You think you're in love with me? I must be in love with you, Dude, I can't help it.
Are you? Do you love me? Of course I love you. You better love me.
I. Secret is hydration. I drink a lot of water, Hydration, a lot of water.
And you use a lot of stuff on your face. I mean, I moisturize. Well. That's it.
Oh, my gosh. Well, I do have a face mask that I like. This is so fucking funny.
I have this face mask that I like to use. It's that Amazonian clay mass. Mm hmm.

[1:46] Well, I told Jordan about it. I've been because he keeps wanting to do all these facials and stuff because he's feeling like he's getting up there or whatever.
He thinks I look younger than he does, and so. Oh, so he's trying to take good care of his skin. And I'm like, Just use this Amazonian clay that I have.
The other day he tried it. Well, his mouth, it says to leave it on there until it dries, and then you wipe it off.
Well, he thought if he left it on there for 40 minutes, it would do extra.
And I shit you not like he was freaking out. He's like, I'm never doing this again. Like his.
He said, It looks like I just French kiss the sun, his face beat.
I mean, he showed me the wine like it was so red he couldn't go to sleep. It hurt so bad.
Nah, that is hilarious.
That is such a dude thing to do. Like, maybe if I just use it for longer, it'll be better.
I know. I'm like, Why would you think that? Right? Like, there are instructions for a reason on things like that. And that's why I said, I'm like, Did you read the instructions? He said, Yeah.
He said not to put it on for longer than 20 minutes. So I left it on for 40.
I'm like, Oh my gosh, that's not feel bad that, that your face is on fire right now.
Hey, this will be your first year in a long time that you've had a valentine, right?

[3:05] Yeah. Like, is it a thing that you still want to celebrate? Because, like, it's not a holiday that Brad and I really celebrate.
I mean, we'll say Happy Valentine's Day, and I usually will like last minute.
Get him a card or he'll get me. Like, I don't even.
Yeah. Is it something that, like, you're looking forward to celebrating because.
Well, I mean, you have to realize I'm in the honeymoon phase of this whole relationship, so every single little excuse I have to celebrate or be excited.
I want to go to ten. Yeah. Yeah.

[3:36] I'm absolutely excited to have my first Valentine's with him.
I was just thinking about all of the past Valentine's Days and like, how last year you and a few of our other friends were like, If Valentine's Day.
And then you see all these people posting about, like, how it's coming up and they're like, isn't it? It's totally a commercialized thing, you know? Oh, yeah.
Like a Hallmark holiday. Yeah. I mean, it's an unnecessary holiday, but I, you know, I'm I think it's good to have any excuse to tell somebody you love them. Oh, sure.
But I'm seeing all these people. I'm like, Oh, my gosh, I was trying to think of all these different valentines that we could share with others, so maybe they wouldn't be sad that they don't have a Valentine to share.
I actually love that because, you know, coming from the last well, honestly, the last three years, Valentine's has been kind of a lonely thing, you know.

[4:34] Not being with like, feeling like I'm with the person that I'm supposed to be with.
And also when I was in in 2020, that was like I had just separated from my husband for Valentine's Day.
So I don't even remember even acknowledging the day. I think I might have just taken my boys out to dinner or something like that.
I think Brad and I went to a concert with friends.
I think we went to see like Jamey Johnson that year because it was right before Rona hit.
And I remember going over to their house and he was like stocking up on all of this shit.
And I was like, Why are you stocking up on all of this? And he's like, Oh, you haven't heard about the Corona virus, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And literally, like two weeks later, we were like, it hit, so.
Didn't think that Rona was going to be what it was. So I was kind of surprised when it did hit the fan, but in many ways it was a blessing.
But that's a whole other topic. Yeah, Yeah.
Back to this whole Valentine. So do you have like, plans or like, let's like, how can we make single people feel not so sad about having, not having a valentine?
So how about this? How about you count your blessings like you could?
For example, I have planned a Valentine's Day for, you know, a guy that got a boner when he wore my underwear.

[5:55] Okay. At least you're not doing that. Like, you're not wasting your time on it on something like that. Like he didn't get aroused by me sexually, but he sure to get aroused when he put my underpants on.
Right? Oh, I planned to a Valentine's Day for a guy whose version of fun was listening to self-help, CD's in the car over and over and over again and over again.
And they didn't help him.
I know. No, not too much.
We ended up not together, obviously.

[6:33] True story. I spent Valentine's Day with a man who was literally crying over a conversation he had with his ex wife, like crying over his ex wife on Valentine's Day. Oh my gosh. Was that a recent one?

[6:49] I mean, that was not last year, the year before. Okay. Oh, my gosh.
And he dinner and he was literally sitting there sobbing the whole time.
So I just played with his dog and let him cry.
You didn't offer like, a shoulder to cry and you were like, Oh, just cook dinner and you cry.
Talk to you when you're crying because your tears are going to make me really uncomfortable.
Like, also, like, why are you dating me if you're crying over your ex, right? Just.

[7:15] It doesn't make any sense. So I once planned for a Valentine's Day for a guy who got this idea that he was going to collect cans, and he was going to collect cans and it was going to make extra money and he was going to put that money into the business.
Like when we were down in on vacation with a bunch of people, literally packed the car with the beer cans from the weekend to bring it home.
How embarrassing. What was embarrassing is that he never even freakin cashed them in.
It wasn't like a bad idea, and I was fully supportive of it.
Right. But like, you didn't even follow through with the damn thing.
Like, my. You remember, my. My garage ended up looking like a damn junkyard.
Yeah, I pile high full of trash, right? I mean, cans.
Cans. I was like, can't we even can we do bottles? Because those are at least $0.10.
Like, how are we going to do?
Oh, yeah. So, I mean, that's not a bad thing. But when the root of it is like that again, no follow through, then, you know. So at least you're not in a situation like that all your singles. Wait, wait.
No, that was just remembering my first husband, who actually both of my husband, neither one of them would brush their teeth before they went to bed.

[8:44] I planned Valentine's Day for men who didn't brush their teeth before they went to bed.
Like he couldn't even take care of himself. How the hell is he supposed to take care of you, dude?
Right. Your room is seriously sit in my mouth and all the food that you've just eaten today in brush. Brush them in the morning.
I don't know. It didn't make any sense. So one of them would clip their toenails in bed?
Oh, yeah, dude. This. This, ladies and gentlemen, will make you feel very good about being single for Valentine's.
At least you're not planning Valentine's Day for a guy who already had another woman pregnant.
Yeah, I mean, that wasn't fun.
And. And that baby ended up having the same baby as one of my kids names. So single.
They named my. Their kid my daughter's name.
Yeah. Yeah. Planned Valentine's Day for that guy. And little did I know he already had some other woman knocked up, so that was great.
At least you're not doing that, ladies and gentlemen. You know, that's always a positive thing, because I really do love this man as a friend.
I planned Valentine's Day for a dude who had to borrow his mom's car to drive to my house.

[10:13] Oh, shit. I can't even edit it out.

[10:19] Oh, man. Oh, the most shocking one.
I planned Valentine's Day for a guy who actually went to jail for murder.
Oh, I didn't think you'd know that when I was thinking about it earlier. It was like.
And I've planned Valentines Day for someone who was murdered.
Dang, isn't that weird? When I really started thinking about it, I was like.
Oh, my gosh. Yeah, One of the guys was.
He was from this area. We met in this area.
And years and years later, I saw him on the news, and he had been arrested for murder. That's kind of crazy.
Yeah. Weird, right? So at least you're not saying a murderer, ladies.
At least you're not having to plan a dinner for a murderer.
That's a flex, right? I mean, I don't mean to. Yeah, for real.
You can definitely flex on that one. What?
What else? I mean, really? Like Valentine's Day? Yes, it's a commercial day, but.

[11:29] I mean, it's always nice to let people in your life know that you're you care about them.
And it's good to feel special on a day, whatever it is.
But then how do you keep yourself from, like, feeling some type of way about it as a single person?
Like, okay, so it's what you choose to focus on.
So if you're focusing on like, Oh, I'm alone this Valentine's Day doesn't look like I thought it would like you have the full power and capacity to make the day special.
Maybe it's just what you anticipated, Right? Right. But I think that's the case.
Even if you're married or even if you're in a relationship, like certain expectations aren't going to be met.
Yeah, like, I'm not kidding you. Some of the loneliest points in my life was when I was in a marriage, right? Or with like, that's some of the loneliest times in my life.
Or when you were planning a Valentine's Day for somebody who was never going to appreciate you the way like you knew deep down.
Right. Don't you think in most relationships we know when we should not be in them?
Absolutely. I mean, sometimes people for other reasons, like financial or for the kids or whatever the case may be, whatever insert, whatever excuse.
But coming from a family where my parents have been together forever.

[12:48] Like having that example really did set a foundation about love and expectations.
So I can't imagine being in a situation, well, I put my kids in that situation, right?
Obviously divorced. They didn't have that example of love.
Make it for the kids or, you know, make it for your pet.
Oh, I was auntie you. I plan a special date for me and Fluffy.
I think that that is a great idea.
Plan it for your pet.

[13:18] Yeah. Or just simply playing it for yourself. Take yourself out, maybe get a massage or like now it's not Valentine's Day right now, but I am going to take myself out to a really nice steak dinner tonight because I feel like I deserve it. Right?
I'm going to go out to dinner by myself like a nice dinner.
I'll have a steak That's probably going to cost me 40 bucks. Nice.
Yeah. I'm going to enjoy every bit of that by myself. I once planned a.

[13:46] Valentine's Day for a guy who was, say, shorter than Kevin Hart.
And his voice and his voice sounded like, Oh, the teacher from Ferris Bueller.
Oh, Mailer. Bueller.

[14:06] We went to a really nice restaurant. What's the nicest Valentine thing you ever had ever got?

[14:13] Uh. Either like it's such a commercialized thing and making a big deal about it.
But I really can't sit here and tell you, like the best Valentine's Day I ever had.
I can't even remember what I did for Valentine's Day last year.
Yeah, because I feel like kind of like if you're in a healthy and good relationship, I mean, I think it's good for, like, busy parents because they they make time for that day, right?
You know, if you're if you're in a relationship like where you're just keeping up with with everybody else, you're taking kids here and there and blah, blah, blah, it gives you an excuse, you know?
But I don't. I don't. I feel like every day is Valentine's Day with me and Silent Brad.

[14:57] Not every day, but I mean, I really can't. That's a really good point.
I don't remember one thing I've ever gotten for Valentine's Day, dude.
I know I've done flowers and teddy bears and chocolates and stuff like that.
I can tell you right now, simple gifts that you probably love, my Lord.
I'm not. You are in my. But.
No, I know that. What?

[15:28] What a slow jab. Your mouth not off.

[15:33] My gosh. Okay, fine. I'll do that. What?
I can't. Do you even have, like, a stand out story about, like, a bad Valentine's Day gone wrong?
Well, I mean, that one with a dude crying over his ex was pretty bad. That's pretty bad.
I honestly. That really did make me feel like shit because I liked the guy a lot.
And what am I doing, man? Like, this is not normal, right? Am I so lonely that I have to be with somebody Who.
That I have to have. Anyone doesn't even want to be with you. Yeah.

[16:09] Actually, I had stumbled upon a few different men who were still trying to get over their ex, you know, in my dating.
And so I got to a point where and I wish I would have gotten to this point a long time ago where you either you either want me and all of me and only me or you don't want me at all.
And I'm not going to be upset about moving on because I'm not going to sit here and tolerate a person who doesn't want me the way that I deserve to be treated.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, but don't you think you have to come to that realization and your time?
Oh, for sure. I mean, it took me it took me a while to get there because I would I would always try to make excuses for a person's behavior or something like that.
I would always try to make excuses for tolerating less than acceptable behavior. Mm hmm.
And most of the time, it's exactly what you think it is.
Yeah. Like, what's that saying? When somebody shows you who who they are, believe them the first time.
Yep. I mean, I think that's pretty real for dating.
Of course, I haven't dated it in a lot of years, but I'm just saying I know it's a struggle for so many people.
It makes them, like, so sad, and I just can't wrap my mind around that part of it. But maybe. Maybe those are people who don't even have people.

[17:26] It could be. I mean, don't get me wrong, I was very sad.
Like, I was actually in tears because I realized that I had to come to a point where I had to be okay with the idea that I might not be with somebody because I always I always saw myself with somebody.
I always felt like I was meant for someone.
And then when, like, stuff kept going south over and over and over and over again, I'm like, I really do need to make peace with the idea that I might be alone for the rest of my life. And that was.
I remember you saying, I think maybe I'm just not meant for anybody.
And I'm like, I think maybe you just keep finding the wrong freaking people and trying to make them into something that they're not.
I don't know. You just it's one of those things like you walk into it and it's puked everywhere, all over everything.
Yeah. You know, like, it's just everywhere.
So does that was that a constant reminder for you that you were single or.
No, because it was just red everywhere?

[18:24] A little bit. But at the same time, it's not it was not just Valentine's Day that I was thinking about stuff like that.
It was Christmas and all of the things.
Yeah. I mean, regular old Thursday.

[18:40] It was kind of when you're when you're single and you really don't want to be, but you just are.
You think about it all the time, regardless if it's Valentine's Day or not.
So but figuring out ways to make it easier and I think would be a great idea to and I would totally do this if I wasn't Food Hub.
But I have a couple of girlfriends I know that are single. We can go out and go take each other out on a great date, right? Right.
Like, there's nothing that says that it has to be like a romantic thing.
Like you can just be with somebody that you care about.
Yeah, Make sure they don't. If I was single, I think I would even enjoy doing something for someone else.
Same thing like you were saying. But even, like. Okay, you know what?
I don't have anybody to buy this for.
What if I give, you know, my sister or somebody else slide a gift card into their mailbox? Your neighbor's mailbox? Who's single? You know that?
Just anonymous, like those are. That's a great idea.
You are a depressed person. Like doing things for others. Like, it really does something to you on the inside. Yeah.

[19:47] I think it's why I stay doing stuff for others like it is my energy, because, you know, I might do that for some of my neighbors.
That's a good idea. It is a good idea because we do like just, you know, randomly put it in there and just, yeah, maybe maybe if you're feeling sad on Valentine's Day about being single, do something for somebody else that you know is single that would appreciate it.
Act of kindness. A random act of kindness that just says, like you're special to someone.
If you had a wedding on Valentine's Day, would it be all red and white and silver?

[20:24] Probably it probably. I'd probably have a bunch of, like, cupids as my centerpieces.
Oh, that would be so good.

[20:34] Too. Nothing's coming out of your mouth. Sorry. You're just.
I can't hear anything you're saying. Are you serious?
Okay, now I can. Sorry. Oh, I.

[20:46] Know. Like appetizer. Oh, I'm sorry. It's the calamari.
I love that this episode is going to cut you in and out of whatever you just said, because all it said was calamari and penis is all I heard.
So Jonna recommends calamari and penis, everyone.
Oh, dang it. Hold on. I'm putting my wife on. Yeah, put that wi fi on that t, mobile phone. You still have t mobile.

[21:11] Do you go book me out? Yes, I have T mobile mongoloid.
Oh, I keep telling her only drug dealers and strippers have t mobile, bro.
And Brad. Remember, Brad loved T-Mobile. I have no beef with it except for we had how many face time drops today. Well, so in all brick building in the middle of nowhere. Yeah.
Is going to happen like that is, if I had a Cupid centerpiece, I could hang calamari off his penis.

[21:43] That's so gross. You could have his penis be the calamari at their wedding.
And I would and I would be so unique and different.
I think you should strive for that with your third boyfriend.
Can I just tell you this really quick, funny story? Absolutely.
I love him so much. So he's been calling me in the morning because he gets off work at like 630 in the morning and that's about the time I'm getting ready.
And so I'm like getting ready, putting on my uniform. And he dad asked me, Babe, what would you do? 630 in the morning?
Like, what would you do if I was at work and had an accident and my wiener got chopped off? But my test is still there.

[22:26] And I'm just like, What do you mean? What would I do is like, would you still be with me? I'm like, Oh my gosh, you're so stupid.
I'm like, Of course I would. We could just trip each other.
Oh, my. Well, you could just scissor. Oh, you just scissor.

[22:40] Fine. Well, I think they have penis implants.
Well, that's what he said. He's like, he would want to invent, like, a penis implant or something. I mean, what's what about the Bobbitt guy? I don't know.
I don't know if he's got feeling or not. Oh, I bet he does. Dude, you'd have to reconstruct the whole thing. How else would he even pee?
Nerves once they've been severed? I mean, I don't know. I don't know if they are going to reconnect or not. It depends on how long it was. Detach, probably.
Oh, well, he didn't have his penis. She threw it out the window, didn't she?
Yeah, she threw that stuff around the car window. Yeah, she did.
Is she still in jail? Where Lorena at these days?
He's alive, so she shouldn't be.
Yeah, she. I don't know. That was a long, long, long time ago.
I wonder if the next generation knows that story. You know what I mean?
Like, I felt like it was just a household name in our in our generation. Like you knew who?
Don't make me Lorena Bobbitt, your ass. That meant, like, don't make me chop your dick off.

[23:42] Right, Right. I wonder.
Food. You're what? Make your wiener buzzard food.

[23:56] Oh, suck on this. The buzzard.

[24:05] Oh, shoot. Speaking of finding your love, this is kind of funny.
Like last night, I went out with my kids, and two of my. Two of my kids are gay.
And so these two. And this is relevant. That's a relevant fact to the story.
So I talked them in to go into this bluegrass band with me because I didn't want to go by myself, but I really wanted to go check it out.
And so neither one of them were busy last night. So my daughter and her girlfriend and then one of our sons went with me.
He ended up coming up and meeting us out. She was on his app swiping for him.
Grinder You know, I don't think gay people really actually use Grinder.
I don't think it's a thing my kid never did.
He's classier than Grinder. Don't don't you dare put him in that UN classification.
My ex husband had Grinder.

[25:05] Why does it show that I'm not Oh, any pride. Did it just because it was funny and you were like, It is funny. Now let me help you swipe.
But now it's like if I'm going through a phone, I know I grinder's on his phone.
Right, Right. Yeah. Yeah. Live and learn.
But so they were talking about how hard it is to find that they're slim pickings for the lesbians and the gays in this area.
And I, they both had to be, like, crying, laughing about it.
Like the stuff that was coming out of our son's mouth about it.
Oh, he had me laughing so hard. He was like, No, it's just like they're just not around. And then we were like, You need. And then he then he says, then he says something about maybe I'm just too rude.
And, you know, my daughter, who was very outspoken, looks at him and she's like, You think?
And he's like, Well, teach me how to be nicer so I can find someone nice.
So is it slim pickings or is it nice? Like, where do you meet people when you're when you're single?
For a gay kid who's 21? You know what I mean? Like, I don't know.
There used to be a gay bar in town. I remember.
I feel like they should bring back the gay bar in Kokomo. Oh, my gosh. That's kind of brilliant.
Yeah. It was so fun. Or have a gay bar night.

[26:25] Right? Well, I mean, other than like drag.
Drag, because drag is not the same. No, drag is not the same because most single or straight people or straight people are comfortable with drag even, You know what I mean?
Yeah. Unless you're a total weirdo and you're like, Oh, not me.
And I'm about like, it's entertainment, man.
Right. Oh, my gosh. That's a good idea. Maybe we should like.

[26:51] You know, we have some friends who who owns own bars. If you all are listening to this, you should consider a.

[27:00] Oh, What? My gosh. We should host a gay like. Speed dating night.
Oh, yeah. Because it's not like there aren't any in. I mean, we live in a town of 75,000 people.
Right. It's not. But, I mean, it feels tiny when you've grown up here and you know everybody, right? Because like Brad always says, this is the smallest, biggest town he's ever been in.
You know, like where he lived right outside St Louis before he moved here.
He was like, Yeah, you knew people, but you didn't know people.
Like you all know people.
Yeah. But maybe a speed dating thing would be fun. Did you ever do that when you were single? Oh.

[27:43] See. Why don't people capitalize on the singles when it comes to Valentine's Day? Like, shouldn't we start trying to bring people together in love?
I mean, sometimes sometimes it ain't all that's meant to be, you know? I'm saying, Yeah, that's true.

[28:01] Yes, it is, but. But dating can be fun if you do it the right way.
And when you said, Dude, I ever speed date, well, I kind of turned my online dating into a speed date because I knew how to weed them suckers out quicker than anything as a single.
To just remember. At least you're not dating someone.

[28:25] Who was a murderer or who dresses in your panties or it's just flat out crusty.
Beats you crusty, dusty, like, get away, man. Like, it's okay.
Life is lonely. We know. But, man.
Cherish your peace. Find your peace on Valentine's Day and love it.

[28:43] I agree. Even if you're in a not a good relationship or a relationship, find your peace in the fact that Valentine's Day is not going to and love in general is not going to look the same.
It's not a love is not a what?
What am I what word am I looking for? Like a blanket. Love looks different for, everybody, like for everyone.
And I think that the more we start to vocalize and be at peace with that, I think everyone will find themselves. Tell me if I'm wrong, Jonah, Comparing your love story to someone else's.
Oh, whether it is single or couple.
And I think that that can ruin your entire relationship and your self-love. Really?
Oh, absolutely. Jordan and I were actually just talking about that because he and I obviously we've been in relationships before, We've been married before.
And we we were asking ourselves yesterday, are we moving too fast or are we moving things along that in an unacceptable manner?
And he and I both 100% feel like we're not we both 100% feel like we know what we're looking for.
We know what we're not looking for, and we feel like we've found something special.
But it's when we start thinking about what other people think about us is when we start.

[30:03] Little bits of doubt like, Oh, maybe we are moving too fast, or maybe we're doing this or that.
It's not because that's how we feel. It's because how we think other people will feel. Yeah. Yeah.
We're making it a point just to have a relationship for just the two of us and not consider what that is to our exes and what that looks like to our family and what that looks like to our friends.
Like, obviously, his kids are comfortable with me. My kids are comfortable with him.
If there was an issue with our kids, that would be one thing because there they would be directly living with us.
But like his family isn't paying his bills. My family's not paying my bills.
At what point you're an adult, Do you stop listening to other people, try to dictate your life well and stop comparing your life to everyone else and what they did.
And I think one of the biggest things, like I look at my second marriage in particular, because really that was 12 years. And, you know, I look at that and think, I know I totally got married because I thought it was what I was supposed to do.
Like I thought it would just give everybody else peace and like.

[31:08] You know what I mean? And so when I met Brad, it was basically like I was like, I really do not care what any of you think I am for the first time in my life, going to make a relationship, a decision about my relationship.
And it be all me, all my fault, you know? And I mean, we lucked out. We did.
But, you know, we did jump fast and we so I think you're so right with your new relationship is like even when people ask me about you guys, I'm always like, ultimately, it doesn't matter what I think.
I like the guy and it does not matter Like we're going to figure it out.
No matter what happens, no matter what comes, I'm going to be there for.
It doesn't matter. It's just like the single friend who date chronically dates.

[31:55] There's no difference in the worry that you feel for that person or the single friend who never leaves their home.
I think that comparison is I think it's a thief of joy coming from somebody who hasn't really been single a majority of her life. I mean, I've had stints and I made them count. Right?
But but like, I think it's just really important that, you know, you're you're absolutely right to find your peace and focus whether you're single or in a relationship on that person and on you.
You look ugly with your hair like that. No. Maybe you should get bangs.
Sorry. She's doing weird shit on the iPhone and she knows I have ad, so I'm like, keep looking away, trying to make sure that I stay on trend.
So much better to not confuse all you people with my random ass things.
You're ruining it.
You so much.

[32:53] I just don't want. I just don't want you. What? No matter what situation you're in.
Broad minded is here for you. If you're lonely.
On Valentine's Day. Get over it. I'm just kidding.

[33:09] Back on one of our old timers class. Right? Just put on another podcast laugh.
Or you could do make a list of it of the all the, you know, like Jonah and I did. That is at least you aren't making Valentine's dinner for.
And remind yourself of how freaking far you have come my friends.

[33:35] Because single is sometimes better than miserable.
And I think it was my 40th birthday.
I can no longer accept these types of things in my life. Yeah.

[33:46] You know, I have eliminated the majority of the men that I was allowing myself to date.
Would never happen anymore. Yeah. Yeah.
Well, I'm happy for you that you have somebody to celebrate with this year.
And all of you out there do to practice self-love and self care.
Also, I don't know if I'm sure I probably did. Thank you, but if I didn't, thank you.
Thank you for the last couple of years. Always making me feel special and invited on Valentine's Day and sharing that day with me when you didn't have to.
Oh, well, I love the shit out of you. And unfortunately, my husband knows I'm just going to do what I'm going to do when it comes to people I love.
And it's not that I love him less.
I mean, like, let me just say, we did celebrate, but I also felt like it would be like the 13th or the 12th.

[34:42] Yeah. What if then the friends and the kids come over on the 14th?
I feel like it's a broad, like it's just about love for each other.
So celebrate your friends. Celebrate yourself, love people and yeah, make your mom and dad dinner shit if they're still together or whatever, man, there's so many things that we have to.
We have to constantly remind ourselves that life is so much about perspective, and so is love, really. Even if you only have yourself to love.
Love yourself. Right. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
Hey. All right. Bye Bye. So.
