Ah, Valentine’s Day.

A holiday first created by the Christian Saint, Valentine, who was imprisoned and sent the first “valentine” to the daughter of his jailer.

And to honor this great saint, we now have to get chocolate, flowers and jewelry for our romantic partners, if we have one.

It seems like the people who love Valentine’s Day are the people who are in a successful relationship or any young children who are excited about getting a ton of candy.

For us single people out there, Valentine’s Day is just a huge reminder that we can’t find somebody to love us. But instead of moping around and complaining, some people have found new ways to deal with this day.

Many people buy themselves gifts or go to singles parties.

Hell, some people even change the name of the day, the most common being “Single Awareness Day.”

While I enjoy that title and the acronym that comes with it, I prefer to refer to Valentine’s Day as a different title.

Since I am a huge fan of all things Tina Fey, I refer to February 14 as “Anna Howard Shaw Day.” This was the name of a Valentine’s Day episode in the fourth season of 30 Rock.

Liz gets the name from the February 14^th birthday of women’s civil rights leader, Anna Howard Shaw. She also decides to get a root canal, but in typical Liz Lemon fashion, she has no one to drive her home and hallucinates that her former boyfriends have come to see her.

Classic.

The other two plots include Jack meeting a potential love interest who is similar to him, and Jenna being worried that her stalker has stopped stalking her, trying to win him back. If you have not seen this episode, you are missing out. If you haven’t seen 30 Rock or anything by Tina Fey, you are seriously missing out.

Now, what is this perpetually single, and pretty attractive woman doing for "Anna Howard Shaw Day" you may ask?

Side Note: I’m writing this on the 14 at 8:52 a.m., but this will likely be published after the 14.

Right now, I am currently listening to the Survivor With All The Fixins podcast, which is about the messed up lives of former reality stars, and the horrible dating life of one of the hosts, Corinne Kaplan from Survivor: Gabon. (She has the weirdest dating life; you’d think it’s from an SNL skit).

Later, I plan on writing a bunch of things for school and might switch my podcast choice to either the recent episodes of LadyGang and Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me.

I will follow up with you guys in the comments on what I actually did on "Anna Howard Shaw Day." I want you to tell me what you referred to this particular 14^th of February as. Valentine’s Day? St. Valentine’s Day? (Another great Valentine’s Day episode of 30 Rock, by the way). Ash Wednesday? Singles Awareness Day? And tell me how you spent the day in the comments below!

For now, so I don't sound completely bitter, I leave you with a little bit of love, literally.
