Strange Thought.
I was thinking about Valentine's Day... Yeah it's strange. Well, what brought it to mind was the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre in 1929, which we discussed today in class. Wonder how we got to having Valentine's Day. Why can't we call it Winter Thanksgiving like in Harvest Moon? 'Cept, Winter Thanksgiving I believe it's the girl giving the guy a gift, then the Spring Thanksgiving the guy gives the girl something. I think there's a custom simular to that in Japan as well.
Mr. Yelton said his Farmer's Almanac predicts the winter to be record-breakingly cold but the moisture to be below normal. So, we'll just freeze our asses off without the snow. Damn.
