When you get right down to it…

…I’m still just a sap.

Sure, I may get all cynical and Bitter McBitterson on this blog, and with my friends. But in my heart of hearts, I’m still a romantic.

What I was going to write about, but forgot: Does anyone but me think that Definitely, Maybe looks adorable? Yeah…didn’t think so. I know that a rom-com starring Ryan Reynolds (who I’m not sure I can see as anything but Van Wilder) doesn’t exactly scream Academy Award. But something about the preview just makes me smile. It’s so…optimistic.

And I’m not being sarcastic when I say that it’s ok that I will be watching that movie, if at all, with girlfriends and not dragging a guy to see it with me. It’s ok that I will be spending Valentines Day weekend (when, of course, the movie comes out) with my parents, who will be visiting. It’s even ok that the last and perhaps only person to really love me in my life was my ex-fiance who I broke up with almost a year 1/2 ago. Because under all the cynicism and humor and bad dating experiences, I guess I must still have hope.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t still be so damn sappy.
