Ingrid Michaelson says it better than I ever could, so I’ll let her say it.

WARNING: Clowns in video.

Despite my moodiness, depression, jealousy, snarkiness, sarcasm, and a million other annoying or down-right mean things I do, you’ve taken me the way I am. You were there when I had surgery (which wasn’t so long ago), and you took care of me when I was in pain, and there’s no way I could ever repay you for that.

Kristen, to say I’m happy about the way things have gone would be the century’s greatest understatement, and here’s to their continuance. You introduced me to this song, and here I am, shoveling it back like I’m new and original and witty, but nevertheless, the words ring still true.

Happy Valentines Day, everyone. But especially Kristen.
