Happy Valentines Day, everybody! Try to enjoy yourself, whether you’re alone or not, and remember, there’s always beer.

There’s a Valentines Day Pop-up Shop on 1187 Howell Mill Road that has all sorts of hand-made V-Day gifts for your last-minute emergencies, open from 9:30am-6pm.

There are LOTS of food and drink specials going on today!

Park Bar & SkyView are doing a promotion downtown where if you buy a ticket to ride the SkyView Ferris wheel you can trade in your ticket stub at Park Bar for a free cup of boozy hot cocoa!

Cypress Street Pint & Plate are having a Solo (Cup) Valentines Day Party at 8pm, $1 PBR and $2 Sweetwater IPA!

El Taco is hosting “Stupid Cupid Night,” featuring ‘unromantic food and cocktail specials inspired by the lack of love that is sure to be in the room.’

Sidebar downtown is selling half-off appetizers after 4pm for people on their own. (Caution that Sidebar is a miserable smokey dive on a regular day, I can’t even imagine it on a lonely Valentines day…)

Dad’s Garage is doing a Valentines/Anti-Valentines Improv show; at 8 the improv will be Valentines themed, and then at 10:30 it will be anti-valentines. $25 cover.

The High Museum of Art is playing host to live music and “Love and Romance Art Tours” at 6pm, there will also be appetizers and a cash bar.

The Metroplex at 1959 Metropolitan Pkwy is throwing their 5th Annual B My Furry Valentine Party, and it’s exactly what it sounds like. $30 cover

Paris on Ponce’s 6th Annual Valentine’s Event is at 7:30 and 10pm, tickets are $45 but it’s “a wild ride of Burlesque, Female Impersonation and Comedy, mischief and general hilarity. All hosted by Atlanta’s Camp Comedy Queen Mary Edith Pitts”

Hello Ocho are playing a valentines day show at The Earl at 10pm, they’re a local indie pop band and the guys who own the Mammal Gallery downtown. $7 cover.

Cousin Dan is at the Star Bar with others, $7 cover.

Trey Anastasio from Phish is playing at the newly-reopened Tabernacle, tickets are $40 and probably sold out.

Emo Philips is still at the Laughing Skull Lounge, two shows today at 7:30 and 10, tickets are around $20.

Australian comedian Jim Jeffries is doing two shows tonight at the Variety Playhouse, not for the faint of heart. It’s also his birthday today, maybe he’ll do an extra special birthday show! Tickets are $38 at the door. (Thanks to /u/Johnny0 for pointing this one out!)

There’s also all the usual Friday stuff, although Queso King will sadly not be at The Lawrence this week due to the weather.
