Re: Open Letter Tuesday
Dear Free Highlights on Thursday,
Please don't look too bad.
I know it's for the student at Bumble and Bumble to learn how to do it, but PLEASE look okay!! I keep saying that it's just hair and i can chop it off, but i don't want to. I need my hair for buns for dance class!! So...please.
Always, slightly anxious blond hair

Finally! A Married Bio!!
Meg, I've been to Bumble and Bumble twice, once for a haircut and once for hair straightening, and they did a very good job!
Dearest mother-in-law,
We appreciate you buying our daughter such a fancy generous present for her birthday, but for the love of god, please listen next time I tell you (directly, not in passing or to someone else in your presence) that we, as her parents, were planning to buy her that exact item. And I highly doubt you looked around everywhere and did the research on ratings and whatnot.
Sincerely, your very annoyed and upset daughter-in-law
Dearest self,
Please get over yourself quickly and quit complaining about your MIL buying something for your kid. Say thanks, move on, and buy something else for your kid, mmkay? You're acting quite childishly about the whole situation.
Much appreciated, conflicted over mother-in-law (as usual)

Dear Sammi:
Are you trying to give mommy a heart attack? You escaped through the door last night and stayed out till 6am despite my repeated calls etc. all night. Don't you remember what happened last year? You almost lost your tail and your life out there? Please for mommy's sake, stay indoors. Don't be tempted by the tall grass at the back of the house
or the neighbor's cat's luring purrs or the butterflies. Be strong, moomfkee. I know you now have health insurance but I am still broke from last year's event. 
Love,
Your non furry mom

lawby...mine's about a cat too!
dear 8 year old who lives in the building behind us,
that is a feral cat on your roof and fire escape. he is stuck and can't figure out how to get down. his name is NOT whiskers, and all of us in this building would appreciate if you would stop throwing baloney out your window and incessantly yelling "WHISKERS! PSSSSSSSSSS!" at the top of your pre-pubescent lungs. three days of this is enough, please and thank you.
sincerely,
annoyed in 4B
