Re: Open Letters
Dear co-workers/employees,
Grow the hell up! Your stupid drama between each other is just ridiculous. I shouldn't have three grown women running to me the second I walk in the door to complain/rat out/talk shit about the other ones. I want to fire you all and now you're just helping me add more reasons to my list.
Sincerely
Your boss who hopes you get hit by a car
Dear Ultrasound Tech,
You have a vagina so you know how they work...so please stop pushing that damn wand as hard as you can to the left and the right. I understand that my ovaries like to hide but there are better ways to help find them other than trying to burst through my sides.
Sincerely,
A patient who is very tempted to kick you next time you do it
How in the hell are you saving the environment by running the air down to 65* every day?! I don't like dressing for winter in the summer and dressing for winter in the winter when it's still 65* in here. Ridiculous!!
Sincerely,
Frozen! (And not the cute Disney movie kind of frozen, the under a blanket with two sweaters on and a heater running under my desk kind of frozen).
No bullshit this week, please.
Sincerely,
Employee heading to the UK for 2 weeks on Sunday
my read shelf:
Please get here sooner rather than later.
Sincerely,
My grumbling stomach

I typed out a long rant, just to realize it can all be summed up with this: I can not effing wait to walk out of here and never come back.
No love,
3ish months to go.
Dear auto correct,
Sometimes you have perfect timing. Changing 'paid' to 'laid' in my rant about my co-workers simply made my day.
It almost makes up for the rest of the time when you have your head stuck up your arse.

After 2 years of TTC, lots of tests, and a Hysteroscopy/Laparoscopy to remove several polyps,

Dear AF - Would you please just hurry up and come already? Seriously... This dragging it out business is for the birds.
Dear DFW area - DH and I hand washed our cars on Sunday afternoon. You're welcome for the rain yesterday and the rain that is supposed to come this week.
In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!
T-TTC since Dec 2008. PCOS/nonexistant cycles(anovulation) and endo. HSG in '10 revealed both tubes blocked. Lap surgery in Dec '10 to correct. Failed Clomid/IUI and injectable(Bravelle)/IUI cycles so far.
You have free reign to make any appearance in the privacy of our home that you want but I would greatly appreciate it if you would please contain yourselves when I am at the park walking! There are lots of people here that I don't want to introduce you to!
Love always,
Me
Dear Uterus,
I've pretty much given up on you working correctly but seriously...could I at least have 2 similar cycles in a row? The guessing game lost its thrill after the first month off BCP. Thanks bunches!
