Re: Open Letter
Dear Amazing Associate,
Thank you so incredibly much for randomly requesting to take my Friday this week and allowing me to have the entire day off for NYE. It means the world to me.
Sincerely,
Tomorrow is My Friday
Dear OB/GYN,
I understand there are emergencies that call you to the hospital (and I hope your patient is all right!) but I psyched myself up for our visit today - and my biopsy - and now I have to wait until tomorrow, giving me a whole extra night to think about it. Bleh. Oh, and I didn't bring lunch today because I thought I'd eat leftovers at home afterward so now I'm hungry on top of it.
Signed,
Just another hoo-ha
Dear husband's friends,
I'm mostly kidding, but I just thought it was an odd choice, or maybe a regift.Thanks again! I'll think of you when I'm eating my Christmas gift bananas, haha.
Thank you for thinking of me and finally getting me a gift this year (after several awkward years where I sat there like an idiot during our exchange) but I'm not sure how to take the Stop and Shop gift card. Are you saying that I clearly like to eat? Are you suggesting we go out too much and maybe I should cook more? Are you implying we're too poor to buy groceries?
Cheers,
Your best friend's wife
Dear work/lab,
Sorry for accomplishing so little this week... yep, things don't look good for tomorrow either since it's really a "Friday". I'll try harder next week, I promise.
Dear paycheck,
You can't come soon enough this week.
Dear Husband,
We are lucky we are able to only have one car and share the commute to work without much issue. However, when you insist on being to work at 7:30am, but it's 7:20 and you're just standing there as I sprint across the house trying to make sure animals are fed/watered/relieved, coffee's made, lunches are packed, and all things dog-chewable are off the floors, I'm going to be a little irritated. Please adjust your routine accordingly.
Dear Basement
Some how make yourself bigger, there is just not enough room for storage. Our organizing efforts today have somehow left you looking more cluttered.
Dear Kind Hearted Dog Lovers
Someone please go adopt Comet from the Humane Society. My heart is torn apart over the fact that we can't take him. He's had a rough life so far and deserves a good home for his remaining years.
Dear Older Sister
When I asked for your help planning our sister's baby shower, I wanted help, not apathy. I guess I will do it myself. Also when I told you the kids were spending the night tonight I meant that they would sleep over, why you had to confirm this with me four times I don't know. If they are not packed when I come to pick them up I may tear out my hair.
Dear Kids of Older Sister,
You two are so freaking adorable and I can't wait for our sleepover tonight!
Dear Evil Co-worker that hates me,
I didn't do anything to make you hate me and would appreciate it if you could at least try to be nice. I really dislike you also but I can at least pretend. I don't want to train you tomorrow either, lets just try to make this as painless as possible.
Sincerely,
"Hoity-Toity ***" (your words, not mine)
Dear New Car,
I can't wait to get you tomorrow!!! I really love the "loner" car that I am driving right now so you better be just as awesome!
Love,
Your new Mommy
Dear Jason,
Just because you are working and I am currently not (new job starts next week I believe, just waiting for the drug test/finger prints to come back) doesn't mean I have to run all of your errands. You are a big boy and get a lunch break, you also don't have to be at work until 10am, so if you need to go to the bank or pick up your prescription, you can do it. Don't assign me tasks at the beginning of the day. While I was working and you were not, I still did the majority of this kind of stuff, so get off your high horse.
Dear Friend,
I am so happy you are coming to our NYE party and am fine with you bringing two friends; however, you wanting to come at 4pm when everyone else is coming at 9pm is obnoxious. I have stuff to do prior to people coming, and entertaining you and your friends isn't on my list. I am going to nicely tell you no, to come later, FYI.
Dear Mom,
Please stop calling me to complain about my younger sister and her boyfriend. She's 19 years old, she's going to do what she wants because she's in that "I know everything about everything" stage, so just let her do her thing and she'll eventually figure out that they need to grow up or not be together. You telling her that you don't want her boyfriend over all the time is only going to push her towards him more at this point.
Dear Family Member,
We heard you're pregnant. I know we should wish you well, but honestly I'm jealous.
Dear Me,
Yes I'm writing to myself...you shouldn't be jealous about someone being pregnant since you and hubby are on the fence about kids as it is.
Dear Family,
If you ask us one more time about having kids I'm going to scream. Just because we're getting older, are married, and everyone else seems to be doing it doesn't mean we have to.
**Sorry...babies are everywhere it seems and I can't escape. It's on the brain a bit.**
Dear clock,
Please jump forward to 5 o'clock.
Dear DH's 2nd job,
Please let Steve off before midnight on Friday... I really want to spend our first NYE as a married couple together. I will be really pissed if I am sitting at home by myself tomorrow night at midnight.
Dear tummy,
WTF? You have been upset and hurting me for like 3 weeks now... please stop. And HOW did you manage to smuggle in a knife? Because it feels like you are stabbing me.
Love,
Megan
Dear Bride to be,
I'd greatly appreciate if it you'd finally give me your guest list for your shower. That we have to have the first weekend in March because your cousin is getting married and cornered your mom into picking a date.
Dear Bride to be's mom,
It'd be really great if you could tell me just what low to mid low budget means. Also if you could share with the rest of us (granted it's only me & her fsil in the bparty) where you've checked out prices for.
Thanks,
Soon to be insane MoH

Dear Ahmed
Thank you sooooo very much for making dinner yesterday, and for making it tonight. I really really appreciate it. It would be amazing, if when i got home from work today the apartment was clean. I know i helped making the mess by baking last night, but it would be amazing...just saying
loving wife
Dear Southwest
you lost my bags again, third time in a row. At least this time it was only one bag. Please stop sucking. I still like u as an airline, but i think Ahmed is fed up.
Dear tummy
You have grown a bit recently, and i won't have that. Be prepared to go away
Dear 'Friend'
I know that you like to see your family over break, but two of us were only in town for a few days. You refused to get hang out either of the two times we asked you due to wanting to spend time with your family (who all live in town). However, once we were out of town and our other friend was in town with her baby you suddenly had no plans...thats cool. You could have just stopped by and saw us for a half hour, just saying
