WTF Wednesday
Open letters? Let me know if you want to stop these. I know yesterday's was sort of a bust.
Dear Dad,
I hope your surgery goes okay today. I can't wait to see you tonight.
Love you,
Baystate
Dear H,
I am so SO glad we are communicating so much better lately. I love you so much!
Love,
Baystate
Dear Idiots Who Can't Be Bothered To Check The Internet,
Our Mass times today are 12:15 and 7:00 PM. I can't believe I will spend the ENTIRE day repeating that sentence to you. Really. Check the internet. MUCH easier!
Get lost,
Baystate

Re: WTF Wednesday
Dear Steph,
I hope you don't think that I'm a bigoted a-hole because of how I worded my question in the TMI Tuesday post. I didn't check the post again until this morning, so I just replied now. GLBT rights are something that I feel very strongly about, and I'm disappointed (w/myself) that something I said made people think otherwise about me.
Sincerely, tpender13
I love open letter day
Dear old job... Do yourself. I'm over you, and DO NOT want to be here for the next 2.5 days. That's right, I'm alreayd counting today as halfway gone, and I've only been here an hour. I'm done - so done. ~Me
Dear DH... I'm really going to miss you when you leave for 2 months. I wish we could fast forward to the day you get home... which I don't even know when will be because this dumb job is so up in the air. Love, your loving wife
Dear tpender,
I wasn't around for yesterday's post, but just caught up... I see your point. I think a lot of times people assume someone means the worst, but I for one get what you were getting at.
~Sometimes equally foot-in-mouthed Nestie
Don't really have an open letter but am lurking and wanted to say I know how you feel angie. I'm so not having fun at work lately. And I've stayed out of that other post, but think you're alright tpender. No worries.
And thanks bay, for trying to get things moving on this board! I'm not coming up with any clever posts, but love to chat with you ladies.
Married 11/6/10
Both of these. I chose to read for intent, not syntax, and as someone who deals A LOT with other cultures, I can just say it happens to all of us. And thanks Bay!
Dear DH,
Last weekend you went to e memorial, a baby shower, and my brother's birthday party. I'm not sure which was the most painful, but I know you probably didn't want to go to any of them. So, I want you to know that I truly appreciate it, but it doesn't let you off the hook for Easter mass.
Your Wife (who totally knows your negotiating techniques)
Dear New Chick in Pilates Class,
Um, you do NOT need to stand that close. There's plenty of space. I'm going to move my limbs, and I don't want to kick you. And it's just a bit creepy how you slowly move closer and closer during the hour and a half. Let me plie without invading my personal space.
The girl whose dirty looks you were ignoring
Dear puppy,
Thank you for falling asleep during my meeting this afternoon. I guess that hour walk during lunch made you very tired. Also, I guess I should stop calling you puppy since you are a year and a half. Probably not going to happen since you'll always be a puppy to me!
Mommy
Dear DH,
Hope everything at your job offsite is going well! I do wish you'd stop stressing about every little thing work related though. It gets exhausting at times.
Me
Dear weather,
Please don't rain anymore tonight and tomorrow. I'm not looking forward to it and dealing with the potential rain in our basement. And wet/dry vac - where are you hiding?
Frustrated homeowner
Dear H,
I just wish you would cook dinner for once - I don't care if it is pancakes! Just something...
Love your wife
This... my DH rarely cooks, but he makes a mean stir fry that I'd really love right now.. or his not so great spaghetti.. or even if he heated up leftovers for us, that'd be great... but no.. he's never hungry when I get home... blegh!
Dear Roxy baby (my kitty),
thank you for finally starting to settle down and cuddling with me these past few days. I think I really needed cuddle time from your warm fuzzy self. I think our cleaner house is almost taming you. I cannot wait for you to be docile and calm. You're my beautiful 1 year old kitty and yes, you were my first "real" baby I could call my own. (The rest were my parents animals, etc.)
Your loving momma
Dear Google,
thank you for showing me my search results confirming that we have elective ultrasound locations in order to determine the gender earlier than 21 weeks for only $75!!! WOOHOO... party time over here!
Excited and anticipated momma!
