Dear Dad:
You blow my mind...and not in a good way. First off, COPD IS caused by cigarette smoking, so stop trying to tell me that because you have that, and not lung cancer, that you can keep smoking. I'm not a fuckingmoron...are you? You know, with my luck, I'll be the one who ends up with lung cancer. I've never smoked a damn cigarette in my life but I had to breathe in the pack a day habit you and Mom both had the whole 22 years I lived in your house.
Secondly, take some Pepto for the verbal diarrhea. Just because you're a miserable pr!ck who wishes he were dead doesn't mean you have the right to make comments like that. As much as I'm angry that Mom stopped taking care of herself, which led to her death, I do not think she did it with the sole purpose TO die. Do you really think that's what she wanted? I was pregnant for fucksake...she was excited beyond belief. She did not want to die. So saying that she had the "right idea" stung. FUCKINGSTUNG! You want to be dead so badly....not on my watch. I'd rather you cut ties with me all together than say bullsh!t like that in front of me and my children and purposely do sh!t you know will kill you. Tristan and Melinda will never know the love of my mother...you're ALIVE and they don't even know the love of my father.
I'm tired of your sh!t! Move away already. NH isn't far enough.

Dear Nesties:

Dear Germs -
GO AWAY NOW. This whole "kids starting new daycare" sickness thing is getting old fast. I'm tired, I have work to do, 2 kids to take care of... and I just want to go to bed. Stop!

Dear new roommate -
We are nice people, and we would never say no to a friend in need. But once you get settled tomorrow, get off your a$$ and find a job, and realize you might need to move into a roommate situation in the city and get working on getting out of my house. You are a nice guy but I like my personal space. Plus I work from home, and I just settled into a rhythm that will now be disrupted. I'm sorry about your financial situation right now, but ours sucks just as badly and we have a lot more to worry about than where our TV will go as we move into someone else's cushy house. Now my poor parents are coming in 2 weeks and what, do they sleep on the sofa bed now that you're in the guest room? My house is not big enough for this. Couldn't you have just called one of your friends in the city and crashed on someone's sofa and found a storage unit there? I hate that we are the go-to people for such situations. I've had a Kato in my house before, I'm all set with doing this again. And then that makes me feel like a bad person for saying it. I can't win.
- happy to help but this just is not the time
Dear new work arrangement -
I hope this is a good thing. I'm nervous and excited, and not entirely sure it's actually what I want but it's all I have right now so I guess I have to go with it.
- Anxiously optimistic
Dear Husband of mine -
I feel like absolute crap. Why when you are sick do you get to sleep in and recover for 2 days but I don't. This sucks a$$. And I can't take sick days on my work days b/c I don't get paid time off and we can't afford for me to not work on those days when the kids are at school. Between breastfeeding Maddy and my work situation, I'm screwed and it's so not fair. Please, please listen to me when I honestly mean I want to clean some this weekend. The house is a mess and it needs to be cleaned. I have a clingy 11 month old who doesn't let me do much on Tues & Wed and I work the other days too. I feel like we've lost our partnership lately, and we need that back.

Dear MIL,
I AM SO OVER YOU. This is my baby-you don't have the right to give her things (like f**king frosting) without my permission and if you do give her something DON'T LIE TO ME ABOUT IT!!!!! You've had 3 of your own babies-let me enjoy mine and respect that I am the mother (MEEEE, not you).
Your DIL
Dear Liza's ears,
Please don't be infected. Please let this be a fever for no reason.
