Re: Dear __________ Friday
Dear Stop and Shop cashier,
When a woman goes through your line and is buying a personal item, such as a pregnancy test, it is in bad taste to look at her, laugh, and ask what result she's hoping for. When, completely uncomfortable and put on the spot, she answers you, do not tell her the story of the 16 year old girl that cried when you asked her what she wanted and she came back to tell you that she got a positive. And when the 34 year old woman whom you asked tells you that since she's not 16 and has been trying for sometime to get pregnant and has lost a baby, snatches her bag and storms out, please take this as a sign to NOT ask women about their personal items. Do your job, ring up their items and leave your customers alone. I realize you're just a kid and really may not know any better, but hopefully you understand now. A woman's uterus is a personal thing and I don't know anyone who would discuss it with a pimple faced teenage cashier.
Wow! My jaw is hanging open. You handled it much better than me. I would have just *** slapped her. Sorry she put you through that. ((hugs))
Dear Life,
Cut me some freaking slack huh? I could use a little break here.
Chill the F out already

Dear Brain-
Think of a bday gift for your Dad, his bday is today and you have nothing.
Ahhhh
Dear thrift stores,
I would appreciate it in my search this weekend for 15 different tea cups that you comply. I know it is odd to want 15 different, single tea cups but that is what I want. I do not need a set of 4, 6, 8, or even 12 of the same ones. I have dozens of those.
Emme and I will be out today and tomorrow searching for the tea cups for SIL's baby shower next weekend. Sunday I want to put them in bags and tie them so all I have left to do is the food and decorate a little.
Thank you,
Frantic & Desperate Baby Shower Hostess
Jesus. *the biggest of hugs*

Dear hot weather,
GO AWAY!
Holy fvcking cow! Wth?
Dear dh's job: Can you please stop screwing with him and go back to being a normal, reliable, uneventful job? We like days off and lack of drama, please.
Dear God: Please, please, please don't let FIL's tests turn up anything bad, please.
Dear co-worker: Yes, I left at 4:15 p.m. because I came in early at 8:15 a.m. You don't need to ask me stupid questions that imply I'm slacking because I don't work the same hours you do.
Dear Non Nestie and Bumpie Bay Area Drivers:
Holy FVCK. Do you always drive like ass hats? I am gone for a week and we get into almost three accidents on the way home b/c a)you are on your cell phone b) you can't signal c) you can't merge or d)all of the above?
Remind me again why I live here?!
