Dear People,
I have a board meeting scheduled on my calendar. This means you should not schedule anything on top of it. Board Meeting= muy importante. Arguably more important than anything else that I have to do. So stop scheduling on top of it!
Vet,
I am pissed the heck off at you. You need to monitor the pups coming out of sedation, especially if they may be numbed and not able to feel things. Stitches in a dog's tongue= especially not cool.
Stand up for something you believe in.

Re: Dear...
Dear Weather,
Either snow, or dont. Don't look and smell like you're going to and then just remain cloudy and frigid for nothing. Jerk weather.

Dear week,
Please move faster. I'm ready for Friday.
Dear supervisor,
As much as I'm not really a fan of you, having our little Christmas GTG catered is awesome. It means there was one less thing for me to do this week, and I sure as helll didn't have time to make something for a potluck. Thanks for making room in the budget for this. Might seem small, but we get pretty little appreciation these days. The fact that you're actually willing to spend some money on us is kind of cool. I still don't really like you, but you're one step closer.
H's work,
Yes, I do in fact think it is weird to have a departmental potluck but tell the men not to bring anything because you know they can't cook. My H can cook, and cooked for himself for years before we got married, and still is responsible for meals each week. That's sexist and rude.
Also, you may just be rude in general, because having a holiday party at a bar at 2pm on a Friday, which spouses are not invited to, is really strange.
Stand up for something you believe in.
Dear Grandpa- please get better. Please start to fight so there are more options.
Dear Temp- stop being so damn annoying! You aren't qualified for the position and you aren't going to get hired. Do us all a favor and start applying elsewhere and bring your drama with you.
Dear Bills- please pay yourselves.
Dear Snow- regardless of what everyone else says, I don't want you to hurry up and make an appearance. I'm okay without a white Christmas.
Dear Sister,
You're really pissing me off in that you're only giving us an hour of your time on Thursday because you're busy with things with your H's family on the days that your kids aren't with their dad. I am your sister, Ellie is your niece, and we deserve some time too.
Dear Mom,
I'm really sad that this is the first Christmas that I won't spend with you, but I'm not going to tell you that because you're obviously happier living with your bf.
Dear Dad,
Please get better.
Dear El,
No one cheers me up the way that you do. I love you.
Charlotte Jane- I love you and I hate that your sick, but mommy needs some sleep. Daddy doesn't play nurse well. Please get better soon.
Weather- going from 20 to 60 in a week doesnt make me happy. Pick one or the other. I would love a bit of snow, but Cincinnati cant handle it.
Bank account- please find some money. I need to buy gifts.
Mark- deciding we are buying Christmas gifts for each other isnt great timing on the 14th of December. Make decisions earlier or give me some moola.
work- do yourself. I cant handle stupid questions any longer.
Weight- go away forever. I can handle not getting any more annoyed this Christmas.
Dear headache,
You hurt, a lot. Please, please go away. You are making today very long (which seems to be the theme of the week)
Dear Dad,
Oh father, I understand you live in PA and all of your family (a total of 5 people including me) is up in NH. But telling me that you MAY be coming up for a 10 day visit a couple of days before you start the trip up is getting very annoying. 3 days before you should be making the trip up here you still aren't sure if you are coming and since you don't know that, you also don't know if you will need a place to stay or what days you would need to stay. I'm sorry if I'm getting frustrated with you but I can't put my life on hold waiting to see if you will show up on my doorstep. Do not get sad/mad at me when you do finally decide to come up and we aren't around to spend time with you, you should learn to make plans ahead of time.
Dear AF,
Start already!! A whole stupid week late, after being a couple days late last month. So I guess while you're at it get back to a consistent schedule so i don't have to guess when the heck you're gonna show.
How does your Deed read? If his name is listed first, by default it's the same for the mortgage. Sorry. =x

One more to add
Dear AF,
I can feel you coming, pretty please hold off until at least Friday, if you come any earlier we won't be able to do the monitoring we need b/c the doctors office will be closed for christmas. So, as much as I'm looking forward to getting this next cycle rolling, let's wait 2 more days.
Dear Ames and MB-
My belly thanks you for four delicious Killer Brownies.
Dear Coach-
Thank you for having a 70% off online sale on my birthday. You are so good to me.
Dear Liver-
I know that I have not taken you to a bar for the purpose of drinking in at least 8 months, but you better put your big girl panties on for the weekend.
Dear Client-
Asking me if I mind working on Christmas (especially considering it is a Sunday) is pushing the whole "I can be available whenever you need me" a little far.
Dear work,
Cutting my hours in half? Very much not cool.
Dear job search,
Hello again, old friend. Let's find something not in a restaurant this time. Really sick of the BS.
Dear house, laundry, dishes, etc.
Clean yourselves.
