Dear...
Cover Letter,
Why are you being so difficult? I hate that you are a requirement and I can't even pull together something coherent for a job I really really want, even when using a form letter!
Job I Really Want,
I know there are a lot of applicants, but please please please don't put me at the bottom of the pile for not having the exact area of expertise you may be looking for.
Starbucks Chicken Sausage Wrap,
You are so delicious, but why oh why did you have to ruin it by adding mushrooms? Now I have to reconsider our future relationship...
Body,
Please do not get sick....
Rain,
Thank you for not being snow.
Re: Dear...
Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
Snow... I know we have not seen you yet this season and I am absolutely ok with that. We don't like each other and I would appreciate it if you just did your thing and get out of my life for good!
Jon's Supervisor ... please hurry it up and let us know if his vacation time is approved so we can get out of this state and head to Florida at the end of February. Florida needs me and I need Florida. We miss each other and its time we meet again.
Dear H,
Why did you have to take a personal day, i love having you home but then I feel guilty if I take a nap when the baby does since she's 9 months and not a newborn.
Ear infection and congestion,
GO AWAY!!! I want my baby to stop pulling on her ears and to sleep through the night again.
Dear Dogs,
Last night was the 3rd night in a row you haven't slept through the night. 2, 3, 4am is not the time to get up and down from the bed and start playing with each other. Don't make me start weaning you off the bed and make you sleep somewhere else.
Dear Southwest Flights,
Please stop selling out, there are only 2 left for the day we need. I really want to go to Vegas next weekend and if the last 2 sell out before Tuesday night, it looks like we can't go.
This was the saddest thing I've read in a long time. After reading it I snuggled up to my sleeping Ellie and held her all night.
Dear Guy - I know you don't get why I'm buying a new coat but I did it anyway. Sorry.
Dear NY&CO coat - please fit. you were a steal so I'm taking a chance on you. please please fit.
Dear Ellie - I adore you so much and I hope you know that.
Dear cold & snow - go 'way. don't like you.
Boss- I sincerely hope you were kidding when you told me about a meeting in February and when I reminded you that I was taking a week of vacation you said, "You are? Who approved that?"
Client- I don't tell you things for my health or to practice my speaking. I tell you them because thats what you pay me to do. Its called my job, k?
Farm show food- you were so good last night. not so good today. Ugh.
H,
Working out 10 hours in 4 days is unreasonable. I cannot be sick, take care of the house, take care of the dog, and do all of my other responsibilities- which include meal planning, making and maintaining the grocery list/ budget, couponing, and sharing the dog, the house, and everything else which I am currently doing all by myself.
Seriously, how do you expect to to rest or get well? And asking me to come talk to you while you shower after the gym "so we'll get to talk" before I go to bed? Last straw. I may beat you.
If you're not home by 7 tonight, you're sleeping on the floor.
Job,
Change is a comin'! I don't know if this is good or bad, but I have a feeling it is going to point out exactly how hard I work all the time... because I'm not sure most other people can do it. Fingers crossed my boss doesn't get screwed over too badly!
Stand up for something you believe in.
Dear DH - I hope you get better soon. You rarely get this sick, but when you do, you are so miserable. "man-cold" times 1000. And no, I'm not a doctor, but this isn't just a cold, it is bordering on bronchitis which has been going around, so don't snap at me when I tell you that you need to REST to get over this.
Dear Niners who are sick - Hope you get better soon.
Dear boss - I know you have a lot going on right now, but so do I. Please give me the 10 minutes I requested so that we may discuss my proposal of a decrease in my hours/responsibility so that I may teach a course this semester, and also, please agree with everything I say. Thanks!
Dear Chicago Drivers,
Yes it is snowing. Yes, we have seen snow many, many times before. If you could manage to not suck balls at driving when I'm going home later that would be swell. 3" is not that much snow, fyi.
Dear Jury Summons,
I feel conflicted as to whether or not I want to have to go to you tomorrow or not (have to call in after 4:30). Part of me wants to be called in in the hopes of going and getting to leave early but the other part of me would rather just come to work and not have to deal with having to go to the ghetto.
Dear Judge,
Please get your sh*t together and stop losing stuff in your chambers. Spending and hour and a half looking through all of my files for a file that you had in your office the whole time when you swore you had checked everywhere kind of pisses me off, a lot.
Dear Jay,
I think you have been super awesome as of recently and I plan on showing you my appreciation later
P.S. Jay should thank zumba and the gym for existing because thanks to them I have been a very happy and very sexy mood lately and he is definitely reaping the benefits.
Dear Pinterest: How did I not know you had a mobile version? Now I have something else to do when Charlie is nursing.
Dear Charlie: Thank you for sleeping for 7 hours straight last night! It was AHHH-MAZING. And also thank you for napping like a good little boy the last few days. It makes for a happy Momma.
Dear laundry, dishes and household cleaning: Take care of yourself pleaseandthankyou.
Dear universe - you suck here lately. I was working til after 11pm last night for no good reason. 2 of my SP orders I shipped last week are now lost (thanks USPS!), and now there is almost ZERO hope of recovering any of my files, pictures, or music from our virus infected computer.
I quit.
Not even the appeal of a 4 day weekend will get me through this one.
Dear H-
You took Wed-Fri off this week to give you a chance to do some serious job hunting, following up on some leads for some cool jobs, as well as give you time complete things on your to-do list that you keep putting off. Yesterday, after returning from the dentist at 11:40, you played SWTOR practically until I got off work...then made me go to the store and make dinner. Today, you woke up around 10, and have now spent the last 3 hours...playing SWTOR. I'm trying to be understanding because I know how toxic and demeaning your current job is, and how much playing games makes you happy. But seriously, WTMF. Get off your gd game and get busy improving your situation.
Dear Kohls.com Customer Service,
You suck. When I place an order on 11/26 and receive confirmation on 11/28 that the item has shipped why do you void the shipment on 1/11? When I call to ask you why this happened the response is "I understand." I understand is not a proper response to "why?"
Dear Kohls Credit Department,
Melissa deserves a raise. She talked a very irrate customer out of canceling her charge with you this afternoon.
Dear Boss,
I understand you're wicked sick. You looked/sounded like ish yesterday. However, when I cancel my vacation to go visit my cousin for the long weekend because we are too busy with work, I do not appreciate that you call in sick the day I was suppose to be out of the office.
Dear 5pm,
Thanks for finally showing up.
Dear....
Week--be over. Because I'm over you.
Laundry & cleaning--gofuckyourself.
Suitcase--Pack yourself. I have so much going on in the next 2 days before my trip that I don't want to deal with you even though I need you.
Danny--I love you. In the last 3 weeks you have completely amazed me with how wonderful, caring, and supportive you are. Don't ever change.
