Dear Universe,
Will someone please FLUSH the POOP FAIRY?? Our families have been dumped on quite enough in the past several years :eek::(
Not asking to send them to anyone else, just FLUSH!!
Dear Self,
The next time the silly notion strikes you to eat an entire pomegranite. Don't. Put it down, and step back. Remember the brambleberries in Scotland? :( It's a lot like that. Just step away from the pomegranite. Tummy will thank you.
Find something else to do with the lovely ruby red berry fruit thing.
Find a camera and take a close-up of it! :)Quote:

Alton Brown says pomegranate seeds will keep in a Ziploc bag for a couple of weeks. If he says it it must be true.
Dear self,
Three things...
- Potato chips do not a healthy breakfast make.
- You're 33. You really should know by now how to tell when someone is flirting with you.
- Congrats on getting your Bulgarian split squats back. So what if it's just at bodyweight for now (besides, your body weight is nothing to sneeze at), a year ago you couldn't even walk up or down stairs without help because of that knee. And six months ago, you couldn't do single leg movement exercises without practically falling over from the pain and instability. You can really start working on not overcompensating for strength with the other leg now. Good job.
Love always,
Dex
I'm 51, I've still not figured this one out....:rolleyes:Quote:

Dear End of Day,
How can you be coming so slow when I get off an hour early today?
Signed,
Incredibly Impatient Today :p

We'd love it here in NC too! We haven't had a real snow for about 3 years!Quote:

What did I ever do to you? Why is the end always the worst? Can you just let up a bit, I'd like some sleep and for my heart rate to go down a bit and maybe for my blood pressure to return to normal. I know it's futile to ask for this but, you know, maybe one day the end of the term won't be awful.
Thanks,
Student trying to keep her head from exploding who can't wait to sleep, eat, and rest all December.
Firenze, the end is nigh. December will be here soon, I promise. You won't explode into little maple leafs!
I could have written that :oQuote:

Brain, I have treated you nicely with all the bike rides, swims, books etc. & would appreciate you working hard with me when the first semester starts in Feb.
Thanks

Dear person that put a knife through my eye,
OK, thanks to modern chemistry, the knife is gone, but why do you now have to squeeze the back part of my brain with your hand, using your thumb as leverage on my temporal region? Go away!
Migraines suck. :(
Dear people I work with. What part of out on medical leave do you not understand? My assistant is allowed to email me with questions, this does not mean you can send me work requests. Your emails will be deleted and not read.
//one more for the reasons to retire early column.
Snap..perhaps all emails from them should receive an automated reply like:
What part of medical leave did you not understand? Not all of us are a few wheatbix short of a breakfast! Obviously there's something missing up top there :rolleyes:
Thank you & don't have a nice day. Take care now. buh bye.
Is that ok?
Failing that, wave that magic wand & flicker your snap cape :p :)
Oh, it's a wonderful time to visit Australasia. Great shopping in Singapore on your way down here
:(
Freddie, we still miss your amazing voice. *sigh* Only the good die young. I remember sitting at my locker in high school when i heard the news.
Thanks again for your contribution to music with Smile & Queen.
Freddie Mercury, one of the best CC!
Not a word from my office! My assistant let the director know what was going on. I can only imagine his reaction, it would not be pretty. :cool:
Dear Spin Instructor: Please stop talking so much. Instruct, yes, but otherwise be quiet. I don't want to vote every song on what we're going to do next. I don't want to know who's traveling for the holiday, who's working, who's eating more than one Thanksgiving meal, who's hosting dinner, etc. I also don't want to play "teams" or do one-legged drills or put one hand behind my back.
I just want to spin, listen to the music, and get lost in my own world.
Thank you.
Dear Gods of Weather - This warm, then chilly, then warm, then chilly is getting hard to take. That and I'm not fond of the migraine that seems to come with every cold front. I could do without weekly migraines. Really.
So when you want to spin weather, could it be a bit more gradual. Please?
We won't discuss hurricanes, OK? The price of living in the Big Easy?
Dear Friend, the Drama Queen over all Drama Queens:
if I've snapped at you and you feel slighted, for God's sake just say so right away so that I can a) apologize or b) tell you why I'm irritated. Don't stew over it for a WEEK!, answer my emails and messages with curt, one-syllable words, and finally deign to tell me what's wrong. While at the same time implying that it's not really "worth it", and you were thinking of just "letting it slide". And for some reason trying to tell me at the same time how I mean the world to you, i.e. I must be an oblivious idiot and rude to boot.
I was so busy trying to remember what happened and apologizing that I never got around to telling you why I snapped at you in the first place, which believe it or not, had a natural explanation.
I can't stand this manipulative crap. :mad: yarr, want to go and strangle someone
So, you don't want to build your core or make your spin better to help your overall cycling? I don't understand.???Quote:

Dear Girl Gang -
There's no need to be unkind. This sort of behavior is why I'm selective about my friends. I don't find it particularly interesting to make fun of other people, particularly when you really don't know that person or their life circumstances. It's not funny, it's ungracious.
Dear Deer,
That was too close! We're both lucky I was done messing with the radio! Stay safe.
And disrespectful.Quote:

Dear impatient person driving the Cadillac with the very loud horn,
In case you haven't noticed, blaring your horn as you come up from behind me neither makes me go faster nor causes me to vanish.
So chill, m'kay? I wasn't in your way for that long, yeesh. :cool:
Glad you are safe!!Quote:

Dear friend/co-worker. When your department director says "do not email snap with work related questions" he meant you also. I will not answer or acknowledge your emails.
