    Work!

    Dear accountants at our divisions who supposedly have much more training than I do:

    Why is it impossible for you to follow instructions, provide complete information, or fill in the blanks despite how clear the instructions and requests are??

    Dear pair of self-absorbed mothers pushing strollers side by side on the narrow, uphill part of the bike path this morning:

    Yes, I was riding on the bike path and yes, when you saw me approaching at a fairly high speed and did not go single file I did ride just as close to you as I possibly could while maintaining my pace, scaring the bejeebers out of you.

    I'm not sorry. You were coming towards me. You saw me coming from yards away as the path was perfectly clear. Yet you did not move over one millimeter. I was perfectly able to judge where I could ride in order to pass you very closely without slowing down or actually endangering you or your progeny. I am hoping that next time you see a cyclist coming towards you that you will move over.

    Sincerely,

    the spandex wonder

    PS - kids on the bike path who don't have control of your bikes and don't really know where you're supposed to be, don't read anything into this. I will continue to slow down and give you guys a wide berth. You aren't old enough to be worrying about looking out for anyone but yourselves.

    Dear Costco,
    thank you for selling 20-packs of my favorite pens for $9.50. It made my day!

    Dear Weight Watchers,

    Thanks for being so quick to fix the sync problem with the On The Go program and your website - NOT! Four weeks! Four freakin' weeks! Not until someone posted the coporate phone number, and the calls started, did you even acknowledge the problem. I luv good customer service.

    Dear neighbor-dog Mocha--
    We like you and don't mind you visiting us because your worthless, bad-dog-companion people practically ignore you most of the time, but do you have to jump around like an idiot when I take you for a walk along with Cocoa? Today, you made me trip over you and fall, so I injured my knee and shoulder. So now, not only won't I be walking you and Coke for a few days, but I can't ride my bike either. This does not make me feel like being a good neighbor! I know you're just happy to have some companionship--any companionship--but jeez, chill out!
    In love and frustration,
    The good-dog-companion person
