    Dear Supervisor of DH:

    I know you two are meeting tomorrow about the expat job. C'mon, pick him. Send us to China for a year. I can snag a teaching job while we're there and would be able to ride my bike all year round. I'd love to learn some Mandarin and it would be hilarious to see my parents in Hong Kong if they'd come to visit us. Plus we've always wanted to live abroad...I feel like this is our chance.

    We want to go! Pick us! Please!!!

    Dear Mimitabby,

    I have thought a number of times that you are one of the kindest, warmest, nicest people I've met recently. I have thought that when we've met in person and I often think it when I read your posts. I am sorry that your sister is not able to see through her own stuff to realize what a good-hearted soul you are. I'm glad the rest of us know it, though.

    PS I have a difficult sister too, who does similar stuff to me. You have my total sympathy, believe me.

    Former PITA,

    What has possessed you to decide to show up in front of my building to "talk" to me? I am so glad I took the bridge from the parking garage and didn't go through the front door. I have no idea how long you were waiting, but I could guess considering you started calling my office phone starting at 6 am. Your borderline stalker at that point.

    I am over you. Done. Fin. No mas. We both made that quite clear through the last few emails. Maybe the fact that all of your emails are blocked from my accounts mean something to you also. Which you know this because you mentioned you couldn't get a hold of me any other way.

    Lucky for you, this morning I didn't expect you and you had the upper hand. Now, I have the upper hand and I'm p!$$ed. I am not afraid of you, and if you want a face to face confrontation, that is what you will get. If you didn't get the hint from me turning back around and leaving the building this morning that I don't want to speak to you, if you try it again, trust me, you will know.

    Sincerely,
    A very empowered girl
    who you don't want to mess with

    Hey CWR-

    Do you carry a cell phone with you? Do you have an emergency contact person in Anchorage to help you out?

    Please ensure if you do see dork boy again that you call the police.

    I don't want to hear bad news about our CWR from Anchorage ok.

    Sending Kit(& X)'s boot up to Anchorage should be a last resort.

    Take care of yourself & be safe.

    I do have a cell phone that I have with me. Yesterday I was walking in with my friend, which helped. Today there was no sign of him. If that means he gives up, good. He either A) got the reaction he wanted or B) realized I don't want to talk.
