Dear So and So

Dear Me,

Turn off your brain when you climb in mountain biking. Thinking about crashing only means you will. Go for it remember "Can't never could". Thanks Grandma Ellen for that one!

Dear Makers of the Chicken Pox Vaccine -
It doesn't work.
My DD has the pox as I write this letter. She has been vaccinated. I did not want her vaccinated in the first place b/c I didn't think the "trials" were long enough. I did not know that she was vaccinated until the smiling nurse came in with the information sheets and the pox vaccine was amongst those given. Grrr. That was years ago. I've gotten over it, can you tell?
The boy who she got chicken pox from was out of school for 10 days. Guess what? He has been vaccinated as well.
It isn't working.
Don't be so confident in your assumptions next time you produce a vaccine. Give it a little longer trial period.
80-90% effectiveness isn't that good.
Don't push it on the public.
Require informed consent before smiling nursed give it to kids.
Thanks,
Flybye

Dear friends who are going through relationship troubles (hereafter known as Jack and Jill):

I'm very sorry that you're having such a difficult time in your relationship right now. I can only imagine how hurt and angry you both feel right now. But please don't trap DH and I in the middle of this. We're friends with you both, and want to remain friends. Please don't make us choose sides.

Jill, it really hurt my feelings when you told me that, since DH and I were Jack's friends first, you plan to disconnect from all of the people who were part of your life together, including us. Clearly you don't value our friendship- we're just people to call when bad stuff happens (like right now). Nothing like being used....

Jack, I don't even know what to say to you. I feel like I don't know the real you. I certainly didn't expect to hear much of what I've heard, from both you and Jill.

Oh, that stinks, Becky. I hope you told her so

I told her that, if that's what she needed to do, I understood. I'm trying to put myself in her shoes and think about what sorts of irrational things I would say and do if I were in her place. I know that she's hurting so much right now....I don't want to be selfish or make things worse.
