    Thanks.

    dear so and so... you may be relieved, but my heart is breaking. yes talking to you this past few days has helped alleviate some of the shock... but when you made the comment that talking to me is okay because it requires no energy makes me sad i didn't know i was such a burden... last i knew and heard, i was the love of your life. i am sick knowing that tomorrow is one week that the bomb dropped in my home... and i even sicker knowing you knew well ahead you were going to drop it... and there i was anxiously awaiting to see you face friday night... just so you could dodge my hug and say "we need to talk".

    fwiw... for all that we shared... i think it's pretty shi**tty you made this decision all on your own

    Dear Professor of the Professional Institution,
    I was not impressed when you dropped the F-bomb in class.
    I do not appreciate your sarcastic laden humor that puts students down.
    I don't think your discussion of your preferred political affilliation has a place in the course I registered for. Even if I agree.
    My respect continues to wane.
    Please, think about your position and the professionalism which you are modeling.
    Thanks!

    Dear all,

    A little more light and a little less heat, please.

    Thanks.

    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!

    Then give it away to a kid who's never eaten a pomegranate before.

    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.

    Apparently some are still having difficulty grasping the concept? I think you should show up with your scar highlighted AND the neck bolts. Maybe then they might get the notion.

    naah.. probably not...

    Woof

    Dear Non-Profit organization that provides service dogs to the blind -

    You broke my dog!!! Well, I know, technically he's "your" stud dog, and I am just his "keeper", but let's be realistic, he's our family's DOG. And he went in for a DATE with one of your floozies, and I go to pick him up and his tail is BROKEN!! Who slammed the frickking kennel door on my dog's tail??

    And it may need to be amputated to prevent nerve damage, and amputation seems like such a silly thing but you people who don't LIVE with him have no idea how much pleasure he gets from chasing his tail. Seriously, he has done this his entire simple loving little life. He is a tail chaser. He loves it.

    Well, let's just hope he's home for Christmas.

    Dog mom.
