Dear So and So

**Owlie** · 09-28-2010, 12:50 AM

Dearest boyfriend:
Where do I start? I realize you have work to do, and I have nothing to do but study for the GRE, cook, and clean. BUT. You've said it yourself: You live here, and it's not fair on me to have to do everything. I see precious little evidence of you acting on this. I can't even persuade you to take the trash out yourself or move your stuff so I can clean under it. I'm a little sick of asking you to do X, having you answer "Okay! Give me a minute"...and it never gets done. You're out $30 because you didn't return the splitter that's been sitting in the living room for a month. And I'm tired of using your computer or going to Starbucks to use the internet. You've been saying for a month that you'll be ordering the router.
One more thing: If you're going to sleep in my bed, I'd appreciate it if you didn't scoot to the middle and then do impressions of starfish. I'm in your room, minus my comforter. It's freezing in here.

Dear Hamstring,

What is up with your recent behavior? As soon as you started complaining and asking for attention I started taking it easy on the bike and in spinning class. Even dropped the exercises at the gym that focuses on you. I have been babying you, and how do you choose to act? You wake me up in the middle of the night complaining further. Please cease and desist this activity now, I really would like to have a nice hilly ride this weekend in a beautiful state forest rather than a gentle spin in wind-swept cornfields

PS - I know my quads and core muscles are very tight and am working with that, so be please be patient...

I love you. That is all.

Dear Kitchen:
Please clean yourself, or you will be outsourced to taco bell. Thanks.

Dear Apartment,

I am moving out in 3.5 weeks, and just learned that my work schedule will also be insane for the next 5 weeks. Please help me out by helping me pack - and anything else you can think of that will help me depart from you. I am sure that your next inhabitant will be home more than I...

Ugh; I hate packing and moving. Do you have a lot of stuff?

I probably don't have as much furniture as most people do, and I have actively been thinning out other things as much as I can so I don't have so much to move. It is just that my job is intense enough right now, that the move is just going to increase my stress that much more - but it is only for a short time. The new apartment really is nicer, and I will be able to ride from home after I move - a great improvement

Thanks for the laugh! Good one!

Our kitchen got outsourced to Chipotle tonight. Closer and not as sketchy as the nearest Taco Bell.

Thanks for that laugh.

Dear school:

Can I have a week off, please? After three straight years without a vacation, I really want to sleep...

Sincerely,

One tired student
