Dear So and So

[ultraviolet]

Dear magical ointment,

I know I've been calling you "unicorn snot" because of your strange silvery color, but I meant it with affection. Really. Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for making my hand feel better. The pain is minimal--more annoying than painful--and the last of the blisters have receded, so I should be able to go without bandages now. So, thanks!

I guess I should also thank myself for being careful about keeping the hand bandaged well, mostly because it kept me from doing something stupid and breaking open the blisters.

In anticipation of getting to return to some activities (doctor says still no biking or weightlifting for a couple of weeks to protect the new skin trying to grow under the blistered areas), I've just treated myself to a couple of workout tunics/dresses from TE. Whee!

Love,
me

Dear Real Estate Powers That Be

Thank you for guiding prospective buyers to my former home. Now if you would just watch over the inspections and their final loan processing so we can close and I won't be stuck with some kind of crazy big repair bill. Merci beaucoup.

Dear bike--
WTH? Now that I have a new saddle, I'm now way more comfy in the drops than I am anywhere else. You are extremely silly. (And once I can come up with $150+parts that I can comfortably spend, we are getting a fitting.) Now, if only I could afford to upgrade you to 105 shifters (and new derailleurs and cassette while we're at it, because I don't think 8-spd 105 shifters exist) so that I can shift from the drops...

Dear W--
Thank you so much. I needed that. And thank you for being someone that I can talk about the joys of grad school in biological sciences with.

Dear Bike,

Please let me know when your done punishing my nether regions with your saddle/shorts/whatever so I sit for the two preceding days after a ride. Pathetic nine mile ride and you act like this is the Tdf. Lol.

Sincerely,
Me

Dear vet's office,

Please feel free to call anytime and tell me how my fur-kid is doing after his dental appointment and other assorted grooming. I know that y'all are busy, but I really do worry about him.

Hugs and smoochies,
Dog mama


ETA: Talk about the power of suggestion! The vet's office just called- he's fine

I'm glad he's doing fine.

I feel your pain. When my cats have been hospitalized, I've been a nervous wreck. Waiting for the vet to call with an update is agonizing. Henry Cat--the guy in my avatar--was at the vet for a week last year with a mystery illness, and it was all I could do not to call them several times a day.
