    Dear Tangentgirl:

    Yep, you're going to go look at a pretty cool car today. Just remember, don't make any rash decisions. If you like it, just try to think it over before buying it right away. Calm, cool, collected, that's you. I know the shiny things are distracting, just keep your head.

    Dear annoying cough,

    You have way outstayed any welcome you might have thought you had. This is going on into the third week, and I am tired of it! No signs of infection. Already on allergy meds. Already taking a decongestant to try to clear up the drainage causing the cough. I am the most hydrated person in a 500 mile radius from the multiple gallons of hot tea I have been drinking. I know you will go away eventually. You have come to visit before, but I am just really, really sick of you.

    my father used to mix one part honey, lemon juice and bourbon and make us take a tablespoon once an hour. That worked and we were happy throughout the process!

    Dear Self,

    For the first time in years, you are actually beyond excited about Christmas and the holidays. Don't blow it a few weeks from now and make me feel like crawling back into bed until spring.

    I think cycling has really helped my depression but it's done nothing for weight loss. I'll be happy with feeling better mentally though.

    Dear Head,
    This once-a-week migraine thing is getting rather old. We had plenty of water yesterday, got a good night's sleep, so what gives?

    Dear Rx,
    Please for the love of God, work this time.

    Signed,

    Dear postal service, or CS of a certain company, since I'm not sure where to direct my frustration right now:

    It should not take 3 weeks for a package (even through the cheapest route) to get from Ohio to Colorado. What the heck are you doing?

    Dear "pirate" sock:
    Where are you?! I have your partner. I don't *think* you got lost in the wash, since I check the washer and dryer to make sure I didn't leave anything. I sincerely hope that you're buried in the drawer somewhere.

    Wondering if the neti pot would help, I hate, hate, migraines and try not to live on decongestants but when I do take them they help with the pressure behind my ears and base of my skull
