    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,
    The rest of the body that needs to be productive today and HAS to go to this afternoon's major project meeting.

    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.

    Dear "Move Free Ultra" Lady,

    If you raise your saddle about 8 more inches, you'll probably solve the source of your joint pain.

    LOL!

    Dear BF:
    I'm six inches shorter than you and female. OF COURSE you're going to outweigh me substantially. If you don't like quite how substantially you outweigh me, get on your bike and ride it. You've got the good weather on the way--you can laugh at me while I'm stuck on the trainer or walking around campus for exercise.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Dear TE ladies
    Today Donald got out of intensive care. he had four tubes taken out of him and all that heart/BP/breathing monitoring stuff. Tomorrow the much awaited swallow test. Friday they are putting in a little shunt pump ... we finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.. around the corner, but now we know it can happen.

    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
