    Dear Stomach,

    We're running a second marathon tomorrow. Please don't hit me with runner's runs 15 minutes before the race like you did last month. Thanks.


    Mimi, hope both you and RD can have a lovely worry-free weekend for your birthdays before his surgery. Thinking of both of you and hoping for nothing but the very best.

    Badgercat, I'm so sorry about your friend, he seems like such a wonderful person to know. *hugs*

    Dear self:
    Riding is probably not a good idea, as even the trainer stresses that muscle out. There will probably be that random 60-degree day in December where you can ride. A few weeks off the bike now means that you won't be off the bike for a lot longer later. (And it's getting gross, so now is not the worst time either.)

    Go clean the apartment and make matcha shortbread like you've been planning to for a while.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Matcha shortbread??? Mmmmmmmmmmm.

    Sounds REALLY expensive, though. How would it taste if you just got some lower-grade sencha and ground it to powder?

    Mimi, happy birthday to Don and I am sending healing vibes for the surgery.

    Badger, I'm so sorry *hugs*

    Dear people driving in the snow today - please be careful and leave room around you. If a city bus can slide down the road sideways it isn't safe for any of you to tailgate.

    Sincerely,

    Oh, I normally wouldn't bother, but I have some that I was given as a gift and haven't gotten around to drinking.

    Dear printer: There is no need to tell me six times that you're running low on magenta. I bought some. Never fear.

    Mimi, you & Donald should consider writing a book about your experience.

    It could be entitled "There Will Be Donuts".*

    Wonder who'd play the lead in the screen adaptation ... ?


    (*I take no credit, I stole this from someone who posted it on Donald's facebook wall. I LMAO'd when I saw it. Genious.)

    Dear Doghouse: Looks like it's you and me, kid. At least you've got wi-fi. Still, no offense, it sucks being here. Even if it's at least partially my own fault. Blarg.

    Edited because...

    Dear Doghouse: I spoke too soon. Look at me, all jumping to conclusions. So long, sucka.

    Dear shortbread gods:
    What was that? Possibly the first time I've been traumatized by baked goods...
