    Not-dear person:
    Are you stupid? You couldn't find the actual article. Did you use this as an indication that you should perhaps find a different article? No. You gave me a freaking summary of the abstract. You gave me the summary of the summary. HOW IS THIS HELPFUL? I am going to mention your article in the paper, and that is it. Good luck doing the Powerpoint slides, because I really doubt that you have enough information to do it.

    Dear two other group members:
    Did you not get the memo that we were supposed to be studying depression? Instead, I get one article about PMS and one article about fat rats with diabetes. This really isn't all that helpful either.

    Dear M:
    I love you. Thank you so much for writing parts of the summary for me.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Dear not-so-dear person from previous post:
    So you took my advice. Good! Except that part in your email that said"you don't have to include it in the summary" is not going to cut it, because what's in the paper has to match what's on the slides! I realize you're from a country where women shouldn't be seen or heard, and you're acting like you're doing me a favor. Not going to fly, buddy.

    Dear Old Friends,

    We've obviously been growing apart for some time now, but I guess we're officially done. I'm hurt. I do understand your lives have gotten crazy since having kids, but an email would have meant a lot to me. I didn't expect this from either of you.

    I'm really grateful for my other friends.

    Red - We're here for you!

    And I know the feeling about messages going unanswered. It's amazing who I don't hear from after moving cross-country. *sigh*

    Aw! I hope you feel better and that your other friends are more sensitive! I have grown apart from my friends that have kids too because it's all they want to talk about (which I understand-- but they aren't interested in what I'm up to anymore as a result). That's crummy!

    Indeed you do. (((Red)))! We love you, and I know you have other IRL friend's who have been awesome to you. Try to focus on them.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

    Dear Self,

    It's night skiing for heaven's sake, with the girls, on groomed runs. Your leg will be totally fine, quit stressing out about it.
