Dear So and So

[lph]

Dear itty-bitty safety-craving girl inside my head,

really, it's not dangerous to move. Especially not all of a whopping 1500 yards away. Stop whinging. It'll be great. You're all grown up now, you can handle both an increased loan, and not having the exact same things you had here.

Oh, and listen to tangentgirl. She has it right about the nighttime thing. Shut up and go to sleep already.

Emily-

I'm crossing my fingers for you Please post when you have news!!

Unfortunately, nothing. I guess they either had second thoughts, found something they liked better, or who knows what. Disappointing, though.

As for the waking up in the middle of the night thing, I thought that was due mostly to work stress when I used to do that back when I was working. But I still do it from time to time here, and I'm retired now. I chalk it up to hormones at this stage of my life.

Dear Woman who honked at the little old man on the trike, who made you wait a second longer than a car would have,

You suck.

Dear spaced-out guy who shouted out that I had "big, strong legs, big, strong legs! yeah, good, good...", and actually repeated it to my face as we stood waiting for each our green light:

you were probably on drugs, but thanks anyway.

Moving is never fun, even if it's just across the street.

Congrats on your new place!

Maillotpois - I love your signature and am going to "steal" it if I may - not as a real signature but as a quote.

Thank you. It's a motto that's gotten me through many a double century and long brevet.

I see it as being applicable to more than cycling, it really nails it. I did quote you on my FB page and gave you credit.

Dear Wasps,
Soon you will die. Yes, I'm a biologist, and know you have a functional place in the world. But I really wasn't trying to harm you, and did not appreciate you sending a soldier out to sting me. Wouldn't mind meeting firemen and paramedics again, but that wasn't the format.

So be warned, your home is going to be destroyed, chemical means will be taken.

Sincerely,
The resident that is responsible for yard maintenance

Dear Male Friend of My Sister,

A stripper for my sister's birthday?! Really... that's going to make all the guys at the party uncomfortable. My family can be tacky and uncouth all on their own. They don't need the addition of a stripper. I'm sure there will be lots of raunchy comments without the stripper. Please weather gods make it super humid so I can spend all day in the water.

Dear NBC Sports,

I was very excited by how much coverage you seemed to be giving to the Olympic Swimming Trials. Alas, I've discovered it was too good to be true. You're just airing the same two hours of coverage 4 or 5 times a day.

And yes Michael Phelps is amazing, but you do know there are 1,799 other swimmers taking part in the trials? I know they're not all newsworthy, but imagine being a 14 year old in the finals for the Olympic Trials. That's a big deal. You could talk about a few other people besides Michael Phelps.
