[Dear You. . .]

Dear C, getting rid of the van without a plan to replace it is causing a problem. Please take care of it.

Dear C., I understand we're going to see you for Mother's Day. I have two things to say beforehand: (1) don't expect anything more than civility from me; (2) it's NOT all about you.

Dear Pre-Calculus,

I hate you with a very strong passion. And I'm pretty sure I'm going to fail you, but it's okay... hopefully. :/

Dear Bri,
I know how you feel. I failed both Algebra and Advanced Algebra the first time around. Had to take them both in summer school.

Dear you...

You aren't helping if that's what you are trying to do...

Do you not understand me at all?

Ellie (yes.. Ellie. Please stop calling me by my full name!)

Dear B,

I hope you are not at this again. I saw the effects of it last time, and I pray that you have the sense to not make the same poor decisions. You are such an amazing, smart, beautiful, sweet person, and it kills me to see you make such bad choices.

Love,
me

Dear You...

first time, shame on you...

second time, shame on me...

These days I am calm, moods are even; I am enjoying a new lease on health and growth. I tell you this in case any assurance is needed that I am not angry with anyone, or upset.

It's just that recently, and now, I have no idea what I am doing in the church. I have no idea why I am there.

I cannot see where to grow, or how; no direction is clear to me. As long as I have tried, I cannot take as literal truth the basis of Christianity as outlined in the Nicene Creed. I have stood with everyone else when we say it, but I have not said it for weeks.

I used to be able to make some sort of peace with everything - but finally reached a crisis, in the Greek sense. Things I always heard without listening now grate on me. The Eucharist no longer makes sense. When it was my turn to read the readings for the day, I used to feel warm, eager to communicate what the original writer might have meant, to make the words real.

The last time I read, I felt dry. I just spoke the words.

The music...having worked occasionally as a music director in the past, I know that ensemble voices must blend, and that my voice does not work with the other singers in that capacity. I settled for being a team member, with J and A bringing in their keyboard so I could provide extra instrumentation.

I miss singing tremendously. I note I said "I settled". Settling for and true acceptance are not the same thing to me.

What grates me here is how often the word "I" is used. Egocentric. I know I am loved there by many, and I am breaking into tears as I write this.

But I don't have any reason or purpose there any more. I feel detached, distant, unaffected.

G, the only reason I write to you about this is because I have known you a long while. I know I don't need "permission" or anything like that.

I have been through a lot of change, all good, and I am taking an indefinite break from A.S.C. I have to.

If by some chance you are baffled by this, I can only assure you that I am the same. So many things in my life from the past 10 years just do not fit any more.

Thank you, G. Thank you for everything.

Dear Apple,

Thank you for making amazing products that fix themselves, LITERALLY! I love my Ipod touch and was really upset when I thought it was broke, but thanks to a little help from MacForums and Itunes, it's as good as new! Such a simple fix

love,
a very satisfied customer!

Three types of Kongs, two types of Nyla bones, a frisbee, two squeekers, a huge stick, two tennis balls and some funky tennis ball thingy.

So, why the A/C cord? Why?

Dear K,

What happened to you? I don't like the "new" you and I never will. The little respect I have for is dwindling now. I just don't get the major change you've had over the course of 1 year. It makes me sad to think what can happen to you in your last years of High School. You don't have the audacity to call me your Bffl anymore, I'm sorry I don't have the heart to tell you that, I guess I should soon. We always hated people like this in our lives, but now it's you..and I just don't get the 180 turn-around. I don't want to loose you, it kills me to think of that because of what we used to have. I never thought we'd have a falling out like this. It's not even about this one thing, although this has me a bit shocked...it's about the fact that you will start doing this all the time. You think it's ok to fool around with people when it's really not. I don't get it. What you did doesn't seem like a big deal to most but it is because to me, this isn't you. This was never you.. Maybe when you get the consequences of this, you will see. But for now, I guess you'll just live with this as your priority because I know that's all that matters to you anymore. Your dignity is gone. Know that I am not mad about this one thing, because I've known others who have done this before and it didn't seem like a big deal, but it's the fact that this is the highest priority you have in your life and the fact that you're turning into the same person you used to hate..

Dear Mum,
I'm sorry for what I did to the dog even though you said no more hair dye. I was pretty sure you were joking but just in case, he now has a racing stripe and an arrow on his head like Avatar. Sorry!
