[Dear You. . .]

lol
I never thought I would hate something so much as much as I hate this friggin tree!

Can you at least set up a net under the tree - like a reverse umbrella - to catch the nuts on your side of the property, so you don't have to deal with the staining?

This HUG-GUNDO tree waaaayy over hangs the alley and my garage. After the windstorm we had on Sunday afternoon, I think the 'net' would have blown away. I don't think I'd ever seen that many walnuts that had fallen off at one time.

I normally don't mind trees, wouldn't call myself a tree hugger but I don't normally hate them either. Anyone who is a tree hugger -- if they lived in close proximity to this tree as I do, wouldn't hug this one! I'd hug any other tree but a walnut tree!

Dear New Boss and the Committee that Hired Her:

Although I hold nothing against you I can't help but feel the committee holds something against me. I applied for the promotion with the hopes of standing a chance of getting it. Instead of hiring someone with eight years of stellar experience and firm knowledge of the job I get blasted for a non-experience person all because they have certain title to go with their name? How does that seem fair. Now on top of the current job I'm doing I also have to train my boss to do theirs. Shouldn't that have been switched around? Shouldn't the employer be training the employee? I feel so dishartened and let down that now my job doesn't even bring me the enjoyment it once use to. Instead I feel nothing but despair and anguish at having to remain here where I feel unappreciated and lonely in a place that no one understands me.

I miss you my old boss. Why did you have to leave me to the wolves?

Sadly,
Unhappy employee.

Maybe we should all chip in to buy Staci a Chain Saw?

Dear Lost Minds,
F!@K YOU! WHY don't you make an Astro Squid that's compatible with my computer. I know it worked on here for a while, but now it just crashes before it gets to the start page. Astro Squid was pretty much the only game I ever enjoyed, that and zoo tycoon, which doesn't really work well on here either.

Dear people who gave up their row 4, middle tickets to Sweeney Todd,
THANK YOU! This will be my first musical I've ever seen live, except for a high school production of Fiddler on the Roof. Living around Chicago, all the musicals go for a very minimum of $100 a seat so I always begged my mom, but we never went. I still can't believe I got row 4 Sweeney Todd tickets for $25! My dad said the cast is the off-broadway one, and may even have some understudies for the broadway performing!
