Dear Self,

Please pull it together.  I know things have been tough.  I know everything is overwhelming right now.  But it is just not helping matters to be falling apart.  Right when I need to be functioning at my highest level, it's like I've lost the ability to function at all.  And that's really not ok...  Please, can't we postpone this meltdown indefinitely?  Or at least a few weeks??

Thanks,

me

Dear Move,

I am ready for you to just be over!!  It feels like I've been doing this forever, and in some sense, I have.  I closed almost a month ago and am not actually moving in to my new place until this Thursday.  And so much of this time in between has been spent thinking about and planning for the move that I feel like it's  and I hopefully won't move again for a long time.  And that is where I want to be right now - done.  So can we hurry up and get this thing over with??

Thanks,

me

Dear Delivery People,
I am PISSED. I have been sitting in my condo (read: not at work) for the last 3 hours waiting for you. You were supposed to arrive between 11 and 2 (actually, you were supposed to arrive on Saturday when I didn't have to work, but someone "called in sick" and you had to reschedule for a day that I have other things to do, even though I scheduled that Saturday delivery a month ago specifically so that I wouldn't have to miss work for this). Anyway, I called your dispatch just now and she told me that you're running an hour late so I have to keep sitting here for another hour. Excuse me?? If you're running that late, you could have called me a long time ago and I could have gone back to work for a meaningful period of time. But instead, I have to keep sitting here, waiting, being pissed off, and increasing how late I'm going to have to stay at work tonight because while I brought work over here with me to do, I didn't bring 4 hours worth. I am so unhappy right now - this washer, dryer and TV better be damn PERFECT and you better install them FAST.
That is all.

Dear Snow,
If I never see you again (or at least not until next winter), it will be too soon. Between this never ending winter in Chicago and the blizzard that I spent yesterday stuck in, I am so over you! While skiing in 16 inches of fresh powder yesterday morning was pretty awesome, the drive back to Denver was not. What should have taken 2, maybe 3 hours straight down I-70 turned into an 8-hour adventure, with a 100-mile detour thrown in "for fun" (ok, really it was because Vail Pass was closed for 8+ hours due to a massive accident and the horrible weather). And those 8 hours were not easy driving - thank goodness it was my dad who was doing it! I am pretty sure that I have never seen so much snow at one time. And that is why I am finally just DONE WITH YOU!!
So good riddance, please stay gone at least until next winter!!!
Thanks,
me
