Open Letters

Saw this idea on Neely's blog ... :)

Dear Microsoft Outlook's "scheduled delivery" function for email- I tested you FIVE times last week. FIVE. And you worked. So, when I pre-scheduled a very important email to be sent to a large group of employees this morning at 6am, I expected you to work. You disappointed me and left me flying up to the office sans makeup at 6:10 a.m.on a Monday to manually send said email. Thanks for not delivering... both literally and figuratively. :)

Dear grocery store- Why are you out of bananas? I like eating bananas for breakfast every day. Please figure out your shortage before next weekend. Thanks. 

Dear Thursday and Friday- I am so glad I've taken you as vacation days. Now please hurry up and get here. 

Dear Gossip Girl- Thanks for returning tonight. I missed you last week. The GG gang's drama makes me feel more normal.... It also makes me feel like I want to live in a Manhattan penthouse. But whatever... 

Dear big meeting tomorrow- Please please please go as well as last week's meeting went. (I'll be back to blogging normalcy after tomorrow's meeting. Wish me luck!) 

Dear Pres of the US- Thanks to you, my student loans will likely be more manageable next year. High five from the interwebs. I don't care what side of politics you're on... Helping with student loans gets ya points from -->this girl<--

Dear Target Christmas section- Thanks for adding some cheer to my life the other day. :) Just walking through your aisles and listening to Christmas music made me jolly. (I like saying the word "jolly.") When a little boy ran up and turned the Christmas music to cartoon Christmas music, I wasn't as jolly, but whatever.. thanks for giving me my moment. ;)

Dear Core Fusion- I'm very excited for my dvd to arrive so I can try you!

Dear Oklahoma earthquakes- Stopit. For reals. You're freakingmeout.  We've already got tornados...and even had some today WITH more earthquakes. Just give this heartland state a rest! :)

**
And another random Monday thing, check out Chelsea's Make it My Own Monday post today. She and another blogger, Holly, find an outfit on pinterest and let it inspire them each week. They take a pic and post it on Mondays. :) And she's making it a link-up! Totally gonna do it! You should too! Check it out, friends!

Out of bananas?! I'd be one unhappy shopper! Also glad that GG was back tonight!

Love this post and a confession - I started listening to Christmas music on Pandora today!

Jane said...

Enough with the earthquakes! And for real out of bananas? The only time I've seen that was during the snowstorm!

Neely said...

1. Heart you
2. Tell me more about this student loans thing...what did I miss?

Chelsea said...

I can't even tell you how upset I get when I get to the store and they are out of the bananas I like. I'm pretty particular and it can be heartbreaking.

Seriously praying for Mother Nature to keep you {and, well, all of us} safe! That is some scary stuff :(

Unknown said...

I have been thinking of you over these past few days with the earthquakes! Praying for your safety!!

What was the final decision on student loans? Just the opportunity for better consolidation?

Brittney said...

Hey girl! Haven't 'chatted' with you in a bit! Hope all is well!

Trish The Dish said...

Totally am with you on the student loans!!!

Ashley @ The Sweet Life said...

I love this post! I'm another girl who can appreciate a break on her loans too :)

Candace said...

Carolyn said...

OMG! I'm so excited about Target Christmas too! :) LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

Carol {Everyday Delights} said...

I was shocked about the earthquakes in Oklahoma!

Jessica @ Wanting Adventure said...

Earthquake AND a tornado? Those things should not go together.

Ashley said...

Ohhh the Target Christmas aisle makes me ridiculously happy!

These earthquakes and tornadoes are making me crazy! I've had enough.

Britt said...

I have the Core Fusion DVD's! My sister recommended them to me. She is in awesome shape. I would be too if I did them more often. haha

Leslie @ A Blonde Ambition said...

Core Fusion sounds and looks amazing! I'm tempted to check it out myself! And out of bananas? For realz? That's crazy. And YES, the Target Christmas section is just one big ball of jolliness (not sure if that's a word, but whatevs!)and I LOVE it! XOXO sweet girl!!

Kerr said...

I love a banana for breakfast. Or any other time of the day. Enjoy your long weekend! So jealous.
