Dear toenails ("index" toenails, I'm looking at you),
I thought we talked about this. Falling off during flip flop season is not acceptable. Especially when my sister's bridal shower is this weekend, and the wedding is in two months. You are lucky the purple nail polish I painted you guys with last night seems to be camoflaging (sp?) your absence, but seriously? STOP.IT.
xoxo, The girl who is currently down not one, but TWO, "index" toenails. Fuckin' A, man.
Dear Body, Mom is the one who just started chemo. You have no reason for the massive migraine. That was unacceptable. Also the super hearing at 10:30 last night- that has kept me up all night- not a cool super power I want. So. If you could just stop being a pain- I'd appreciate it.
Love- Doesn't have time to be in pain.
PS if you get off work early you WILL do speed work today. Even without sleep. Got it?
why have you been snacking so much more than usual and having zero self control?
Love, Me
Pregnant? Those were my symptoms exactly.
Dear Sleepy Brit,
The snooze button is not an acceptable option in the morning.

Dear Baby,
What happened to waking up once per night? I thought we were both cool with that compromise. Three times in a night just isn't cool, especially when I'm flying solo.
Please don't ever post on FB that you "are excitedly awaiting life's next adventure" ever again. As your oldest child who has been happily married without children for nearly five years, I had to answer several FB messages, text messages and phone calls from dear friends and family members about whether or not I am PG. I assure you that children are in our life plan, but give me another year to finish my graduate program and some more time to travel before we start TCC.

Dear Work,
I want my space heater back!!! If you are going to take it away, at least make it warmer in here. No need for the AC to be blasting all.the.time. Now I'm going to have to bring a blanket to work and look super unprofessional because you are being lame.
Great run yesterday. Now, accept that you aren't a fast runner, but if you stick with it, you can get faster. You WILL get faster. Just because you think you should be able to run 2 miles at 10 min/mile doesn't mean you actually can. Someday we will get there. Someday we will get below 10 min/mile. But for now, just push yourself and be happy with that.
What gives? We roll together for so long and one morning you just up and quit on me? Not cool. You don't see me twitching and ticking just because I don't want to move before 7 a.m.
Thanks for nothing, The Real Energizer
Dear Body,
Stop acting all pregnant unless you're ready to stripe the strip, already. Eat or don't eat, puke or don't puke, sleep if you want. All your drama is making me antsy... especially since I'm 99.9% sure you're embyro-less.
Dear former boot camp "friends": Yes, I found another boot camp place. Yes, it is less expensive. Yes, it is only 3x a week. However, the boot camp I was a part of is not the only place in the city. So do not act like I am "cheating" on you guys. I am not. Plus, these people actually treat me with respect and understand that I am not going to be thin overnight. Deal with it. Signed, found a new love of boot camp
Dear self, A few things, friend. For the next 8 days in Kentucky, you WILL run. I don't care how humid it is or hot it is. You WILL. And you WILL show a bit of restraint in eating. You will eat your healthy snacks. You will eat your own lunch and breakfast. You will NOT geek out on Diet Cokes and carby snacks. Love, The girl who doesn't want to have to undo all that work next week
