Dear Eyeballs, Stop being so itchy. I can't control the pollen. Mel Dear Boyfriend, If you don't take decongestant tonight and you keep snoring like you did last night I will smother you with your pillow. You sound like a broken lawn mower. Lots of love, Girlfriend.

Dear Boss:
REALLY? You come into my office at 8:15 this morning to announce that your goal for the day is to not ask me to do anything for you so I can concentrate on the backlog of crap on my desk and 15 minutes later you are in here again asking me to make phone calls for you and find a missing file?? Pull it together, man!
Sincerely,
You stressed out employee
Dear self,
Pull yourself together! Take a deep breath and dive in. You have far too much to do in the next few days to sit idle and stress about it.
The new person you hired is not the second coming of anything, I'm fairly certain, so please stop acting like she is and you made the Best.Decision.Ever! by hiring her. Also please remember that even when I dump a metric ton of responsibilities on her that I will still have a larger workload, since she can't work with higher-need clients.

Dear Gorgeous Silk Chiffon, I cannot afford to buy you at the fabric store. You are so pretty and soft but I spend all my money on my cat. I cannot justify getting money from my savings account for you, even though my brain keeps saying I should. My brain is wrong. I will think of you longingly, Mel the fabric addict.
WTF. Go away. I get plenty of sleep. My diet is fine and I drink plenty of fluids. You've been hanging around for at least a month now and it's pissing me off.
Thank you for somehow reading my open letter and including me in discussions and decisions, making me feel like you value me and don't want me overwhelmed and wanting to quit. I feel appreciated now.
