My Dear Letters

Here are a some letters I wish I could send....

-----------

Dear Natalie,

Yes, I know you love the movie Tangled and was thrilled to see that they now make fruit snacks with characters from the movie. But darling, please don’t ever shout “TANGLED!” in the middle of the store again. You scared me to death. You know you have a jumpy mother.

Signed,
A-Very-Jittery,
Amber

---------------------

Dear Snow,

Go away.

Signed,
A-Not-A-Fan-Of-Shoveling-It,
Amber

-------------------

Dear Tommy,

No more Justin Bieber songs, okay? If you start singing that awful baby song again, I’m going to lose it. Remember, we only listen to quality music in this house.

Signed,
A-Not-A-Bieliber,
Amber

-------------------

Dear Gas Prices,

Stop rising! I may have a hybrid, but still. My husband has a gas guzzling truck. This nonsense about gas being $4.00 a gallon by the summer does not amuse me.

Signed,
A-Would-Like-To-Have-Money-Leftover-For-Fun-Summery-Stuff,
Amber

-------------------

Dear People Who Still Refuse To Use Their Turn Signals,

Why? Seriously, why? Is it really that difficult to flick your wrist to show other cars what you are doing? It takes less than a second.

Signed,
A-You-Do-Know-You-Annoy-Everyone-On-The-Road-By-NOT-Using-Your-Signal,
Amber

-------------------

Dear Grey’s Anatomy,

I hear there will be a musical episode coming up? Why? I think I’ll be passing on that episode because watching McDreamy singing about aneurysms and heart attacks? Not my idea of fun. However, if it were John Krasinski....

Signed,
If-I-Want-To-Watch-People-Break-Out-Into-Song-I’d-Watch-Glee,
Amber

------------------

Dear Words With Friends,

Stop giving me all vowels. Or no vowels. It’s rude. I’d like a nice variety, thanks, so the person I’m playing against doesn’t think I’m a moron who can only spell words like “egg” or “ion.”

Signed,
An-I-Really-Can-Spell-Bigger-Words,
Amber

------------------

Dear syndicated Sex and the City episodes on E!,

You are not the same. I repeat: you are NOT the same. The show needs profanity and simulated sex scenes in order to be believable. Or maybe that’s just for my perverted mind.

Signed,
A-Missing-My-Husband-And-Sex-Scenes-Are-All-I-Currently-Have,
Amber

  2. A musical Grey's? No. Just no.

    And the "no turn signal people" make me compltely insane!

    ReplyDelete
  3. I agree with MysteryChick!!! I feel for you and the Justin Beiber. Can't stand that little punk.

    ReplyDelete
  4. I agree with most of that particularly musical Grey's {ick} and SATC {it's just not the same.}

    ReplyDelete
  5. SATC is just not the same on E!. I've been watching it for lack of better things on TV (I own all the seasons) and it's just not the same. Makes me glad that I have them on DVD.

    "A-Not-A-Bielber" - had me laughing out loud!! Me, either!

    ReplyDelete
  6. You are absolutely right about Sex and the City on E! Something is definitely missing there.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Snow, Bieber, and high gas prices are all things we can do without, and as soon as possible. :)

    ReplyDelete
  8. I've been watching the Sex and the City, and while it's not the same, it's actually OK.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I've been noticing gas prices too...yikes!

    ReplyDelete
  10. I think we were having very similar weeks... eek!

    I have a kid who yells out random words in public places too! It gets REALLY fun when he discusses Thomas the Train's sidekick, "Percy"... especially when he can't say Percy well and it sounds like... well, umm... something else.

    At the top of his lungs, of course.

    *sigh*


    Gas prices? UGH!

    Snow? We got our first dusting yesterday and I'm loving it - at least for the next 4.3 hours until I have to drive on it.

    Have a great weekend!

    (And I hope you find something you love from the Etsy shop - she has fun stuff! :)

  11. Kids in stores are great! My darling little (10 at the time) girl really liked saying to ladies having conversations in the middle of isles "Ladies this is not Relief Society" I would quickly turn and slink to another isle!

    ReplyDelete
  12. I like your Dear letters :) I have quite a few that I would like to write as well!

    ReplyDelete
  13. yes it's called sex in the city for a reason. sex.

    ReplyDelete
  14. when i first started watching sex in the city, it was in those old syndicated rerun, cleaned up version. i was pretty surprised when i finally saw a real episode & samantha was so very naked & humping.
    and as for grey's, that musical episode sounds like crap. that's the time of day when the disney channel is off in my house & i don't want any corny, ridiculous singing!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Today is our 5th Snow day and much as I love to have my kids home, the snow is just killing me!

    Gas prices. What.the.hell!

    Loved your letters, check out my sidebar Letters link if you have time! I'm a mean letter writer!

    Have a great weekend Amber!

  16. I'm with you on the turn signal. I hate it when people don't use it!

    I have a friend, actually, who doesn't like using her turn signal because she feels that if she turned it on, the car she's trying to get ahead of will speed up and try to get ahead of her, so she thinks if she gets ahead enough THEN do the turn signal, the car won't have time to compete. I cannot wrap my head around that one.

  17. You always make me laugh. I live in Florida, no one knows how to drive here.

    Define quality music.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I guess it's kind of sad, but when Justin Beiber was shot on CSI last week my wife and I cheered.

    ReplyDelete
  19. You're right about Sex and the City. What's the point of taking out all the rude bits, it must be thirty seconds long now! :)

    Whenever I'm in the UK people won't let me complain about gas prices as theirs are ALWAYS insane. About $2.20 a LITER. That makes your proposed $4 a gallon NOTHING. Ha!

    ReplyDelete
  20. And what about the price of bottled water...figure the price of those little bottles out to what they would be per gallon. Yikes!

    I just have to add a letter to yours...

    People who can't turn the ringers off on their cell phones in a restaurant, church, doctor's office, whatever, really make me want to write...uh...letters!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  21. You cracked me up, thanks, great ones!

    ReplyDelete
  22. The snow never ends here. A storm has just begun and it's supposed to be a LOT.

    I'm not a Belieber either. I'm sorry you have to go through that.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Oh, words with friends.

    If you ever need another player, I'm prettymuchjulia over on WWF.

    ReplyDelete
  24. LOL........OH I so agree!
    Especially the SNOW Letter!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Ugh...I really wish you hadn't said that about the Grey's Anatomy episode. Yup. As a devoted Gleek, I'll be passing on that one too.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Earlier this year, my 11 yr old came home from school and said, "All the girls at school are excited about some Justin Beaver concert."

    I was like, "BEAVER?! Hell, I'd be excited too!"

    He didn't get it, thankfully.

  27. Dear Amber,

    Thank you for this letter writing idea. I think it's genius and I can't wait to use it on my blog. And by the way, you are SO right about Sex and the City on TV. Samantha is not Samantha on TV.

    ReplyDelete
  28. You are so correct about turn signals. You know what's also bad though? When they don't turn the damn things off, so you have to assume they may be turning at each street.

    Grey's is doing a musical? Oy vey.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Words with friends is both my addiction and my nemesis. I think mine is rigged so that I only draw the Q after all of the U's are used up.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I am with you on the turn signals. And seriously on the Grey's? A musical episode????

    ReplyDelete
  31. A couple things... 1) SNOW NEEDS TO GO AWAY! 2)a musical Grey's? Are they trying to compete with Glee? Why...? 3) The gas. OMG. the gas. One day it was $3 and the next $3.50. They should at least warn us!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I'm so with you on Sex in the City. They might as well just replace Samantha with a habit-wearing nun on the TV version.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I am so with you on the turn signals, gas prices, and sex and the city. Seriously, we took a road trip this weekend and the gas prices went up 20 cents overnight. That is just stupid.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Seriously - how freaking hard is it to use the turn signal? Drives me IN.SANE. and my husband is a major offender!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Would love to sign my name to so many of those letters too!
    Very funny.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I have a truck...and its diesel...My wallet is weeping right now with the fuel prices!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Dear Amber,

    I love your dear letters,

    Signed,
    A Laughing My Ass Off,
    Jenn

    ReplyDelete
  38. I hear it's going to be a cold spring, too. Curse you Mother Nature (not really. Please don't bring more snow to us.)

  39. Opps that was me above...I have too many accounts!
