Dear Gershem Kinney,

So lovely to hear from you today. I trust your wife's rapid weight loss has gone well and that your marriage has more sparks than ever thanks to those little blue pills.

I appreciate your email today offering to sell me
V / A G R A
C / A L l S
V A L / U M
and at
Extra Low P R / C E S! to boot!

Wow, I am truly honored to be chosen to receive these unsolicited extraordinary savings!

However, I think I'm all stocked up right now. You can let your hundreds of friends that email me each and every week--including Fechi Kinztel, Ingunna Lodvika and the always charming Shachar Luadreux that really does have the best deals on ROLeXXes--that I will contact them should I have any future needs.

If you run into Inger Marcella, please please please let her know that I haven't received my PS3 yet. I sent my credit card number two weeks ago now, but I just want to make sure little Timmy has it to play on Christmas morning. I suppose it will arrive any day! Mysteriously, that same credit card is now maxed out with charges that don't look familiar... Hmm. Oh well, probably nothing to be concerned with!

Well, I hope you have a lovely Christmas! Toodles!

XOXO,
-marcia

Frozen Pupsicles

When I went up to ND for Thanksgiving, Max and Zoe the Wonderpoodles decided to stay with "grandma and grandpa" until Christmas. The weather was fairly decent while I was up there, but as fate would have it... it snowed just two days after I returned to the sunshine state. The pups have never seen snow, and they are not loving it according to my mom's regular puppy updates...

Today's Update:

Max had to go outside in a big hurry. He ran out and got up to his neck in snow before he realized what was happening. I had to go get him.
His need froze and he used the indoor facility (they are pad trained).

Dear Management,

I appreciate your efforts to make my transition to vacation in North Dakota next week seamless. I am guessing that is the reason why it is so cold in my office that I am currently forced to run my space-heater at full blast while wearing socks, a heavy sweater over my long-sleeved shirt and tank top, and gloves ... when it is a delightful 85 degrees outside.

What you may not know is that we do actually have heaters in North Dakota--both in our homes and cars--and there is really no need to freeze out everyone in the building on my behalf.

Always indebted to your sensitivity in watching out for my unfelt needs,

-Marcia
