I can relate to this. When I wanted to get a BMW, everyone was telling me how expensive it would be to fix, etc. At first I didn't want to hear it from anyone and I thought I knew what I was doing. I really didn't care what everyone else said about it.

But then I realized on my own that they were just trying to help me out and that it would cost me more overall than a car that's not as high maintenance. So I ended up getting a nice Ford Explorer (this was BEFORE gas prices were going up). And I'm pretty happy with that - the payment isn't too high, my insurance is low (for someone my age) and it's not expensive to fix. Oh, and it's still a nice car! So maybe everyone is just trying to help you make the right decision, ya know? It was hard passing up the beamer when i could have had it but I'm glad I did it because there is no way I would be able to spend $1000 on some little part that would cost like$ 200 on my Ford to fix, for example.

Good luck and let us know what you get!

Dear Bath and Body Works,
I hate you with a passion right now! I used your body wash over a week ago and I'm covered in hives. My face looks like a meth addict's. I am in tears because I didn't think it could possibly get worse and it has. Im sure tomorrow my whole face will be covered, not just the 70% thats covered now. My arms face and ears are unbearable, I feel miserable, and there is no hiding this. Damn you for ruining my plans to get a massage and facial to 'destress' from a long-hard semester 2 weeks in a row. I'm beyond help from doctors right now because the steroid injection I got a week ago and the pills I finished yesterday are alot for my system and I shouldn't be given more. Oh and one more hate list, Benadryl, and allergy medicines of the sorts. I'm allergic to them (i break out in hives/rash) so combating fire with fire wouldnt be a great option. I just want to feel better, no actually at this point its more vanity I dont want to see myself like this anymore, it is hideous, and now after 8 days it lead to a breakdown (which won't help by stressing). I just want to be happy

daniC23-I wouldn't be hateful about it. Bath & Body has a great no hassle return policy.

I do hate that you had a reaction the the body wash. Have you ever used their products before? Was it something new? My skin is very sensitive so I want to make sure that doesn't happen to me.

the product was old, it was a gift, and I used it to try to remove a product I was using for a jewelry piece and it ended up giving me hives and spreading. I use their products all the time, some made me a little itchy, but never hives before and I'd get a pimple here and there on my legs from them, but certain scents react differently, which is odd. But I think I'm done with using any of their stuff (which sucks because i LOVE the purely silk lotions, i need to find an equivalent to them) This time it was mango mandarin body wash...it smelled so nice too

But it gave me an excuse to buy some more Korres Naturals products from Ulta, I love the bitter almond smell.

Dear sick husband,

I know that the weekend is your time off, but when is mine? I take care of our baby 24/7 and although you chip in every once in a while you just don't know what it is I fully go through. I can't let her "play on her own" if you need to take a dump. I came into the hallway this morning to find she was playing with cat poop. CAT POOP! I'm really trying to be sympathetic, but you're the one who decided to eat a pound of meat at a wedding reception.. now you have the sh!ts. Deal with it. I had a raging cold all last week, but you didn't even notice. I sucked it up and worked through it. You get a lunch hour at work. I get my food stolen and dumped on the floor by a toddler. Our wedding anniversary is coming up this week, so you better redeem yourself, because I had to buy MY OWN freaking mother's day present.

Your loving wife.

Dear Lady who is renting my prior home:

I am very grateful that you have rented our home to allow me the opportunity to move closer to my work. I used to commute 100 miles each way and had to leave home at 6 a.m. and I wouldn't get home until sometimes 7-8pm.

I am not grateful, however, that you paid your April rent in May and have yet to pay your May rent and it is now June! You said you are going to stay another year after we dropped the rent for you...

Now, I don't want you to move out because we sold all our furniture and donated a lot of it to charity so we have nothing to fill this house. BUT!! I don't want to lose money just because your daughter ran off with your rent money one month...

Please, pay your rent up and stay current. I would really appreciate it. I don't like talking to the property manager every day about this problem.

Signed,

The woman who has let you in to her home.

dear bf....
i don't know what to do about us anymore... it seems like anytime i try to talk to you, you get angry, so i just keep to myself... my aunt is sick, and could possibly die soon, and with that on top of working 30 hours and going to school 35 hours a week... its not fun. Yes, i am in a bad mood, but look what i have to deal with everyday.
I love u with all my heart, but sometimes thats not enough to keep people together. I hope we work things out, but i can't deal with all the arguing and drama right now... i just cant...
-your gf.

dear mom with the medically obese child:

I understand that you are prob on vacay, but it disturbs me that you allow your child who appeared no older than 12 yet was rounder around the waist than my hubby, an xlg hot fudge sundae with extra nuts whipped cream and marshmellow creme in a waffle cone bowl. I know you shouldn't deprive your child of sweets just bc he is overweight, but you should teach him moderation... A small sundae with nuts would suffice.

Get real. You r killling him by not instilling in him healthy living habits. When he is 30, diabetic, and on heart meds, dont expect my tax $$$ to pick up the tab

signed a chunky girl who understands moderation so she ordered the small ice cream cone instead of the large cheesequake she wanted.

Dear sister-in-law

I really don't understand how this has all been blown out of proportion. I felt all I did was to make known our preferences because my first priority are my kids. Why has this been taken so badly?

I think all this unpleasantness should end now. Before I can move on though, I have to tell you honestly how I feel about your email otherwise, I will just harbour this resentment. You seem to get away with doing this all the time because no one in your family has the guts to tell you that you are being really vicious. They all seem to walk around on eggshells because they are afraid of your temper.

I am really disappointed that you felt that you couldn't be honest with me about how you felt. On the one hand, you sent me a really accommodating email and then make your true feelings known in the email to your brother. The comment that truly hurt me the most was "children should not be a dread but a joy". I absolutely love and adore my children and for someone who have not walked in my shoes and don't have kids to pass judgement and imply that I see them as a "dread" is truly hurtful. It is stressful to travel with children. That is the big difference in the sentiment. I can't imagine why you would say that other than to hurt. Your brother said "oh, it's just her, she doesn't mean it". But you've got to understand that you can't say all these awful things when you're angry and expect everything to be swept under the carpet when you say sorry. Forgiven yes, but forgotten is another matter. You are not a toddler who can just throw a tantrum because you don't know better. You are supposedly a professional 36 year old woman. It's about time you learn to think before you fire off vile emails.

I still don't understand what awful things we have done to trigger all this. Is it because we're not just going along with the plans? It is our idea to go on a family holiday in the first place. But since, all the plans have been railroaded. We should be able to have a say about where we want to stay. We need a resort that caters for kids and we need to find one that fits our budget.

This was hillarious, heartfelt and serious all at the same time.

I'm going to post two letters, one not nice and one nice.


Dear Pot-Head/Drunk/Smoker father of mine.
You piss me off to no end. After i lay down the law to you and say i don't want to see you or talk to you until you quit drinking, and then you have the audacity to say it's your hormones talking, when it most certainly was not. I really wish you'd grow up, and quit acting like a jerk and an idiot. And i wish you wouldn't love your freaking booze more then you love me! Your own daughter! Is that booze going to say i love you dad, is the booze going to say you're the best dad, is the booze going to give you hugs and kisses? NO! So quit drinking, please!

Love your daughter.




Dear uncle Jerry.

It's been three years since i lost you and sometimes i still can't believe it. You where the closest thing to a father i had, and you will always have that place in my heart. You where incredible, taking me places, doing things with me, just being there for me and most of all loving me with no strings attached, no expectations, just pure love. And i wish we didn't have to say good-bye when we did, but as least we said good-bye, even though we had no idea it would be good-bye for good. Thank you so much for everything.

Love with all my heart, the daughter of your heart.

Dear Mac-ie,
What is wrong with you!?! Why does your life battery have an "X"? And why do you suddenly turn off and not save anything when you are unplugged? Ridiculous! If you don't miraculously fix your flaw then I will have to trade you in for your sexier relative, the air.
