pen pal

dear laundry,
i'm sorry i've put you off for so long, and sorry i forgot to switch you out before i left for work today. hopefully i'll remember when i come home for lunch. i promise i will hang you up when you are done.
love,
bethany

dear fall weather,
i love you. i love your cool nights. i love the red leaves all over my front lawn. i love opening my windows and having a cool fall breeze come into my kitchen. i love that you have not turned into snow yet. and i love throwing on sweat pants, a cardigan, my slippers and ugly hat when i get home from work. please stay forever.
love,
bethany

dear boy that i like to talk to on the phone,
thank you for having verizon. my conversations with you are completely guilt free and literally free of charge. please call again.

bethany

dear football games,
i bought an all sports pass this year thinking i would come to every single one of you. i have missed every game. this does not mean i do not like you, it just means i have other things to do. (yes, this means i will not be seeing you this saturday. sorry, something came up.)
love,
bethany

dear family,
i miss you. i know you are coming to visit in a few weeks, but frankly i know it will be a busy weekend and i will not get the quality time i know i want. something needs to be done about this.
love,
bethany

dear ice,
i have a love hate relationship with you....but only in the winter. why does something so cold have to be so good?? i promise i will eventually end up in a warmer climate when i can snack on you everyday, all year long. and in case you were wondering, i don't care what people say about you being bad for my teeth....you are good for the soul, and that's all that matters.
love,
bethany

dear lucinda jane sorensen,
i'm over this. over phone tag. over 3 second phone calls. over not knowing what's going on with you know who and you know what. over having to catch you up on the last 3 months of my life in one phone call. i need one on one cinda time in a bad way. can we please find a time in both of our ridiculous schedules to see eachother (or we could both just get married and live next door to eachother like we've planned for years.)
love,
bethany

dear cable television,
I. MISS. YOU. (not more than my family, but still.) i know, i know....i said i didn't need you. i lied. food network, tlc, hgtv, sytycd, glee, gillmore girls...and don't get me started on law and order:svu. i know it's probably better for us to take this break right now, but sometimes i think it's down-right unhealthy. good thing megan and greg share you with me. see you tonight at 8/7 central.
love,
bethany
