Dear So and So...

Dear Mother Nature
REALLY?!?!?! I get excited for the first time in my ENTIRE life that it is going to snow. Then, you pull a fast one.. and it doesn't snow. So I had to wake up and come to work this morning ... while everything else was cancelled. Can you please make up your mind?! OR have no snow at all.. OR make the meteorologists give accurate weather reports.

chilly and not pleased,
Ashley

Love you,
Ashley

Dear whoever lectures about how bad smoking is
Those of us who smoke do not puff on our cancer sticks because we think it is good for us. We don't believe there are any healthy side-effects from smoking, nor do we enjoy the smell. We know it is not attractive and we know that it can kill us. We too cough when smoke is blown in our faces. That being said, you do not have to remind us it is bad for our health. You are just telling us information that we have already heard 100 times that day, 300 times the day before and 1,000 times over the weekend.. while we were smoking a pack a night, coupled with our case of beer. If we cared that much.. we would quit or at least stop smoking in front of you. We have an addiction. We like it. If we didn't, we would not stand outside in -80 degree weather, while it is snowing.. and pile on 10 layers of clothes for a blissful five minutes.. (when we conveniently escape the chaos going on wherever it we can't smoke. We have the perfect excuse to get away.. think about it) Sooo.. give it up. We are addicted. we can't help it. We are not blind/deaf/THAT stupid (well, most of us aren't).. we see the commercials with the fake babies crawling all over the side walk, those with body parts in the trash cans and still those with people screaming out side of the tobacco companies; we see the giant bill boards, there are even ads in our cigarette packs that tell us who to call if we want to quit. We have all seen the atrocious commercial with the build up being squeezed out of the heart valve. But we still did not quit... so you reminding us will not have an effect stronger than that of the all mighty media. Thanks for trying. Better luck next time. You might have more luck convincing a dog that leftover hamburger tastes bad

Its a lost cause,
Ashley

Dear Robin Thicke
Will you marry me?

waiting for a response
Ashley

Dear, the one I saw last night who has a girlfriend
I know that you would rather hang out with me instead of your girlfriend. Who can blame you?! But the fact is.. you still have a girlfriend... who thinks you are happy. Texting me allllll day long telling me how much you want to hang out will not change the fact that you have a girlfriend or change the fact that I do not want anything to do with someone who has a girlfriend (even tho I am getting to the point where I would like to bend the rules a touch). I will be strong. Maybe you should work on the whole honesty thing.. or the whole settling issue you obviously have that I will not become a part of. Good luck, you have my number.

Dear Winter
Go away. Not one person is particularly fond of you at the moment (except for the crazies who like snow sports). Get the hint!! It is no fun for all of us.. who are cold, tired and sick of this crappy weather. Apparently Mother Nature picked you as the favorite.. and you never got the hint that when you are not wanted, you go away. I will be willing to help you with this issue.. as soon as you bring summer around. Until then, I, along with everyone else who is annoyed with this weather, will continue to be upset with you..

hurry along,
Ashley


Some things I have become obsessed with:

:: This version of "Sitting on the Dock of the Bay" by Justin Nozuka.. there are a lot of good covers of this song... this is one of my many favorites.

:: Robin Thicke

:: Painting my nails.. which reminds me.. I need to do that tonight

:: Water

Casey and I had our own little adventure yesterday. I'm not going to mention the details.. but lets just say.. the end result made us VERY happy!! Also, as you can read in one the the letters above... One of the attached guys is back. yippee.

I don't have much going on... Jimbo hasn't been here, its been nice.. to say the least. A. Caron went to Mississippi with Rat through next week.. so it looks like I'll be spending a lot of time at my house. Tater, A. Caron's dog got attacked two nights ago.. poor thing. Ya just wanted to sqeeze him, he looked so sad.. but he'll get better.

Other than that.. the only drama I have has to do with boys with girlfriends.. uuuggghh or as he would put it "not really dating, but yeah, kinda" laammee.

I hope everyone has a good weekend!!!
