Day 12

"Those mass-produced holiday newsletters."
So it's the topic from yesterday. I don't care. Nothing irritates me more than a mass-produced holiday newsletter. With the singular exception of a family friend who remarried with his six kids to a lady who has like...7 or 8 or something, I don't need a letter to keep everyone straight. Seriously.
So it's difficult to imagine me not responding with something like this:
Dear _____ (fill in your name),
Wow! It sure has been a long time since I've contacted/seen/spoken to you! How long has it been? _______(fill in amount of time here). I hope your children/spouse/life partner/pet (circle one) is doing well too. How have you been, living in the midwest/back east/the south/the northwest (circle one) all this time? This year I've been trying not to fall apart/kill someone/myself (circle one) because of all the stress, but at least i'm doing OK otherwise! I hope you had fun during your vacation to _____ . It sounds like fun! Please let (name of spouse/child/partner) know that I'm thinking of them. And if you have kids, thanks for updating me on their extra-curriculars/academics/college life (circle one). And congratulations on your raise/promotion/all expenses paid trip to Bermuda (circle one). That sounds _________(adjecctive here). You must be so thrilled! I've been in the same job for awhile and while it pays next to nothing, I still like it.
Take care and I hope to hear from you soon/next year/sometime (circle one).
Happy Holidays!
