Open Letters Friday is a segment here at PCL for your reading and writing enjoyment. I’ll share with you some of my open letters for the week and you’ll get the opportunity in comments to share yours. Now, tell me, who do you need to write to this week?

Dear Pandora:
I appreciate your existence. Really, I do. However, when I indicate I want to listen to”Pop Princesses” in the morning and you give me some alt-country-rock band I’ve never heard of, I question your sanity. Please adhere to the guidelines I set forth for you. I’m all for learning about new music, but not switching genres for the sake of it.
Sincerely,
A Troubled Listener

Dear New Moon:
I have a feeling you’re going to suck. Please don’t. I’ve been looking forward to this excursion.
Yours,
A Team Jacob Member

Dear Lady at Tim Hortons:
Thank you so much for dropping my credit card on the ground at the drive thru this morning. I had to be that asshole who puts their car in park and gets out to get the damn card. Maybe next time you could just try handing it to me properly. Just a thought.
Not Truly Yours,
Disgruntled Coffee Drinker

Dear Universe:
I know you and I haven’t been tight lately. I’ve been trying to thwart your plans, you’ve been trying to thwart mine (well, more the latter, but you know…). I’d appreciate it, though, if we could work together. For example, you can start by giving me some good news and I could take that good news and spread it. How does that sound? Terrific.
Thanks a million, Uni!
Love,
Kim

Dear Pen:
I was using you last night when The Mister got home. I set you down somewhere and now I can’t find you. You were a great pen. In fact, you were a terrific pen. Now, please, find your way back to my line of sight.
Sincerely,
A Lonely Pen User

Dear Kim,
I, too, am on Team Jacob and hope that New Moon doesn’t suck. I, too, am at odds with the Universe. How do our so-very separate worlds collide so frequently?
Sincerely,
An apparently very kindred spirit
I know that ‘pen’ feeling. It’s the worst kind… ESPECIALLY when the pen falls within the TERRIFIC calibre
Dear PCL,
Thanks for introducing your letters segment. I wrote a real letter today and feel great.
I think New Moon is perfect for Team Jacob folks. I saw it last night and was almost swayed from Team Edward to Jacob. It’s rough. Don’t make me choose!
High five for Team Jacob!
Dear Kelly Clarkson,
I’m going to be seeing you in just a few hours, and I need you to not suck ok? I bought these tickets on a whim and have no idea if you’re any good in concert. Also, please don’t have hundreds of little girls sitting in front of me.
Thanks a bunch K. Clark!
Sincerely,
A newly converted fan
Dear sinuses,
Feel free to clear yourselves, and stay clear.
Not much love,
A future Kleenex shareholder
Dear whoever returned my phone to my office after I stupidly left it in the bathroom at work and rode my bike home only to discover it was missing,
Thank You!
Gratefully yours,
Lisa
I have the same problem with pens, except it’s always my boss stealing them.
Dear Discovery Channel,
Deadliest Catch is really stupid. Please play something fun, like Mythbusters or Dirty Jobs (Mike Rowe is dreamy).
-Bored (Hasn’t anyone else noticed that all the episodes are the same? They go fishing, they get crab, someone has a bad attitude, they make some money, repeat.)
Dear Swine,
You better not be visiting my husband. Seriously.
Love,
Stacie
“For example, you can start by giving me some good news and I could take that good news and spread it.”
Laughing out loud in a public place. Thanks!
In rereading my comment, I see that it could be interpreted to be write to a woman rather than the swine flu. That is both troubling and awesome.
(As an update — no swine flu here, just sinus infection!)
New Moon is good dear. OMG I’m officially converted to Team Jacob too!:p
