dear maintenance man

dear school district maintenance man,

You might possibly be an angel. You are most definitely a life saver.
Thanks so much for driving out to the main office to put on some strange girl's spare tire. Because of you, that strange girl's day has been brightened.
I hope there is a raise in your near future, because you deserve it.

dear main office secretary,
Thank you for calling the maintenance man.
Thank you for taking it upon yourself to wait outside with me until my tire was fixed.
Thank you for your knowledge of changing tires, and trying to teach me the basics while we waited for the maintenance man.
Thank you for the hug goodbye.

Today you both reminded me of how wonderful and kind people can be, and that always trying to do things by myself is just silly.

Sincerely,
Staci

is it 11 already?

11 months!
gosh, we're getting old.
gosh, I love it.
thanks for eating dinner with me even when you're not hungry. for corny joke text messages and dance parties in the kitchen...living room...grocery store...and anywhere else we feel compelled. thanks for making me watch movies I don't really want to see, because we both know you have better taste than I do.
it's been a most-fantastic eleventh month.
i love
love
love you.

ode to boyfriend...and monsoon season.

Dear boyfriend,

Thank you so much for stashing an umbrella in my school bag, because you knew it was monsoon season and I'd forget to grab one. Your thoughtful ingenious paid off today and saved my clothes, homework and computer from mortal peril. This alone is enough reason to be madly in love with you...which I conveniently am.
You're the best, mister. :)
