Dear Hubby,

I know you said our finances were tight.

I understand how our Cost of Living allowance has plummeted even though the cost of things on the UK market hasn't changed, and that the plane ticket to bring Number One Son home for Christmas before he enters Basic Training was pricey.

I get that.

I also know that inviting 12 additional people to Thanksgiving might have increased our grocery bill a teeny bit and so you were right to reign in my spending habits...




but I miss Stefan and Damon (not so much Elana). Last I saw, Damon really needed a hug...

(certainly not my photo and can't find info for photo credit)

I miss Alicia and I don't know if she chose Will or Peter and I don't know how much longer
the UK will make me wait to find out.

I really miss my friends, McDreamy and McSteamy...

I miss my night time friends that allow me to sit in my jammies while they do all of the talking. They never ask anything of me-- they don't demand meals without cheese, without sauce, without eggs, without yucky things. They never leave me their laundry or expect me to drop everything when their schedule changes. They never require my attendance at training or organizational meetings. Not once has any of them dumped a boat load of responsibilities on me while they went off to visit family or attend parties. They are good friends. I miss them. I'm sure I mentioned that Damon needs me.

So,
if you could kindly disregard that list I subtly emailed you back in August, I think an iTunes Gift card would be a better Christmas gift.

Thank you.

Respectfully Yours,

Your Wife. The one watching QI re-runs (which happened to be very good the first few viewings, but I am answering the questions before they do now).
