It's time for another round of greeting inanimate objects like old friends, whinging about absent individuals or just generally pretending I am having a conversation with someone through the old typed missive method! Make of it what you will!
Dear E,
Thank you for behaving in my lessons and being such a sweetie. I don't know what I've done to be immune to your very trying ways that you plague other teachers with but I am grateful that you liking for me leads you to be a pleasure to teach.
Dear C,
I win- Coffee tin drum it is.
Dear Thai restaurant,
I am perplexed by the difference in the same Prawn Thai curry I had last Friday and this. Last Friday, 4 (possibly 5) pathetic shrivelled excuses for a prawn and then today- 8 big, succulent, tenderly cooked ones. Last week, a real dearth of vegetables, this week, loads. I am grateful for this week's offerings but why the great difference?
Dear Darbuka drum,
WHY have I got a large bruise on the palm of my hand?!!?!? How does that even work!?!?! It HURTS! How dare you injure me like this.
Dear Kids who religiously comment on my school blog,
I feel so happy every morning when I come into 10 new comments on it daily! Thank you for making it worth my while putting up those blog posts!
Dear Dinosnore,
I am sorry that CBC is so mean to you! He is just jealous because I love you lots. I'll sneak you back onto the bed when I creep in later.
Dear TA's,
Thank you for the AMAZING Divali treats you prepared for us today! Yes, I did enjoy eating spicy veg samosas for breakfast! Happy Divali!
Dear WOMOTM and J,
YAY, I can't wait to see you soon!!!
Dear Half-Term,
I am so relieved to greet you, even though it feels strangely premature,
Dear Throat,
Don't you even DARE to pull a sickie!
Dear Blog friends,
Thank you for being the constant source of support in my life- I do appreciate your friendship, empathy, appreciation and being kind to me!
Dear Sophie in the Sticks,
Thank you so much for sending me that wonderful book! I am loving it so far!
What would your Friday letters say?
xx
It sounds like you are loved by everyone. About the restaurant, they possibly are using several different cooks with different idea what the customer likes. How annoying for the difference in preparation of one of your favorite Thai dish.
ReplyDeleteThe dinosaur had me chuckling a bit. I can't picture you sleeping with a dinosaur and CBC, hehehe.
Hugs, Julia
I wish but that were true Julia! I know it not to be the case. The above-mentioned C is a pain in the bum every week in my lessons. He disrespected the drum so he got the coffee tin drum instead of the nice expensive ones.
DeleteOh and CBC is more jealous of my Pink Panther than Dinosnore- he gets really cross with Pinky!
DeleteYou are hilarious :) I love your reply to the dangerous drum, and your sweet talk to Dinosnore. What a name! :) I might have a discussion with my clothes line. And my chickens, seriously. And the new puppy.
ReplyDeleteDo it!
DeleteThis is hilarious! I do hope the throat isn't misbehaving like certain children.
ReplyDeleteI would write a strongly worded letter to the pots and pans that regularly refuse to stack and fall out of the cupboard onto my foot, and a lovingly grateful one to our holiday shack that sits here faithfully waiting until we deign to turn up and then carefully shelters us from all and sundry. Dear "Leeway", I do love you! xo Jazzy Jack
Dear Yiping, thank you for the pineapple cake fresh from Taiwan. It is delicious!
ReplyDeleteDear Cheese, why are you so mean to me?
I love your post, dear Kezzie!
What a lovely post Kezzie, I am glad you are looking forward to a week off too :) x
ReplyDeleteSpicy veg samosas for breakfast? YUM!
ReplyDeleteAww, Dinosnore :-) Jan lets Eeyore sleep in the bed but he falls out a lot (Eeyore, not Jan). Nick has been temporarily relegated to the chest of drawers until I figure out how to repair the hole under his arm.
I'm so glad you are enjoying the book, I loved it (though it was a tear jerker) xx
ReplyDeleteThis blog and a school blog, more even than I thought to keep you busy.
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying half term. Couldn't wait for it to arrive for some time off, been a long one here.

Loved reading this post Kezzie ... and you write this blog and a school blog, you're a very busy person. I love that the school-kids take time to comment on your school one.
ReplyDeleteHave a great half term week.
All the best Jan
