August 17th in a Series of Short Letters

1.

Dear Ants -

I am deeply sorry for having disturbed your colony when I tried to pour myself a bowl of cereal this morning. It was terribly inconsiderate of me, especially the part where I unceremoniously dumped half a box of delicious cereal into the trash. Or the part where I cold-bloodedly drowned you in the sink to clean your swarming black bodies off the white porcelain bowl. Next time I will try to be more careful.

Yours, Heather

Dear eSchoolMall -

It would be really, really stellar if you would actually load pages when buttons are clicked. I know this may be a hard concept - especially because there are SO many buttons and options on your site, but it would still be excellent if loading one did not require 40 minutes and 4 restarts to get it done. Thanks for your help in the future.

Sincerely, Heather

Dear Donors' Choose -

I love you. I really do. But I am highly and deeply disappointed that you do not allow teachers to get newspaper subscriptions or have a better selection of news and current events supplies for high schoolers. I was again saddened when googling a document camera generated higher quality for lower price than I could find from your vendors. We need to do better.

Just some things to think about. - Heather

4.

Dear Counter and Floor Contractor -

I am so, so glad that you are so, so good at doing you job. I mean you really can't do better than delaying my move in four separate times, for a total of essentially a month late and have the floors still not be laid. Seriously, great job. I am just about speechless.

But really - could you please stop fucking me? I kinda want a place to live. That's all. Before I started my new job would have been nice, but at this point, could we just shoot for before my students turn up in my classroom? I'd actually appreciate that.

Get it done, already! - Heather
