    Dear Harold Camping, 
    Enough with the end of the world baloney! There is no such thing as a "spiritual rapture". The world probably will not end on October 21st either, but after that I'm sure (and I wish you wouldn't) jump on the 12-21-12 bandwagon. Can't you just shut up?!

    Ooh, where did you get a personal trainer? I just decided I need to start getting in shape, and I'm willing to pay someone to show me how and keep my accountable. The problem is -- I tried to hire a personal trainer once (a year ago) at my gym, and they basically blew me off. So, I need to look elsewhere.

    I bought a Groupon a while back for Body Language personal training, near Cityplace, last month. Last night was my last of those 3 sessions and Mark talked me into doing 2x a week through August and broke up a payment plan for me of $60 a visit. Today I got an e-mail from BuyWithMe that they are running a promo there for 2 sessions plus an abs class: http://www.buywithme.com/dallas/deals/7174-body-language-personal-training

    Me too!! It happened right before J and I started dating, and I couldn't get enough Nancy Grace during that time and for about a year afterwards. He probably thought XM Radio was a ripoff since my radio was always tuned to HLN. I have the DVR set to record her show tonight because I can't freakin WAIT to see what she has to say about the defenses opening statement (which is stillllllll going on).

    Dear Casey Anthony Obsessed Knotties,
    When I first started dating Bill, another man with the last name Peterson was being questioned in the disappearance of his fourth wife (I think).  Then there was also Scott Peterson and a couple of other guys with that last name who had done something to women.  My mom asked me what Bill's last name was and, when I told her, she said, "Okay, good, because your father and I weren't going to let you date him any more if he was a Peterson."

    Drew Peterson! Yes, he's a creeper. I hated the whole Scott Peterson stuff. He always had that Grinch-like smirk on his face during that trial.  There's a special place in Hell for him.

    I went to high school with and lived down the street from a guy named Scott Peterson! I felt so bad for him when the trial was in the news every day...I can't imagine what people thought when they saw his name. His dad's name is Pete, which I always found to be weird (Pete PETErson), but any name is better than sharing that of a convicted wife and unborn baby killer!

    Dear Wedding Registry,

    I love the daily surprises when I open my front door. It makes me so excited and thrilled by the love and support. What I don't love is breaking up shipments.  You see wedding registry...I write thank you notes as soon as they hit my door step and send them out just as fast. So by now you might see where my frustration is when I send out a thank you note only to find another package from the same person on my door step the next day. Could you improve your invoices to state that this is one out of two packages? Just a thought.

    -Courts

    Dear Sister in Law,

    Srsly? I looked at your wedding registry. I have several problems with it.

    Did you really title it "Cupcakes & Pickles"? I'm pretty sure it makes you sound as if you are 12 years old my dear. I'm a finance major so english wasn't my strongest subject, but i'm pretty sure the it should read "Cupcake's & Pickle's Wedding Registry" Maybe possesive nouns?

    So when you made the registry did you realize you put the location to FW. What I find funny is that your wedding is no where near FW and ironically mine is. Hmm Strange. Also, you have the wrong date on it. I guess my brother and you can't be bothered with dates. Funny story...I actually called him to ask when you *first* wedding date( you know the one where we weren't invited but your family was)was and he couldn't remember. He actually had to think about it and mumbled out a few until he was "for sure" that date was it. To think that it was only three months ago.

    Did you ever think about maybe selecting actual household goods to put on your registry? I don't know...maybe bedding, bath towels or even kitchen stuff. I guess you really have to set your priorities. After all a 20 bottle wine rack, $700 worth of work out equipment and a $400 ice cooler are all very important when setting up house.

    I was starting to warm up to the idea of you to be honest. I figured that you would stick around for a hot minute. I even was going to go to your bridal shower. Truth be told I even bought you $70 of cupcake measuring cups and spoons. See I was being nice, even though the cupcake thing was sorta of my thing. I get it and realize i'm not the only one who loves cupcakes. I wrapped them up so cutely too! Then I heard you asked my parent's to pay for the alcohol for your *second* wedding. Then I learned that your little vow renewal was actually a full blown wedding with BM's, FG and GM. Let's get honest here. The only reason why you even came into town was for my wedding. The one that was planned for 18 months. I really will never forgive you for all of this, because to be honest you have caused my family and I alot of stress and anger.

    Since I'm letting it all hang out at this point, did you ever think about asking or telling your IL's when your "little" shindig was? You might be surprised to learn that since my wedding is a week before that they have already taken time off for it. So asking for more time off a week later isn't an option 2 weeks before. I know that you and my bro have been together for 8 months and don't know if you realized but your IL's work in the medical field. In fact the majority of the time patients are booked over 6 months in advance. Do you see where the inconvience starts and where it never seems to end...?

    Needless to say, I returned your original gifts and bought you crappy beach towels. I won't be your BFF and don't really care to associate myself with you. I will tolerate you, but don't expect me to do you any favors.

    -Courts


    Dear Mother,

    I can remember when I first registered. We went just the two of us and it wasn't even planned. I have alot of fun that day. I felt we really bonded. Something that was very much needed. You even bought me this super cute rolling ice chest and the matching smaller insulated tote bag in cheetah. We put it in the second garage because of all the wedding stuff and planning.

    I was surprised to see it out in the middle of the living room. I couldn't believe you asked me if I would mind if you gave it to C2 (courtney number two). Really? To be honest I felt like you stabbed me in the back right there. My own mother crossing over to the evil side. Already picking C2 over me and it has only been three months.

    I told you I didn't care because at this point what was going to change? I would look like the bad guy no matter what. You would call me selfish or tell me to get over my issues with C2. It would result in an arguement and at this point I don't have any energy to fight.

    I really don't understand where you thought it was ok or why you did it. I know the morning of you decided against it and went with something else, but the damage is done. My feelings are hurt.

    Dear Courtney,
    My first thought with "Cupcake and Pickles" was -- oh, gosh, it's actually a baby registry! (Doesn't that sound like pickles and ice cream, aka pregnancy cravings???) That was weird enough for a title of a wedding registry. But when you said it was their pet nicknames for each other ... I just gagged. Repeatedly.
