A Letter To My Long Distance Significant Other During The Holidays

Dear Significant Other,

It is once again the “happiest” time of the year, and we are not together to celebrate. While other couples may be cuddling up on the couch watching Christmas movies, eating cookies and exchanging gifts, we are left to mail our presents and Skype. There will be no exchanges of kisses under the mistletoe or on New Years Eve, but that doesn’t mean I won’t be thinking of you during this holiday season. In fact, with the arrival of the festivities, I find my mind wandering… thinking about you more and more.

The holidays are about spending time with your family, and some days it is hard to celebrate when you, someone I consider family, is miles or time zones away. During this special time of year, what keeps me going is the one main theme that is often shadowed by presents and that is to love one another. Whether you are near or far you can always feel the love between us. So maybe this year we won’t be making gingerbread houses or decorating a tree and that may be true for next year too; but one thing is certain, I will be loving and thinking of you.

Love,

Your Other Half

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
