A Series of Open Letters II
You know, I was thinking about making this like a regular Monday thing, but it turns out it takes ENERGY to come up with this much ranting, so it will just be a sporadic thing.
The worst thing is that right now, I have a day off. And yet.

Dear Taxi Driver,
No, I did not call you and it is SEVEN AM IN THE MORNING AND I AM IN BED. I am sorry you are inconvenienced, but you know, you could have said GOODBYE when you found out I had not ordered you, instead of just leaving me saying: Hello? through the intercom at my front door. After all, YOU WOKE ME UP.
Jerk.
Dear Cat,
Did you seriously just drool on me? That was of LOOGIE proportions, you know. Gross.
Dear Lush,
I love you! You know I love you! I have been purchasing your hand-made products for years! I love your soaps! and your face masks! I would like to love your moisturizing bars as well! so let’s talk about them for a second.
Your moisturizing bars are a great idea - they appeal to my pragmatic nature. Instead of getting out of the shower, drying off and THEN slathering on the moisturizer, I can do it in the shower! THIS IS GREAT! It’s right in front of me, right after I’m done soaping up! It’s ALL. RIGHT. THERE. YAY.
Now here’s the thing. If I use your damn bar every day, the whole thing lasts about a week. Lush, your stuff is expensive. And your store is far. I am not. Buying this. Every week. What’s MORE is if I limit myself to just once or twice a week, the water DRIPPING FROM MY SHOWER starts to erode the bar. I’m not kidding, Lush. and I live in an old building. Asking an old building to stop dripping is just an exercise in futility. I am mostly just happy when things don’t DRIP THROUGH MY WALLS.
Finally, can I just say? I get that you were doing a whole “chocolate” thing for valentine’s day, and yes, that is what I bought, but the fact that as I moisturize* having the chocolate bits swipe brownish liquid over my skin was kind of … shall I say… gross? I mean not very appealing Lush!
Just a thought.
Kisses!
Mei
*holy crap that took me a long time to write that time. Moisirtize, Moisurtize, Moisurtise? Moisutize! Moisturize! THERE WE GO. Jeesh.
