Consumerism makes me write open letters (Or, a wrap up of my week)

Dear Gymboree,
Your clothes are a-freakin’-dorable. Especially right now for folks who love all things country and/or western. I was perfectly happy to shell out $10 for this shirt for it is cute. Through a haze of love for my nephew, I purchased the coordinating pants. Once I was out of the evil clutches of the store, I realized I spent almost as much for pants for an 18-month-old as I do for myself. Not cool.
See you soon, when I return for a refund,
Thrifty Pom

Dear NY&Co.,
Sure, your clothes are moderately stylish and I appreciate the coupons. I just have two words for you: natural fibers.
Best,
Shackled in Synthetic

Dear Macy’s,
Christmas trees? In September? You’ve gone too far.
Bah humbug,

Dear Social Calendar,
You were supposed to be full this week. I’m sorry all your plans were cancelled. There’s always happy hour tonight!
Better luck next week,
Introverted Pom

Dear Kick-My-Ass Cardio,
Ouch. It’s really my fault for returning for week two.
Yours in pain,

Dear Glass,
Thank you so much for shattering as I stuck my hand inside to clean you. The gash you left behind will heal as horribly as every other incision on my body. I’m looking forward to a beautiful scar on my right hand I’m sure you’ll leave behind. (Just be glad I’m not sharing a photo.)
OOOO (no Xes because stitches weren’t required),
One hand Pom

ITA, “Pomaneezer Scrooge”–my b-day is in mid-October: last year after a b-day lunch, we went to browse in Macy’s and it was full-blown Christmas!
Sorry about your hand.

I am so going to go buy that shirt at Gymboree - it’s adorable. Like you though I’ll have to wait for the rest of the stuff to go on sale.
