FWD:, RE: and other annoying emails

Everyday I open the ol' inbox hoping for nice conversational letters from friends and loved ones. Oddly enough, the majority are these dreadful emails asking me to take time out, read the lengthy email and forward it to 10 friends or I'll die by next Tuesday...whatever!

My dear peps, I love you, but I hate your emails. Several relatives send me only these type of emails. Meaning I don't get regular "hey how are you doing?" messages. It's astounding! I rarely send these messages on, unless I find it terribly amusing (so delete at your discretion). My most hated and dreaded of these emails is the "don't break the chain" message. Guess what? It's the first one I delete! I feel it a personal interference to be told what to do. It's my right/privilege to even read the damn thing, let alone bug the hell out of my dear friends by sending it on. And my circle is so small, you've already been bothered with it anyway.

So, if you do take time to read this blog, know that I LOVE hearing from you. Tell me about your day, how the kid/grandkids are doing, who's getting together/married/pregnant, whatever! Just leave the spam for the can. Much appreciated!!
