Gmail chat with Mom

Mom: I think you probably know this, but if you opt to take the OTC sleeping pills, do not mix them with anything like alcohol or an inhalant!

Andy: I don't want sleeping pills, I want happy pills.

Mom: You said Valium - that is not a happy pill; that's a calm you down and make you sleep pill! Go out and ride your bike and produce endorphins naturally. That's the best way to be happy! Or, go to therapy if you need it and work through your feelings.

Andy: Why can't I just have valium?

Mom: valium is for someone whose life is so bad, they are hysterical all the time and can't calm their nerves. I don't think you need valium and no doctor would give it to you anyway! Drink a glass of wine!

Andy: I drink plenty...fine i want valium's less dramatic cousin.

Mom: oh, that's a good one - go do a vlog with that one!

Letters to random people.

Dear guy on the elevator whose headphones are WAYYYY too loud,
I understand you like to listen to music on your way to work. Who doesn't? But are we living in an age where you it's so easy to replace your ears when you blow them out like that? That music was so loud it could have been coming from the elevator speakers! You should really be more careful with your ears. That's dangerous.

You have also displayed a total lack of respect for those around you who might not want to hear your choice of music. I think the song you were listening to was best described by Vanessa when we got off the elevator at my floor. "What was that? Space music?" Your funky space rap was not only too loud, it was kind of goofy. If you are going to listen to goofy ass space rap, keep it to down. You're not doing yourself any favors by telling everyone around you that you like music that sounds like a white boy free-styling to a keyboard sample demo.

I hope this letter reaches you before you go deaf, guy that works on a floor above me somewhere. I'm just trying to help.

Love,
Andy
