amazon.com will rule the world...
so i just got an email to inform me that my favorite t-shirt company, woot.com, is being acquired by my favorite everything company, amazon.com. now i've always loved amazon, but that love became the forever and ever amen kind of love when they bought the seventh hand-made copy of the tales of beedle the bard, sending nearly $4 million to jo's charity. and it became the i wanna have your babies kinda love when they came out with my beloved kindle. but i swear, one day amazon and google will rule the world. i can see them skipping together, hand in hand in a meadow with wildflowers and butterflies and maybe even a sparkly vampire.
but for serious. they already own zappos and audible ( 
) and imdb and cdnow and lots of others. and now woot!
i love amazon. i got an email from them today, actually, telling me that they shipped one of my subscribe and save items. i love that feature. even cheaper than walmart.
day 23. write a love letter to yourself.
dear yourself:
i don't know who you are. i was just told to write a love letter to you. so. i love you.
oh. doesn't count? hm. take two. dear self:
it was fun sleeping in with you today. it was especially nice when hermes jumped in bed just before eight and snuggled with us for a bit before the alarm went off. the cat can love you, so you must not be entirely unlovable. you are better than i think, though. i know i put you down way too much, and i'm sorry for that. i give you a ton of crap about your body, but we've been working on that and have been making a lot of really good progress, even if we have been slipping a little since living with your parents. but we can get back in the groove again. it'll take some time, but we'll get there. and i know it's been really tough being back home -- i know you're feeling like you don't have much of a future, but it's not true. i really do believe that you could go places if you apply yourself. we need to work on that one, too. but i have confidence in you. i know we don't get along all the time -- we fight a lot and we get over emotional and sometimes we just detest one another, but i want you to know that i'm in it for the long haul. even if you are crazy. and we have some amazing friends, too. so keep writing. you can be good at that sometimes, even if you do write horrible love letters. just steer clear of romance novels. but you can definitely go for the models that pose for the covers. and don't worry so much about finding mr. right. even if he never comes along, we'll always have each other. and amazon, along with it's new acquisition of woot.com. so, be well, self. take care of yourself. and i'm sure, deep, deep, very deep down inside, i do love you.
sincerely,
me
