knock, knock

dear writers,
it's me from next door. i just moved in and would like to welcome myself to your little community. i don't know how big it is actually, i can barely see. i just know that this anonymous world of yours, even if it hard to *break* into seems so much more appealing. as you may have experienced yourself, out in the world of my previous relationships, there is almost as much as uncertainty as this here world of yours. you see, my past world is just as full of expectations and people who might easily be disappointed or slighted and be apt not to care as this one. i can think of one person who truly has my back, and he happened to father me. so what difference does it make if no one has my back here either? what the hell? is there a backbone to the universe? my spine is thriving, i can tell you that. so with that i say goodbye and leave you a gift certificate for a free haircut. i think writing to you in the second person, as someone else suggested, is a good idea. i'll miss you, and i'll see you around. best of luck with the lawn. i hope those hydrangeas of yours grow real tall and that your personality most resembles only your favorite relative with your own personal touch.
sincerely,
heather
