Day 1: Yellow Jackets, Family, Bad Hair Days

Today I am beginning the letter project. I hope to write every day often.These letters are the best way I can express the sappy side of my personality.

Dear McHale:

I'll try to keep the sappiness to a minimum. This morning you were stung by 4 yellow jackets while working with my dad. My heart hurt for you. And in my helpless state I wanted nothing more than to kill every yellow jacket I could find so you would never be hurt again. See? When you get hurt, I get completely irrational.

I should tell you that when you met my family yesterday I honestly knew that this time was different. I've never introduced a man to that unruly crew with the same attitude as I did yesterday. I know they are similar to my parents in that they don't get attached to my beaus. However, I wanted to yell from the rooftops that they better learn your name and get used to it because you are here to stay. Thank you for waiting 8 years while I got that dingdang flightiness out of my system. I'll love you forever for that.

Also, I should tell you that I really appreciate the fact that you love me even after I butchered your hair. Though, truthfully, your awesome fixer skills made my screwed up hair mess look super hot. But we all know I may be a wee bit biased since I kind of think you're hot all the time ...

I love you.
Always,
Annie
