Dear extended family members (whom I love and adore) Even though I knew I would see you today, I pushed my beauty quota luck, and stayed up for almost 24 hours to meet a deadline and now, shall join you for a dinner cruise on just four hours sleep. Thus, I must pass on more LIVING WITH A WRITER SENSITIVITY TRAINING tips: 1. There will be no comments. About anything. You will love me as I am and LIKE IT. 2. You will not mention the stripe of gray hair down the middle of my scalp. 3. You will smile even if my shoes dont match and one or more articles of clothing arent right side out. 4. You will not repeat an incident like the one above in polite public nor speak of it ever again. 5. You will gently nudge me and softly whisper in my ear, Wake up, dimwit. Youre hair is in your soup. 6. You will tell me I am pretty even if you feel as thought hell awaits you in all its fiery depths for being such a big, fat liar. 7. You will not let me tip overboard because Im too tired to stand up. 8. You will wipe my mouth if I dribble food from my slackened maw. 9. You will tell me I have nice hair. 10. You will admire my wrinkle-free skin and bag-free eyes. OPENLY. And with VIGOR. 11. You will avoid mentioning my swollen sausages for fingers and offer to feed me my dinner if I cannot hold my own fork. 12. Most importantly, always remember that youre not the most boring people on the planet, and me, facedown on the table is simply exhaustion and not a reflection on your storytelling skills and even though I am mostly worlds at this point (because Ive used them all in my MS), I love you all madly. Love, Dakota :)
