You seem to have two first editions of Dorothy L. Sayers's Gaudy Night. While this is lovely, oughtn't you to have at least one circulating copy as well?
No love,
mayhap
Dear HarperPaperbacks,
Apparently you couldn't find anyone who could typeset Greek, much less read it. You have substituted "k kÆ k" for "ων και μη ων". Did you really think that no one would know the difference?
No love,
mayhap
Dear Google Images,
I realize that I am looking for pictures that do not exist (too bad I can't draw my own, eh?) and that this is bound to be a frustrating time for us all. However, is it absolutely necessary that every single image you present me with that I would deign to use turns out to be a 404? I am thinking not.
No love,
mayhap
Dear Mom,
You went right out bought the Two Towers Extended Edition the day it was released. You officially rock. So much. Do you (and it) have to be a thousand miles away?
So much love,
mayhap
Dear
mayhap,
Those icons? You can keep working on them tomorrow. Really. Now go to bed. You realize you have got to be up in five and a half hours, your suitemates' loud and obnoxious music notwithstanding, yes?
Love,
mayhap
