I was walking toward you inside a certain Spring Garden Road shopping establishment Friday afternoon. We made eye contact and I looked away. I wish I'd smiled and said hi instead. —Awkward Blonde

Thank you, mr. Frank. Thank you. —Bobby magic

know why i love you? it's because you let me call you "baby" long before it was really appropriate to do so. and because of the way you now call me "baby" too. —your baby

To my love. My wonderful love, this is not a note to confess how much I adore you. I try to tell you every day how much you mean to me. How your smile makes me melt, your voice warms my (previously cold robot) heart, or how a simple gesture like holding your hand feels like the best thing in the world. I'm writing you a love note to remind you that you are a strong, kind and brave woman. The last week has been particularly challenging and rough and unfair, but you will get through this. I'll always be here for you. You're my co-pilot and my partner in life and I wouldn't have it any other way. —Your biggest fan

It's been years, I don't know where, I just know you don't live here anymore, you have happily moved on. I'm sorry I ran away and didn't look back or even explain myself; I left you high and dry, and it was not fair. You are a great guy and the first to treat me respectfully and you were a complete gentlemen. I was feeling strong emotions that I was not used too, and I had never experienced intimacy like that from just talking to someone, so I did what I do best, I ran. If I am being honest, it was easy for me to tell myself, you were not reciprocating the same feelings and I was being a fanciful girl with a fairytale crush. I just started to think about it the last few days; from the bottom of my heart I am sorry. I know I will never see you again, and I hope you have everything you deserve. If there is that one in a million chance we cross paths, it will be uncomfortable and vulnerable for me, but I will apologize and explain why, face to face. —Scared Lady

Free DVDs. Free books. Answers to all your questions, courtesy of the reference librarians. All the mags you could ever want. Graphic novels. Complimentary computers. The crowd waiting outside to get in. Foreign newspapers (even if it's not that far away). I remember coming in one day and asking, at the children's desk, for the “person in charge of giraffe hats” (I had a couple of options for Geraldine). Yes, there was someone in charge of giraffe hats (Geraldine got the white fake fur hat with ear flaps). Thank you so much. See you on the other side (of Spring Garden)! —Bookworm

To the lovely fellow in the chicken suit who strolls up and down Young Street: We love you and your cheery waving, and when you take off the chicken head you have a lovely smile. —xox the wavers

I wanna get you in the back seat, windows up

That's the way you like to fuck, clogged up fog alert

Rip the pants and rip the shirt, ruff sex make it hurt

In the garden all in the dirt

—Hot pants n hard lickur

Pizza,beer and dancing under the moonlight sounds great. —Jitterbug

Too often people judge others on their outward appearance or on a small glimpse of their personality. Or what we perceive to be their personality. That's dumb because you could miss out on some really interesting, brave, solid people. What is even worse is if out of your own ignorance you put that person down and you try to make them feel bad simply for being unafraid to be themselves. Thats what I did to you but you got in touch with me and allowed me to apologize for my arrogance and you handled it with such grace that all I could do was feel like a big loser. Though that is my own fault because I acted like a real jerk. Though you did teach me a valuable lesson and that is not to judge somebody because they dress or act a certain way or because they believe certain things and are unafraid to speak up about them. We should all be more like that actually and we should all try and keep an open mind to what others have to say. And if a woman doesn't shave her arm pits then who cares? They are human beings and the fact that people consider it a statement not to shave is what makes that action into a statement. Thank you for being awesome. I will try harder next time not to shit all over someone I don't know because I might be having a lousy day. There's enough negativity in the world and I want to be more like you and spread the opposite. —Drinking Sangria In The Park
