As much as I bitch every day (in my head) about the Hfx drivers, I have to thank the van and truck behind me on the newly paved section of the 102 today.

They were paying attention, noticed, and backed off when I hydroplaned, COMPLETELY lost control of the car, went back and forth (sideways at times) across the two lanes and came within an INCH (no lie!) of the concrete divider, not once, not twice, but THREE freakin' times!

Thanks for not plowing into me before I regained control!

And more importantly, thanks Dad, for being on my shoulder when I needed you most. Again. —Outta Control Chick

To the hoodie-wearing Coffee Shop employee working this morning: you served me a coffee/hot chocolate and you were so great. Your friendliness made my rainy midterm morning so much brighter. This is why your coffee house is always my favourite place to be. —Studious customer

I'm so glad you moved to the city! You made me realize how wonderful Halifax is again by getting to show you around and going to some of my favorite spots. I forgot how much some of them meant to me and we even got to discover some new ones that we can now share together! —Reinvented

So much. —Weeekeeend

You talked me into moving here three years ago this coming Spring. I just want to thank you for taking me with you. We don't always see eye to eye but we love and play hard and we like the same things. You set up my tea mug in the morning and wash apples for me to take to work. You are my best friend and my love and I want you to know that I'm happy to be here with you and I'd follow you to the moon should that be next. All my love. —Your Girl. xoxx

Thanks for the knock to let me know that I'd left my keys in my office door! —Absentminded Grad Student

You're always sweet, never mean, you're cute and funny and don't attack... <3 —Me

Whenever I need you, you are there for me. We finger paint, go for walks and dance in the grass together. I feel so alive when we are all together, like nothing in the world can hurt me. It is amazing that we found each other, considering that we quickly moved on from the place we met. But as the years go by I feel our friendship growing stronger and I want you all to know that you all inspire me, and that I would not be me without all of you. —CR

From the moment I first saw you I knew that you were the one. You had such a beautiful smile and when we talk everything around us disappears.

I didn't know what true love was until I met you. I know that you have no hope of reading this, for you are home in your tiny village in Africa as we speak. While other couples walk past me laughing, holding hands, I cannot help but long for you. Although we are so far apart I want you to know that every single day I think about you. Even if I only had 1 day a year to spend with you I would still marry you all over again.

A few weeks ago, while walking through a South End park, you stumbled upon an unusually sight. But you didn't veer away from your chosen course, and you didn't cry out and shout and make a scene or get angry. Really, you didn't interrupt the fornicating couple rolling around in the grass probably about 8ft from your path, merely coughing lightly once you saw us, giving us enough time to scramble into our clothes to try to save some semblance of decency. Thanks —Funny After the Fact
