Dear [Lynn],
Wow, where are you mailing from? Your email address is in a different format this time. Usually it looks as follows:
[...]
but in this note, your proper name is missing. You must be using a different mailer today – which would make sense, since you’re probably “on the road” at this point. 
Enjoy your trip. Talk to you tomorrow.
Tom
Dear [Lynn],
Hey, want to track the Nasdaq and Dow with up to the minute readings? Check out . . .
Just got this from Jeeves.
Tom
Dear [Lynn],
Well, I was up around 5:00. And the sky was beginning to lighten then. No sun though until after 6:00. Don’t forget, I’m in the shadow of Brush Mountain here.
Tom
Dear [Lynn],
Well, the flood made your day interesting. Well, at least the water didn’t get inside. If it had, the expense of this little tragedy might be much bigger than it is now.
The tooth feels somewhat better, but yes, I’ll continue taking the meds every 4 to 6 hours.
Well, I’m off to watch Judge Judy. Will chat with you more later.
Tom
Dear [Lynn],
We have a release tonight at 9:00 and it should wrap up at around 9:30 if no problems are encountered. Will call you when it’s over, assuming it doesn’t get finished past 10:00.
Tom
Dear [Lynn],
Yep, things went well and they’re moving forward. Will tell you about it later. *meow*
Just got back from the grocery store and bought 4 bags of the salad starters we discussed the other night. Also bought some Italian garlic dressing for them. *yum* Will have the first one for lunch tomorrow.
Enjoy your rehearsal.

Dear [Lynn],
Well, I just got back from the [Dentist] appointment. They found that the bite on the temporary crown was too high, and this put lots of extra pressure on that tooth during chewing, and interfered with healing. So, they had to numb me again, take it off, grind it out some more, and re cement it.
And, he explained that there is probably some swelling near the nerve of that tooth, and he wants me to continue taking the ibuprofen for its anti inflammatory qualities. It should help reduce the swelling, and the associated pain as well. I’m to take one pill every 4 to 6 hours for the next 3 days. But at least, it’s not hurting now. We’ll see how it does once the novocaine wears off.
Later.
Tom
Dear [Lynn],
They [sleeping bears] just goad more. They NEVER argue, even when just awakening.
Tom
Dear [Lynn],
No. What did your mother say to you about leafy greens while you were growing up?
Tom
Dear [Lynn],
You just better be good. I can get up any hour of the day you want, even though I do sleep until it starts getting light out normally – very late by your standards.
Yep, set a place, please. I’m hungry. 
Sorry about [your daughter] not visiting as planned this weekend. It’s a shame that in order to see her, it seems that you have to pay for her boyfriend as well. Yuck.
That’d be almost as bad as Mom, asking me to bail [her live-in lover] out of jail. Not that she’s ever done that. But the siblings and me sometimes ponder about that – if he were to be taken to jail, would we help bail him out? And the answer is a resounding “NO!”
Gray and damp here. No rain though but looks like the entire day is going to be cloudy.
Tooth is somewhat better, although the pain is starting to return. I’d better go and take more medicine.
Hmmm. Well, I can still harass. In fact, I probably harass harder when in pain.
Welcome to the work-at-home life style today.
Hey, I love leafy greens. I’m just too lazy to prepare them. It seems that every time I buy lots of fresh veggies, most of them go to waste.
You? Working? Yea, right!
I had forgotten about the bags of greens. I’ve had them at times. What kind of dressing do you put on them?
I just meant that you better not tease me too much. Don’t want to awaken a sleeping bear, do you?
Ah. Okay. [You havd a] dentist appointment at 10:45.
Enjoy your day, dear.
Tom
