Dear D.I.

Dear Deseret Industries,

We have been friends for such a long time. I've given and you've taken and you've given to me and I've boughten. Over the years our friendship has blossomed and grown. At first I was shy and I wondered what others would think of me if they saw me hanging out with you but you've never let on that you were embarassed. You stood there waiting patiently for me to warm up to you.

We've had some great laughs especially shopping for costumes. Oh we've had some good times. That is..until last week. I know I shouldn't let my feelings get hurt so easily but we do have quite a long history and I thought that well....you know......I was good enough for you.

When I brought by my recliner and you wouldn't take it, I was just so hurt! I mean my first reaction was I'll admit.....I was upset. I mean, beggers can't be choosers right? And for you to say my chair wasn't good enough? Not good enough for who? I bought that with my meager funds from a garage sale for the incredible amount of 25 bucks! It was good enough for my family for several years and so I thought I'd share some of the love.......you know........but I guess I'm just not good enough.

Sooo, I'm kinda down in the dumps. Well, the recliner is now. I had to take it to the dump.

IS THAT ANY WAY TO TREAT A GIFT FROM A LONG TIME FRIEND? Okay, so I'm still ticked I guess. I mean, who do you think you are? ZCMI or something?

Your used and trashy friend.......

sigh...........

  1. It hurts - I know I've been there. Just give it some time (and some desperation) and somehow the wound will heal.

  4. Oh this is timely, I just took my recliner to DI? What did they say was wrong with it? I was afraid they wouldn't take mine, it had a few missing buttons, but maybe it was dark and they didn't notice it!
