-Packing, boxing, moving, schlepping, and repeat a billion times… Why aren’t you here to help me with this, so we can move into our new place?  You just went through this, so I’d imagine the thought of doing it again, even with me, gives you indigestion.

-I have less than a week to pack-up this whole apartment and get out, and it’s mostly being done by me alone.  I need your mother again.  Fortunately my mother is coming over to help today.  There doesn’t seem to be a lot here, however the more I pack the more there is.  I could use the help.

-I feel bad that I may have miscommunicated or that you may have misconstrued what I meant yesterday.  I’m sorry if the message came across as stern, but I hope you understand the essence of the sentiment.  Feel free to comment here and let me know.

-Tonight I’m going out with T## and his lady love.  I spent some time with them at T##’s place, and they’re a cute couple.  She really adore’s him, and in all the years I’ve known him I have never seen him gush, until now.  It’s very cute.  A foursome for dinner would have been great, but you’re a million miles away.  Put down the paint brush and come home to daddy already.
