Open Letters to Random Strangers At My Workplace
Dear Driver of the giant white SUV;
Yes, I'm sure you wanted to turn left the instant you possibly could. However, when the crosswalk signal shows the glowy white-lit person, that means pedestrians get to cross. Also, if you slam on your brakes and call out "Sorry, I didn't see you!" to a person wearing a black and pink outfit with petticoats and a top hat, perhaps you (a) need to get your eyes checked, (b) should pay more attention to your surroundings, (c) not be allowed behind the wheel of a motor vehicle, or (d) ALL OF THE ABOVE.

Dear very "fashion-forward" lady I saw in the cafeteria;
Yes, I'm sure that my black and pink Victorian Cupcake Gothic outfit perplexed you. But you were the one wearing a flesh-colored tank-top under an ivory lace tunic that had an elasticized hem so that it gathered in billowy poofs at your hips. With metallic forest green skinny jeans and orange heels. *I* at least had the self-control not to gawp in vaguely horrified confusion at you, unlike your reaction to me.
