There's always the military I guess...

Dear Cate,
I'm updating this instead of writing a 10 page paper for my Theories of Counseling class that's due Tuesday. Real heroes don't do their homework until the day before it is due. I'm a death defying dare devil. Alliteration.

I need your help. I have recently decided that I need a pretty big change in my life of some sort. All of my friends are doing crazy grown up things like getting married and having babies and stuff. I'm just a lame-o living in Gardner, working as an assistant, and going to school. I need a new adventure. This is where you come in. I'm going to need you to help me think of something that I could do that would be as cool as what all my friends are doing. Aside from meeting and marrying Demetri Martin or following Tony Gonzalez to Atlanta, I'm out of ideas.

Love,
Riss

Or I could just wear sunglasses all the time

Dear Riss,

I'm a little upset that you didn't go with one of my recommendations when getting a new job. But fine- "congratulations" anyway. Now that you've been working for a couple of weeks and we don't have to focus on that anymore- it's time for a more important subject. My eyebrows. I have never really been happy with my eyebrows, they are naturally so bushy and shapeless. I admit, I haven't been the best at upkeep- but it's like trying to wrangle two unruly feather dusters. What I'm trying to say here is that I'm thinking of doing an eyebrow makeover and I just want to confirm your buy-in. Do you think it's a good idea? Do you have any recommendations on style or shape? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Love,
Cate
