December 6, 2006 - God, help me not procrastinate on my writing even though Tiger broke the laptop.
September 8, 2006 - Dear God, please bring Steve Irwin's family peace. The well-loved Crocodile Hunter was stabbed through the heart by a stingray on Monday. He left a wife and two young children.
August 1, 2006 - Dear God, please let me live near my brother and Leah at some point in our lives. I'd love it if we could live near each other right now, but if not . . . then later, please. Just sometime, and for a few years. I know it's not too much for you.
June 9, 2006 - Dear God, please smite spam-bots that spam in the forum.
Please help Alex catch up on his work.
Please keep my cat from knocking my orange juice over in the livingroom while I'm in here typing. You know how curious he is.
June 2, 2006 - Dear God, thank you for helping us through the move. Please smite the incompetent Comcast guy and bless the cool one. Please help our budget work out. Please help our utterly insane new kitty to calm down and stop running at full speed everywhere he goes.
May 12, 2006 - Dear God, thank you for getting me through finals. Please help me survive packing with my mother. She's more anxious about everything than I am. *sigh*
May 6, 2006 - Dear God, help us while we move and help me to overcome my senioritis and actually study for finals.
April 4, 2006 - Dear God, I pray for the woman who killed her husband. I pray for her children. She belongs to the same kind of church I do, so it touches me as it touches all of us, as the nation gets to know us under such circumstances. Let it not, let it never be a reflection on you.
February 27, 2006 - Dear God, my mood has been improving every day since I decided to write instead of go to grad school. I'm looking forward to taking care of an apartment with a kitten and (hope beyond hopes) maybe a dishwasher. ^_^
February 24, 2006 - Dear God, help me get past the wrongs that were done long ago and learn to move on with my life.

January 16, 2006 - Dear God, please help me develop the dedication to be an excellent writer.
January 11, 2006 - Dear God, one of the coolest old ladies in the world died yesterday. My dad and I tease each other to show our affection, and she's kept him on his toes while I've been away. Please tell her she's loved and I miss her. And please help her family, physical and spiritual, while we deal with our loss and celebrate her gain.
January 1, 2006 - Thank you God for my husband. It's our 1-year anniversary. Here's to many more.
December 22, 2005 - Oh, my antibiotic, so pretty and so fun -- Oh, my antibiotic, I stick you on my tongue. Oh, my antibiotic, so pretty and so green -- Oh, my antibiotic, you make me want to scream. (Thank you God for Advil and codine.)
December 21, 2005 - God, please help me heal quickly from my wisdom teeth surgery so I can enjoy good tasty Christmas food this weekend.
December 8, 2005 - Good evening, God. Please help me make good decisions, killer dumplings, and nice stitchwork. I wanna be a LIBRARIAN! And a writer. Woot.
November 29, 2005 - Dear God in Heaven, GET ME THROUGH FINALS! Please?
November 11, 2005 - Dear God, I will be in class from 8-5 on Tuesdays and Thursdays next semester. HELP!
November 8, 2005 - Dear God, I have too much stuff to do. Speech, power point, senior seminar, studying, notecards, reading responses. Help!
November 6, 2005 - Dear God, it's my birthday. My in-laws forgot. I'm having friends over.
November 3, 2005 - Dear God, I'm kinda shaky because of my writing workshop. It was scary. Help me calm down?
October 25, 2005 - Thank you God for vomit. Vomit is better than going to class right now. I'm way too stressed.
April 9, 2005 - Dear God, help me write with swift awesomeness. I want to finish one of these dang stories!
March 16, 2005 - Dear God, you rock. Thank you for bringing me Alex, he makes me happy. Thank you for swift memorization skills, they save my butt on tests. And thank you for my family, and please don't let my kitty die anytime soon because I want lots of future kitty-cuddling. I'm going through cat-withdrawl right now.
January 13, 2005 - Dear Lord, thank you for a beautiful and happy wedding. Please bless my friends and family and help my marriage prosper in love for each other and love for you.
December 24, 2004 - Dear God, bless my upcoming marriage and my family and friends. Please let everything go well for my mother, though I'll be happy even if my dress is doused in punch, I trip going down the aisle, or the church catches on fire -- as long as I get to marry Alex by the end of it.
December 9, 2004 - Dear God, may I speak with wisdom and fill my heart with love.
November 19, 2004 - Dear God, I made up a song today: "The world is happy and bright / When you've been sleeping all night! / And life is pleasant and sweet / When your mommy's making good things for you to eat!" It has a bouncy tune. ^_^
November 12, 2004 - Dear God, please make my efforts to be extra friendly and caring today make up somehow for the drop my grade might take because I was too busy being extra friendly to remember that senior seminar I was supposed to attend. Stupid goodwill toward mankind -- you cost me extra credit points! *shakes puny fist at my own stupid niceness* And help me remember to attend the next one, or my grade will be hurt.
November 9, 2004 - Dear God, please ignore my last prayer and bless the people who live above me so that their blessings rise on poofs of warm air, rising and growing like super-yeast. And forgive me for being angry. I sent them a polite note and they were really good last night.
November 7, 2004 - Dear God, please destroy with plague and pestilence the girls that live above me. They think it's fun to run, shriek, and move heavy furniture every night once I'm in bed. I want them dead.
November 5, 2004 - Dear Lord, happy birthday to me. And sweet the librarians giving me a noisemaker. They made my day. ^_^ So thank you for librarians and thank you for you.

October 29, 2004 - Dear Lord, thank you for caring. And weekends. We all love weekends.
October 26, 2004 - Dear Lord, please protect the squirrels from the squirrel-maimer on campus. I'm really upset about that poor squirrel they found. Hunting and killing and eating is one thing, but someone cutting squirrels up for fun really disturbs me.
October 21, 2004 - Dear Lord, thank you for giving me no homework this week so that I might relax after midterms. And thank you for helping us to start jogging so that I can fit into my wedding dress.
October 15, 2004 - Dear Lord, please help me survive this next weekend and do well on my project and test. And . . . *sigh* bless my grammar teacher even if we could get A's if she died.
October 13, 2004 - Dear God, thank you for helping me remember those many many many many many facts on my Archaeology test today. Now please help me get my 100 pages of reading done by Friday!
October 1, 2004 - Dear Lord, thank you for the good grades that make me happy and the bad grades that remind me to study. You are merciful and just.
