My Dearest Microsoft Outlook,

I appreciate the fact that you deliver me so many emails for both my job and my grad school program, I really do! It's just that, as much as I know that you're just trying to be helpful, I really do know how to spell my own name. Now, I know that you're going to insist that it's not your fault, but you won't let me add any words to the web based mail service... what's up with that?

Now, I know that we're kind of stuck with each other on a daily basis, both at work and in school. But all I'm saying is for you to please lay off, okay? Plus, I've never met anyone who spells their name the way you suggest, although I'm sure they exist and that they appreciate your trying to mainstream their name spelling. Are you up to something, Outlook?

I will be a grown up about this and will do my best to grin and bear it. We should be able to coexist. But Outlook, my patience is starting to wear thin. I think that you just wanted to know.

Best,
Chrysanthemum (although you know my real name)
