I realize that you've already said you're over the 'poor me' bit, but I'll go ahead and post my two cents.
Point 1:
I like you. You are a wonderfully spiffy person and you're a ton of fun to be around. Seriously. You always make me and Steph laugh-and in the good "Heeheehee, Carl is so funny and sarcastic and let's hang around with him to see what else he says." type way, too.
Point 2:
Losing weight, don't give up on it. We love you anyway, but if it will make YOU feel better about yourself, than it's defintely worth doing. WE already see how special you are, but you need to realize it too.
And I've rather stupidly made a bet with Mom that I can lose fifty pounds before she does, so I'll be your weight loss cheerleader if you'll be mine. (There's a hundred dollars involved in this bet, I'd REALLY like to win it.)
Point 3:
Any time you want to talk, just call me. I have mastered the art of leaving my cell phone on at all times, so you can't use that excuse. And I keep it on my nightstand, so even if you need to talk in the middle of the night, I'll hear it. (I just won't be able to speak coherently for the first couple of minutes, but I'll get over that part.)
