dear teneal,

don’t do that again. you can not possibly use me as a pivot point every time you wish to throw your uncle off your back in a wrestling match. i wish no involvement in your stupidity. to impress this lesson upon you, i slipped my mooring. while you may be all better now thanks to your uncle and his medical training, next time i might just stay off the bones i protect.

sincerely,
mr. pat ella
currently serving as your left kneecap

TO: mr. pat ella “shifty”
CC: Nociceptor Incorporated, misters neospinothalamic and paleospinothalamic,

you are members of my body.
if you wish to continue your tenure, i suggest you cease your rebellion.

pat- you’re back in place. good job. stay there. further deviation from your assigned location will result in eviction.

mr. neo- you did your job. my yells of “Oh shit!” at the time of your correspondence with a one mr. t. halamus (who currently resides in my brain) prove that. you forgot one thing- dinner and a movie. next time you wish to rape him, at least bring flowers.

mr. paleo- i have the most issues with you, as you alone have not ceased contacting me. yes, i understand that there is an issue with my knee requiring my attention. these constant reminders are doing little more than annoying me. as i stated before; you are an occupant of my body. that means you will follow my rules. you’re grounded from my nerves, mister paleospinothalamic tract. i am sending one mrs. ibu profen to handle your deviancy.

most sincerely, your mistress
teneal ann
