,Dear Randall

I really miss you! This afternoon while you were probably basking in the San Diego

sun, I was having my interview with the Vice-President of Marketing of Smith

Corporation. Wow, is he ever a hard nut to crack! I’ve met with him three times so

far and I’m having a hard time convincing him that I’m the top-notch candidate for

the job. H’s forever reminding me that I’m too young and inexperienced for this

high-stress position. I’ll be seeing him tomorrow at 7:00 a.m. to go over my

.portfolio. Keep you fingers crossed

That’s enough about my situation out here. What about you? Have you been feeding

the dog? Have you been getting my mail for me? I hope you haven’t been working

.too hard

Randall, I’ve been thinking pretty seriously about your marriage proposal. Don’t you

think that twenty-four is a bit young to go to the altar? Besides, neither of us has a

decent job yet and we should really be off to a good start professionally and

financially before we tie the knot. I’m not saying no, but I guess we just need a little

.more time

See you on Friday. Let’s hope that I’m the new International Marketing Director for

.Smith Corporation by then

,Sincerely

Mitsy
