    Speaking of stabbing small kittens, have you read the article about the boyfriend who killed his girlfriend's kitty by smashing it under a mattress? I'm glad she left him @_@.

    Wtf? I would smash his face under a mattress.

    I usually use just "Regards"
    Occaisionally, I will use "omfgwtfbbq"
    I've been thinking about switching to "semper fidelis" just to be snide. I probbaly will one day, when I can afford to.

    You could, alternatively, not use any closing word/phrase. Most of my professors do that.

    Teresa says:
    "Regards" is a little on the pretentious side (not that "semper fidelis" is any better). I rather like "omgwtfbbq." I will allow you to join me on my Letter-Writing Revamp Committee.

    I use "Cheers" for my personal and work emails. I'm often emailing people who work in offices in other countries--people I'll likely never meet--so I like to think "Cheers" makes me sound friendly and approachable. Sometimes I'll throw in a smiley for good measure (like so). :)

    i say "eat cake for breakfast" because i feel like embodies you entirely. save the whales is a little too hayden pannattiere and the sugar one is too pink for me. that's all. even if it seems a little out there-- most employers say they are looking for something with a little quirk. i feel like quirk can work if it's genuine. what could be more genuine than teresa telling you to eat cake? Nothing

    Btw I actually do use hearts as bullet points on my resume haha--and I put dancing to Spice Girls in my underwear as an interest :]. I guess I'm young so it's okay...
