The following email hit my inbox this morning. It reminded me that we are all in too much of a hurry these days to exchange pleasantries anymore. How many thank you cards did you send out last year? Me, plenty! And I didn't get married, have a kid or do anything of that nature. I just had parents that instilled the importance of the "thank you". The following note was unexpected and a reminder that my friends rock! It most certainly helps me keep on truckin'.

Hi Souris,
I wanted to thank you again for suggesting me for the XXXXX book review - apparently they've decided to accept me, and have shipped the book.
You're awfully nice to have gone out of your way to make that introduction, and I appreciate it.
I hope things are going well for you? and that you're having FUN?
Best,
Kathleen
