Last night Dave came over to give me my birthday present, it was......... A COMPUTER! It's one of his old ones from work, it's a PC and apparently a slow one but I don't care right now - I have a computer! Which means I can try and make some extra money and become rich and famous at last, well maybe just rich, I'll be OK with that.

I forgot to take a picture of the computer but what I do have a picture of is a letter I wrote to BRAD PITT! Yip you read right... I went through my old diaries last night and this letter fell out of one of them. I figured if I could read it to Dave then I could let everyone else see. It's so incredibly funny. I think I was 16 at the time... (I have highlighted my favorite cringe worthy bits)

TO: Brad Pitt

Hi! My name is Debbie Farrell, I live in South Africa. Some people don't like the idea of coming to South Africa because all they picture is violence and terror. But it isn't as bad as that! Sure, there are places that need some help, but, South Africa is really a wonderful, beautiful, historical place! If you take time to actually think back and see how far we have come along, at creating a more peaceful community, It is actually really a wonderful place!

There are so many beautiful placed to go see. there is the Cape Town waterfront, Durban, but, my favorite is to go to the Drakensburg mountains, they are just magnificent! It is an amazing place to go and be by ones self, to think things through, to be one with nature!

Along with this letter I have sent some pictures of the places to go to, in case you're ever in the neighborhood and want to go somewhere beautiful!

Well, I've read how much you love nature, so, I thought you might be interested!

If it's not too much trouble do you think you could possibly send me some pictures of some nice places to go overseas as I'm very interested in traveling, and of your new Gothic house, it sounds very beautiful, like a fantasy!

Thank you

Debbie farrell

What I don't get is why I was asking him to send me pictures of places to go instead of pictures of his torso??!!
