an open letter

Dear Esthers,

Is it wrong for me to find it weird that there are three of you on my friends list?
(There's only like forty people on my friends list, way less if you only count the people that update.)

Sincerely,
Matthew

That is strange.
Esther is kind of a rare name.
At Piper's I wear a name tag that says Esther Sales Associate. Once when I was checking people in at the cash and woman came through in the line with a Sobeys name tag that said the same thing but Sobeys instead of Pipers. And her name was Esther!!

We both had Esther name tags on at the same time!

Thanks for the postcard I got it a couple of days ago.

Dear Matthew,
I guess it's kind of strange? In high school I was good friends with 2 other Esther's that were seniors- one was Esther Kim (same last name too!) and the other was Esther Kang.

I think it doesn't strike me quite as odd because I think Esther's sort of a common Korean femme name.

whoa, i too am an Esther Kim. i knew a lot of Korean Esther's too, growing up, Han, Park, etc. but these days i'm only aware of one other Esther that registers on my sonar of life. so yes, i consider it weird, especially since you're not korean.

i'm korean. so were the other 2 esther's i was friends with in high school
