Tremendously yours, Anna

Today I saw plants from my girlhood: sand dollars, trumpet vine, wysteria, onion grass, star moss, snapdragons. I only ever really want to buy bouquets of snapdragons or queen anne's lace. The room is hot and my brow is cool. My formalities cripple my ability to send notes to strangers: "sincerely" is too coldly formal, I am often not "yours", and "cheers" and "best" are the verbal equivalent of flip flops. I've settled on either "Regards" or "Best Regards" depending on my level of exuberance. Naturally, I'll close notes to people I know any which way: "Very surely" "Awfully" and "Tremendously" are late favorites.
