Sincerely Yours by d_sieya
Sorry to post so much today. I was sort of slack in the reccing business and I'm trying to catch up so that I can stop feeling guilty about neglecting my duties.

I've always had a weakness for epistolary fic and this particular story hit me right in my sweet spot. Basically, we have a month's worth of correspondence between Sheldon and various family members. Which means Missy, Mary and Meemaw (the Holy Trinity!), who really need to be in about 50% of Big Bang Theory fanfic.

Dear Mom:
Recently I have gauged your purpose in sending me the same e-mail every year and I must inform you that, no, I did not engage nor do I ever intend to engage with a romantic partner in the overly-commercialized celebration of the martyrdom of St. Valentine. It should be noted that there is no actual historical documentation that the man was a patron of marriage; in fact, that particular notion is simply a sentimental rumor posing as actual fact.
I should further elaborate that according to your standards this particular Valentine's Day was worse than most. I spent all of it with Penny, who gave me the flu after I made the mistake of initiating physical contact with her. I am feeling slightly better due to a meticulous medication schedule, but Penny has declined and I am forced to care for her as well. It's horrible.
Sincerely,
Dr. Sheldon Cooper, PhD.
This story is charming, funny and just the right thing to read on a glum day when you could use a little cheering up.
If you enjoy this story, please take a minute to leave a comment for the writer.
OK, that's enough spamming of your friends lists for one day, even if it was for a good cause.
