To my committee
Umm...hi....it's me.
So...I know you guys are really busy....but I was wondering if...umm....you had looked at my comps proposal?
Because, umm....well...the feedback is due by the fifteenth....and...umm....that's today.
And I know that you're stressed out....and the whole tenure thing for some of you...but...umm...I was kind of hoping that we could talk about the proposal...well, really, just if you accepted it or not...so maybe you could look it over sometime?
I mean, I don't want to pressure you or anything....but....well....I was kind of hoping to start reading for it sometime....so....umm....
Well...you have my e-mail address...and you know where my mailboxes are....so....
Hope you had a good break and all.....

Oh man, I totally sympathize (but from smaller scale frustrations).. good luck! (At least they can't punish you when the missed deadline is their fault... right?)
