Write me a letter

I love mail

thirteen ounces or less

Did you know that standard postage rates apply to ANYTHING that weighs 13 ounces or less?

Did you know that if you stick enough postage and an address on a random object, the US Postal System will deliver it like a normal letter?

Do you want to run out right now and start mailing silly putty to everyone?

ME TOO.

AmberLee over at Giverslog has been conducting experiments to test this very principle. Check out some of her successes here!

Mail

I love this time of year for so many reasons. But one of those reasons is most certainly the mailbox. For this one month each year, you can be reasonably certain that there will be more than bills and catalogs waiting for you. Instead you will get actual cards in the mail, sent by people, containing information about their lives and often including pictures!

'Tis the season for checking the mail daily instead of weekly at my house.
