Mail is awesome.

I have the best friends a girl could ever hope to have. Unfortunately, they keep moving away from me. They do know how to send some pretty killer care packages which doesn't make up for the thousands of miles wedged between them and me but it does count for something.

Here are the contents of the last two I got:

#1 West Coast: No note, no card, no letter. Just the following items:
  • Farmer's market beef jerky
  • Pale green nail polish (Peas and Q's)
  • A mixed cd called "Cupcakes and Milk"
  • Mad Libs for grown ups called "Kiss me, I'm single"
  • Fruit Stripe gum
#2 East Coast: An adorable card that said, "Hope this entertains you and your bum foot for at least 5 or 6 minutes."
  • Homemade granola bars
  • 3 tank tops
  • A whole bunch of books
  • Jalapeno stuffed green olives
  • Sweet notecards + a matching pad of paper
Could they know me any better? No. It isn't even possible.

In the spirit of sending and receiving fun mail, I'm going to send someone a mini-care package.
If you need a little pick-me-up, or just love getting mail that isn't a bill, leave me a comment with your email address. {International entries are fine.} One person will be picked at random on Thursday!

I love real mail too
You've inspired me to write a real note to grandma

You know my email address

but you can exclude me from your drawing.......Dean wants to be included though! HAHA!

Promise it won't have nail polish in it? Not that I couldn't come up with things to do with it, but you probably don't want to see the results.

Dean is on the list :)

I promise nothing!

Waaaait a minute... it's the 31st of August. If you hadn't posted I would have completely missed it, but I believe the date could be accurately called a Sidenotversary. Many happy returns of the day! No cupcakes this year, but it sounds like you're well taken care of anyway. ;)

Aw all my friends move away too. My best friend in preschool, my best friend in kindergarten, my best friend in 1st through 5th was home schooled for 6-8, we met back up in high school and then she moved to Oregon junior year and now she's in Ecuador. Two real close friends in college both moved away. It's quite a record I have going and I'm the type to only have a few real close friends (who always move away).
