    In an effort to make my life less boring, I've decided I need a penpal or six. If anyone wants to BE my penpal, list a topic of conversation and PM me your Mailing address.

    It'll be fun! I'll send mine to you too and you can write me a letter while I'm writing one for you.

    :)

    I wanna see who responds.

    You still have our address, don't you? We still live at the same place unless this is a parallel galaxy, in which I'll probably be charged with B&E ;)

    I actually don't. A little gremlin (Kahlyn) Ate (made confetti of) my address books. So I lost everyone. ;)

    You're not going to turn this into one of those pyramid schemes where you ask the recipient to send you a $1 in an envelope, is it? j/k I wonder if people actually make money doing that stuff! LOL

    Snail mail, i'm tired of bills. Bills SUCK.

    I've seen those... My friend Lynette did one, convinced she was going to make money. I wonder if she ever did...

    I sent out Postcards to Goldfish, N5638J, MeanDog, Phantom, MCadam & GT to make sure I got the addresses right. I have one going out today to Gensuknives. They're Dilbert. I'm pretty sure most of you should have gotten them by now, I'm not sure why the locals haven't. I think it takes a week or two to get to Aussie maybe to UK, but not Georgia :p

    Damn postal system
     
  21. N5638J

    N5638J Guest

    it should get here today.

    It takes 10 days from the USA to the UK. However, it takes anything over 2 weeks from the UK to the USA. The UK international postal system is totally crap!

    Unless you send it recorded first class, I've got mail there in 2 days a few times :D

    Wenchie I R teh brat

    Yes you can dear :) It's just something to do.. although, soon I may have to turn off my internet - money problems - So i will only have email at work
     
  26. Phantom

    Phantom Brigadier Britches

    Yeah, It usually takes 1 week, or so for letter mail, and about 2-3 for parcels (sea-mail).

    Thanks hun, I'm including something as well, so be patient, young grasshopper. ;)

    Does this mean actually sitting down with a writing implement that has graphite, and or ink? :p

    goldfish Lt. Sushi.DC

    YAY I got my postcard today :) One extra sized smile!

    Unfortunately, I also got my own letter back to me today - RTS: not enough postage. Stupid post office woman, didn't give me the right number of stamps!!! Oh well, never mind. I'll make damn sure she gets it right this time.
     
  33. Wenchie

    Wenchie I R teh brat

  37. goldfish

    goldfish Lt. Sushi.DC

    No poo! :rolleyes: Maybe it'd be easier to walk over there and deliver it myself.....:D

    I've not resent yet due to schools, should be worth it when it EVENTUALLY gets there though...

    Yuppers, costs $1:10 in stamps for postcards from Oz to U.S.A./Canada - and that's cheaper than ordinary mail. Not a "break the bank" amount, but adds up when sending out a few. ( No, I haven't forgotten! ;) ).
