sometimes it's hard...

"that's what she said"
Sorry I couldn't help it.
Anywho, sometimes it's hard to find things that make me happy when it comes down to writing this thing.
I think this weeks thing is mail. I love getting mail. It doesn't have to even be a package. A letter, card, heck a postcard makes me happy. Going to the mailbox, checking it and finding a magazine or letter in there is truly an awesome feeling.
Not entirely sure why but I just like it. Maybe it's when you get mail from someone you know they truly put thought into it. Anyone can just shoot a text and hell people barely do that these days so getting a letter means they intended it for you and put forth effort to make sure it gets to you. It means something.
Tomorrow is my birthday, woo. As far as birthdays go I have definitely not been feeling like I matter on this one but I know come tomorrow I will get a bunch of empty "hppy bday, happy birthday," messages sent to me or posted on my facebook wall.
They.Piss.Me.Off.
Honestly? Write more than the shortest possible thing for petes sake! Nothing says facebook reminded you and has no background emotion whatsoever than one of the above messages, even "hope your birthday is grand!" is better than that.
Sorry, I am bitter but this has definitely been a long week/weekend.

I have a huge fear of balloons actually...

I love mail and sending mail :)

To end this on a not angry note... Tomorrow I shall wake up and be 20. 366 days stand before me and 21. I don't really look forward to 21 as much as I used to. I am however looking forward to waking up and opening my birthday card from my friend Hayley that has been taunting me for about a week. Hooray for mail... Also tomorrow is the anniversary of the Frisbee and the day the Vietnam war was declared over if you don't feel like celebrating my birthday, it's okay neither do I.
If you want snail mail from me or wanna send me snail mail feel free to exchange addresses.

  1. I LOVE that my name is on 3 of those envelopes!!!!
    I love you and I feel the same way about birthdays and mail. The world is changing and people care less and less about doing something for someone else for their birthday. A text is not enough. A fb post is not enough. I love you and I am REALLY sorry i cant be with you on your birthday. But I am happy I got to be a part of what you are grateful for this week. Mail! :D
