NO. we get nothing for free. If I want to mail something or buy stamps, I have to wait in line like everyone else. (or use the self serve machine or order online)

It's been ages since I've seen any self-serve machines. They've taken them out of every PO I get into. What's up with that?
From what I hear they are installing more, so they can eliminate some jobs and save money.
you may beat her to it, but you cannot stop her!

I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.

and have creepy old men hit on you. and hear strange stories. I guess 2 out of 3 isn't bad.
Get to read other people's post cards, too.
and that. also, I get to see some cool prison art on inmate mail.
uh...not sure i want to see prison art
there are actually some very elaborate/detailed pencil drawings on the outside of the envelopes. There must be rules because nothing pornographic, lots of big cats, faces, flowers...
i just bought some postcards for those of you who haven't received a card from me yet. now i have to think of something to write on them.

I got two postcards from Petra! Woo! I will definitely go to Twist and Shout if I ever get to Denver, and I LOVE that you took these pictures yourself, Petra!
Yippee I got a post card from Gretchen.
I have them blue tac'd to my wall to remind me that there is a real world outside my office. :)

I got postcards from Lori and Petra a couple days back...thanks, guys! I had to explain you to my wife. She didn't mind.
RA are your keeping us secret?
Only you, Gail, as our polygamous marriage has been floated as a possibility.
Shoot, I knew I should've sent the post card under an assumed name.
What do you mean a possibility? Are you having cold feet? I have the dress ready. :(

I have standards, you know.
It's a surprise, you can't see it until the day.
Always stylish.

i'm posting my cards later today. i'm afraid what i wrote on them won't make any sense as i was dead tired when i wrote them.
my cards are now in the mail. i also got a card from kate today (i'll forgive you for thinking my name is sara). and yes, i like it too.
It's so hard to tell everyone apart without the avatars. Sorry, Janine! Glad you liked the painting.
just got two more cards. one from kate and one from gail. very cool. much thanks!!
I got mine from Gail too. I'd love to come see all those things in the pictures.
I'm working on some post cards, as I can't find anything here except for Texas related crap. I'll draw you all something...do NOT expect to be wowed!
Ha I could only find Australian related crap! I sent it anyway. :D
Mod
I got Gail's too! Thanks, Australian! I showed my kids...they thought Australian mail was cool.

Sally several responses have been typed & deleted. You have me squirming in my chair wondering how I am going to wiggle out of this one.
Queenslanders are a special breed of their own. I was prepared to let them fly of the face of the planet. It was my contribution to balance things up once Texas got the flick.

Just so you all know, it's okay to say whatever you like about Texas, I will not be offended. I'm only living here temporarily (very temporarily if I have it my way), I do not like Texas AT ALL!
I can't really comment on Texas. I can only comment on Queenslanders, the warm weather has fried their brains.
I just checked the mail box in the off chance that there might be a postcard. This close to Christmas the posties deliver on Saturdays. I didn't get one...
NO, I GOT THREE. A gorgeous one from Kate, and two super ones from ms petra. Thanks guys I love getting these postcards. :)
