    I'm at my grandparents for the weekend and I just got a call from my parents saying that I got two cards addressed to me! I can't wait to go home and see who they are from. I feel like an idiot though, apperantly I gave Stillhere my address and I messed up and added a extra number. :oops:

    I think everything will be ok....my in laws live in a small town, so they were not used to 'numbered streets' like bigger cities have. Well when my SO was living at an address that was ' 555 237th Street', his sister sent him some cookies and she addressed it: '555 200 37th street'....it took 3 months....but we finally got the christmas cookies....just in time for Valentine's Day! :lol::lol::lol:

    Stamps finally arrived...with a catalog! like I really want to order anymore stamps from you?!?!? :evil:
    Cards will be on their way out the door tomorrow!

    Oh! thank-you Smoking Baby for your witty card....very charming! ;)
    And to the champion doggie owner (Unlost Dogs)... :thumbup: :wave: (there is a town about 2 hours from me with the same name....they turned it into a 'Western' themed town, complete with wooden sidewalks....now I get a mental image of you wearing chaps! :lol: ) I am also a tad ashamed I did not place my pups into an extracurricular activity :( ...well there's always time to get some fresh new blood to be molded into the perfect specimen soon.

    My dear woman, I can assure you I do not wear chaps. :shock:

    But if I did, they would be fringed. 8-)

    I arrived home to find a card all the way from New Zealand, with a lovely note from Tinkerbelle! I've never had mail from New Zealand before, and for a moment I hoped it was from Viggo Mortensen asking me to come and join him while they film "The Hobbit" but then I realized that I don't even know if they're filming that yet, and even if they are, I don't think Aragorn was in "The Hobbit."

    But I digress... anyway, I was happy to have a card from Tinkerbelle and it gave me a chuckle and now is prominently featured in my front room. Thanks Tink!

    Also, I had a card from someone named Sheri with no return address or other identifying information. I have no idea if it's someone from here or from some other part of my life that I am blanking on. I think it says Sheri. Maybe it's Sheryl? Shirl?

    81, is your real name Shirl? :lol: :shock:

    You're welcome Unlost Dogs & cat72. Interesting it took 2 weeks to get from NZ to US. :geek:
    Sorry Unlost - The Hobbit isn't being filmed yet and Aragon isn't in it :cry: . Damn that Viggo is fine!

    Pearl Jam has brought me so much in the past 20 years, too much to mention here,
    but by far the best thing is the wonderful people I've met through our shared love of the music.


    Miss Tinkerbell, thank you for your generous spirit and kind words,
    they mean more than you know! You are a person to be cherished :D

    It is true..... love makes the world smaller!! thx.gif
