February 7: Send a Postcard to a Friend Day

For a variety of reasons, this is going to be a short entry.  The first of those reasons being that postcards APPARENTLY don't exist outside of tourist areas anymore.  The second being that I'm like ten days behind.  OH MY GOD, DEAL WITH IT.  That wasn't fair.  I didn't mean that.  Seriously though...

Astro-sloth burn!

Both Justin and I loved the simplicity of this holiday and how easy it (theoretically) would be to celebrate.  The instructions are literally in the name.  There are so few things like that in the world.  So, while I was at work, Justin ran out to several stores looking for postcards.

The key word there being SEVERAL.  He went to the grocery, the Target, the Wal-mart and two pharmacies.  NOTHIN'.  So - in the spirit of the holiday and because he's awesome, we both wrote card-cards to close friends of ours.  He sent his to Jeff W. and I sent mine to Ben & Lisa P.  YES I SNAGGED A TWO-FER.  What of it?

We didn't manage to get them into the mail until the next day because we are just SUPER lazy people.  But we both loved taking a moment to think about a couple people we care about.  It is easy to see bits and pieces of people's lives on Facebook and not really stop and think about how they impact your life.  So, Jeff, Lisa and Ben - we love you and you're wonderful and we definitely think of you more often than we say out loud.  We're... gonna work on that...
