One-Way Letters

It's nearly impossible to rely on the (snail) mailing system when your apartment is right across your complex and there is no outbox for mail where the mailboxes are. Your leasing office will tell you to call the post office and the post office will tell you to call your leasing office. Good service they have here in NB. Getting a P.O. Box address costs money and using other people's mailboxes is a hassle.

With those complaints and present mishaps at hand I figured I'd write to my mail recipients anyway. To my bestie in Berkeley I wrote her two long letters, one from my apartment and another from work. To my bestie in Davis, girl needs to start at least returning my phone calls so I at least can figure where she's even living! To my other usual pen pal in Santa Cruz, she's getting a postcard from me. And of course, since I miss them so, my sisters got a postcard of their own. I forgot how much I missed being able to write something outside of class. It's such a stress reliever. This needs to become a habit again.
