o.o....Everyday I wake up, go to check mail, go back to bed (if it's too early), this may happen up to fifteen times... (I live in a university residence, checking mail=sitting up)
Last week I only got 3 letters, and they all came on monday. It depressed me for the 4 other days....
I'm hopeing to get mail this monday or tuesday (I'm leaving wednesday, and all mail i receive aftewr that will be returned to sender, I've prepared, but I'm still waiting on some letters to arrive)
I

Mail...

Once i started collecting, i also started to love checking the mail. I am very excited when I check the mail, because I used to never get anything. but now I do. Not very often since i'm pretty new, but I LOVE MAIL! I'm w/ ya!! I'm always very hppy to get home from school, and ask my mom if i got anything. the only day i really check the mail myself, is on saturaday, and i'm sad there is know mail on sunday

Thanks to this hobby I'm freakishly obsessed with the mail and all things related to the post office.

I´m not so bad anymore. My first autographs came in 2002. And I have had couple of breaks and then I started again.
I also managed very well. I wasn´t part of any of these collection sites.

I also wait for the mail, but when I don´t get any autogrpahs ( only bills) I just think, damn, maybe tomorrow

I have had around 30 penplas when I was 12, 13, 14 years old so I got 10 letters on some days (all of them were from Slovenia and usually we replied to each other the same day as we got the letter

Crazy! Luckily postage was not so expensive), I remember once coming back from holiday and there were like 30 letters waiting for me. Great feeling! ;) So that's when I started to enjoy getting mail and that continued and it still does

Yea, I love getting letters! I love checking mail and I hate when there's nothing for me or just a bill for my parents (because when seeing a white envelope I always get excited an d I am always VERY disappointed when finding out it's just a bill)...

Haha, I love coming home from school and heading to the mailbox now, whenever I get an envelope that's addressed to me I get all excited lol.
When I received my Jeff Dunham autograph I pulled it out, went through the mail on top of it and when I got to the big white envelope I saw my name and smiled figuring it was an autograph, I then looked at the return address and became confused, I didn't recognize the name or address, but I looked back to my name again, and sadly it took me this long to realize that was my hand writing and that the only white envelope I sent out was to Jeff Dunham. I walked back to the house very very very quickly. I love these little freak out sessions when getting the mail!
