Hee Haw

Wednesday, February 16th, 2005

I just finished re-re-re-re-re-reading all of my letters and notes from the last mail run. I open one per day until they’re all open and then write one response per day til the next mail run. Talk about delayed gratification! It really prolongs the joy of mail. Tomorrow I get to start writing replies! Yahoo!

I really feel the need to share this observation. Donkeys look really funny when they get mad and do their heehawing. I laugh out loud every time I see it, but no one here seems to think it’s funny. Believe me, it’s funny.
