I just went to Target on my lunch break (I know, BIG suprise) to get a card for a friend of mine. I was in the stationary department and I noticed they have a new line of stationary called “Hot Hues!” It’s everything from Thank-You cards to notepads. They even have package labels and card ornaments! It’s the coolest stuff ever in tons of color and patterns.
Only one problem.
Who the hell would I write to? I mean - would you even know what to do if I sent you an actual LETTER with actual HANDWRITING and a STAMP? Would you just stare at it and wonder what you should click to see what was inside? Would you wonder where the “reply” and “forward” buttons were? Would you worry something had happened to me if I was actually communicating via paper and ink instead of email? Would you fear it was a Ransom Letter since only kidnappers would mail a letter? Or do kidnappers use email now too? Do you still have one of those letter-openers that used to be all the rage? If you had to open the letter with your fingers, would you get a paper-cut and freak out?
My point? I may be writing a few random letters this week on the most adorable neon stationary known to man. If you see one in your mailbox (Your mailbox is that thing at the end of your sidewalk with the flag on it. It used to bring your bills before you went paperless on all of your accounts) don’t panic. I’m not being abducted and held for millions hundreds of dollars. You can open the envelope and not expect a ransom note cut out of magazine letters. And please don’t worry if my handwriting and spelling are a bit atrocious - - I predict that life without the backspace key and spell check will be hard to adjust to.
Wait. Am I right or left-handed?
