How good is unexpected mail? Don't get me wrong, an "out of the blue" email is nice or a random Facebook message is also pretty sweet, but wow, there's just something about unexpected snail mail that makes me happy. I'm not talking junk mail or a bill or that coupon packet one gets a few times a year (although it can be pretty damn sweet too); nah, I'm talking correspondence.
Today I got snail mail from my friend and her husband from Australia. It was a holiday card which was a few weeks late... but that's almost better. There's the pre-Xmas correspondence expectation phase. One my friends always mails her cards out December 1st... and the season begins as cards trickle in until Christmas day. Receiving a personalized card and message in mid January is totally unexpected.
It's pretty nice to know that somewhere on the other side of our world, someone's thinking about me every now and again and has taken the time to actually write to say hi :)
Made my day!
