10. January, 2006 - sunshiney line at the post office

Says here 2¢ stamps hard to come buy yesterday. They were around here, too. I stopped off yesterday morning on the way to work to mail some bills. They’re ones that should have gone out last week sometime, but I didn’t get to it then, so this morning I figured I’d stop and pay the two cent per letter penalty for having slacked off. But no, the machines at the post office nearest me don’t sell two cent stamps. Grr. The next one on the way to work was already sold out. When I went back at lunchtime, the line stretched out the door and it took me almost a half-hour to get my sixteen cents worth of stamps. Ugh.
But the day was sunshiney and beautiful out, and would have been perfect if I hadn’t had to work. As it was, I got out to enjoy the sunshine as much as possible before the sun gets hidden behind a wet gray blanket again. Took off early from work, too. It’s a pretty decent day when the biggest headache is having to stand in line at the post office. [fark!]
