In honor of the new rate changes (and the fact that my “fat letter” now costs more than your skinny one, even if they weigh the same amount):
Puffy marshmallow
Do not send it through the mail!
Cost you arm and leg!
These are calipers
We use them to measure mail
Oh no! This one fat!
If you’re going to send out the mail
And you don’t want your postage to fail,
You must measure the weight
and the width calculate
To be sure the thing fits on the snail.

*heh* A limerick that actually scans rhythmically. How very unusual nowadays…

Having to send out grad announcements for Bubba brought home to me once again how much I have come to dislike snail mail. When my mom was here this weekend, I made sure to remind her to have my dad check their email for her Mothers Day card… *heh*
Guess I need to call today to make sure she saw it.
Reminds me: I need to send my older sister her birthday anniversary eCard. And then call her tomorrow to remind her to check her email. *LOL*

We use snail mail as little as possible. I’ve moved to eCards myself, primarily because I forget to mail the “real” ones. Well, first I forget to buy them on time. Then I forget to mail them.
