"Mail"
Almost 4.30am and I'm still awake.
Have started packing today, even though it's probably another three weeks or so before I have to move. The room looks as if a tornado hit it.
Trying to put together a box of stuff to mail to Andreas; his Absolut bottles have been languishing at the bottom of my closet for what seems like an eon. About time I kept my word *smacks own forehead*
Speaking of mail, I received the most amazing gift ever from Sharon and Elissa :) It arrived in a conspicuous-looking package that stuck out a mile in the mailbox, and was sealed so tightly I had to take a pair of scissors to cut it open. Inside, carefully wrapped in plastic and tissue paper, was an assortment of gifts and knick knacks that left me grinning from ear to ear. The biggest item was a tee shirt from cows.ca; it sported a parody of an Absolut ad in front, only it was called Absomoot instead, lol. There was also a gorgeous origami hanging ornament in the shape of cranes in pride colours that's hanging in front of my door as we speak, not to mention the beautifully hand-drawn card by Elissa depicting two snow-women and snowcats grinning at me ;D Oh, and who can forget that mysterious bottle wrapped in numerous layers, stuffed among the others? My first thought was, "there is no way these two crazies sent me booze via mail!". Actually, it was a miniature Anne of Green Gables maple syrup, lol.
So yes, thank you ladies, for such a wonderful surprise :)
...and now I shall get back to cleaning.
