One of these days my mailman will show up wearing hockey goalie equipment from me sneak attacking him for my mailOriginally Posted by zadidoll /img/forum/go_quote.gif
So I stalked my mail man and no boxes (waiting for Julep as well). /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
Oh my gosh Zadi, I genuinely LOL'd at that one because it rang so darn true.Originally Posted by zadidoll /img/forum/go_quote.gif
I hate Sundays... no mail. LOL The subscription addict in me is twitching for a package! LOL
Oh I know. I live out in the country, where you get to know your postal carrier really well, and I swear I get a little sheepish when she comes to my door with my packages. And my FedEx delivery person brings my dogs' treats (I have four) and if I am not there, she leaves their cookies on top of my package. My dogs alllll know the UPS man's truck is coming when it is still well up the road and alert me because he stops at my place so often. It is really kind of embarrassing. I think I feel that way because it feels more than a little self-indulgent that those packages are treats that are clearly just for me. I still want them of course, and I think they are great for me all the way around, and force me to take breaks and do nice, de-stressing things for myself that I definitely would not do otherwise. But still.Originally Posted by zadidoll /img/forum/go_quote.gif
LOL I thought my fellow addicts would get a kick out of that. I hear my neighbor's truck and it sounds like the FedEx/UPS truck and I look out the window and think, "package?" LOL

Don't feel guilty, it's their paid job. Also, I leave mine homemade cookies and stuff from time to time to show my appreciation for when they go out of their way for me. I figure it makes me happy to get my stuff and it makes their job a little less miserable.Originally Posted by kitnmitns /img/forum/go_quote.gif
