I've been back within touch of the internet since Monday (after a weekend spent carting out family appliances and heirlooms [including a set of plywood and cinderblock shelves that I am told have been in our family longer than I have]), but I've been working on other things.
My application to the University of Missouri School of Journalism Graduate Program (boy, there's an awful lot of capitalized proper nouns in that title) is due by September 1. I aim to drive up to Columbia Tuesday to drop off the necessary paperwork in person (as well as collect letters of recommendation).
Also of note, today I was able to drop some postcards into what I believe was an official U.S. postage collection box. I aim to send some more shortly. This is all to say, it's still not too late to share your address and get personal, physical postage. After all, a full mailbox if more sastifying than a couple extra missives in your cyberspace inbox - at least in my opinion.
Email or copy your address into the comments box, and I'll start working on a personalized letter you can treasure for years, potentially worth something if I become famous (or if it happens to be mailed with what proves to be a rare stamp). You wouldn't only be keeping in touch with a friend and giving him proper distraction from TV soap operas, but could be investing in your financial future (or mine as well, if you respond with a letter and you become famous some da [or you post your response with what proves to be a rare stamp]).
Either way, thanks.
I need to go back to my essays.
