christy 3/60


that c is not spectacular. but, i do like the decorations on the letters inspired by the design on the stamp. happy colors. not really compulsive about translating the pattern in the dome onto the stamp. it would be hard to define exactly when to be compulsive and when to relax a bit. it is zen-like, i think. i remember the person who tried to teach me how to hold a ping pong paddle. he said, don't hold it too tight, but don't hold it too loose. then i think he mentioned the three musketeers and holding your sword not too tight and not too loose. same with holding a live bird. not too tight, not too loose. ok. listing all those comparisons will not really teach you what you need to know about the fine art of putting little dots on envelopes. i'll just have to book a zen retreat in santa fe and we'll all go practice our dots and achieve blissful states. until we go to the p.o. jumpin'jiminy. it used to be about $2 to send a letter priority. it is now $5. and priority does not really mean that it will get there any faster. but, i digress.
