it worked just like the commercial

So last night I printed off postage and label from the US Postal Service website and also requested a package pickup.  I requested that they pick up the package from the front door of my unit (rather than the package bin down in the garage where they usually leave stuff).  It was late when I made the request and figured that Fallback Plan #1 was to hand it to Lee, my mail carrier, when he shows up - probably about 2 ish.  Fallback #2 was to walk the thing to the PO myself. 

Turns out I didn't need either one.  Guy came right to the door and I handed him the box and he saw the Netflix return and asked if he could take that, too...  Nice.  Really nice.  I want to call that plastic reindeer in the TV ad and tell him how cool it was.  Maybe I'll have the Geiko Gecko call him.  (I saw the gecko on TV last night for the first time in a long time.  I have missed him.)

Work has been busy busy today but mostly with the kind of stuff I like to do so nice.  It really is kind of like getting paid to do what you would be doing if you weren't working anyway.  Somedays it is, anyway. 

I have a conf call at 2. 

The end.  For now.

i love printing postage at home ... i have a supply of priority boxes on hand, and since i'm not home during the day, i just get it ready and then drop it off at the corner mailbox on the way to work in the morning. LOVE IT!

I love the one price for everything you can stuff in the box no matter how heavy... It's just a wonderful thing.

The football playoffs are bringing a lot of ad characters out of hiding. I just yesterday saw the one with the referee who isn't a jackass, he's a zebra for the first time since last year's playoffs. And I'd been watching out for it, because jwg hadn't seen it, and I knew it would amuse him. (It did.)
