So I've been really into pen pals for the past month or so. I've been using a website called penpalsnow.com to find people to write to and, as of today, I've accumulated about 17 or 18 potential postal friends. Which seems like a whole heck of a lot of people to write to.
Yesterday I sent out about 15 letters to people whose addresses I already had and it turned out to be kind of a big hassle and a big expense (since my printer was out of ink and I'm broke). I'm really, really, incredibly excited, though, to get some responses in my mailbox.
I've already gotten one package from a wonderful young man in Northern Ireland. It contained, in addition to 6-page letter, an assortment of Cadbury candy bars which can only be found in the UK. And if you've never had Cadbury chocolate from the UK, you are missing out, my friend.
As with pretty much everything new I do, I am getting pretty obsessed with it and probably going overboard. I'm just really hoping that I don't get burnt out on it like I do so many other things.
