Welcome, Welcome, One and All.

Hello.  Hola. Hallo. Salam. Hej. Salut. Aloha. Sveiki. 


Howzit going, people of the world?  Welcome to my new blog.  It's starting out as a little experiment for moi. Honestly, I have no idea how it's going to work out.  But they always say, 'you never know until you try!'.  So I hope you can join me on this little misadventure, it shall be grand!


I am a HUGE, GINORMOUS, GARGANTUAN fan of old school, snail mail pen palling.  Is that a word?  Palling.  I'm not sure.  But I'm going to use it anyway, so don't even try to think about stopping me.  I'm..... UNSTOPPABLE!   Or so I like to think. :)


So, back to the topic of my obsession with snail mail penpals.  I love to write letters on cute stationary , use awesome, kick butt stamps, and go to the mail box and open it, only to find letters for yours truly.  Yeah, that's right.  It's a legal high for me!  I mean, think about it.  That letter or postcard has traveled miles upon miles just to get to you.  It's sole purpose in life?  To get to your mailbox.  Just stop whatever you are doing and ponder.  ......  Ok. Enough pondering.  With this obsession, comes several roadblocks.  Such as: Who's going to send me mail?  Where will I get stationary?  Who am I going to send mail back too?


NEVER FEAR!! I AM HERE!!! to help.  Since I had those problems, I decided to do a little bit of recon.  I researched places to buy postcards, websites to get penpals, and the best way to go about being an all around BAMF when it comes to penpaling.  (<--- I'm still not sure that's even the way to go.  Such an awkward word to spell.)


I'll be sure to fill you in as I go, but only a couple of things at a time! :)  First on my agenda?  To get everyone caught up on the postcards I have received from being a part of the lovely Postcrossing Project .  This little project has been the life force of my recent re-entry into the world of penpals.  Having the opportunity to both send and recieve postcards, post, and letters from all over the world!  I can't wait to share some of the cards!  They are absolutely beautiful! :)


Until next time, Ciao!
