I received a returned piece of mail yesterday. It was a thank you note for a shower gift I received for Ethan. It was postmarked November 4, 2004. I can’t even imagine where that note has been and how it ever made it from that place back to me, two years later. And now that I have it back, what am I supposed to do with it? The person thinks I never thanked them, but I am not going to send it now. What if it had had money in it? I think I wrote the wrong address. I think I actually wrote someone else’s address that I know on it but with a different city, so the place probably didn’t exist. The postman was puzzled and into the pile it went. Then, two years later, someone was finally dealing with the pile and it made it’s way back to me. And went into the trash.
