I'm not broke right now, but I'm busy, and trying to figure out how to live on less so that maybe some day we can have kids. Could you afford to have a dinner and board game night, or get your friend's daughter to give you a Sharpie tattoo? Is there anything I could send to make things more fun? I really need to start putting together random packages again.
We're all actually doing okay right now and it's things like game night and on-the-fly ski outings that are helping. What depressed the hell out of me the other night is currently making me a bit proud of my friends. We are all doing the best we can with what we have and really, life is pretty good.
It doesn't hurt that the only reason I won't get to play ski instructor tomorrow night is overly cold weather. :)
Tell me more about random packages? I've wanted to write letters for some time now but putting together a box of goofy little things could be great fun.
Every once in awhile I'll send my mother an envelope with candy, some cosmetic, a little book, or a bra I got really cheap (and that's its own story) or a few of those things. She sends me British magazines, and recipes, and creepy looking spider traps. My grandmother used to send things too. I once sent my father a big box containing a Pet Sounds CD and a lot of candied ginger.
If you got something, what would you want? Would you like something to read, or eat, or to feel pretty with? Do you want a ring or earrings, or a little necklace when my bead order comes in? I'll make a post about this in my own journal sometime, I think, so any info we put up is friends-only.
