Well here’s what I think…

Um, hold on a sec, I just got a notification on my phone…

Yeah, turned out to be nothing but a pushed out add.

Anyway as I was saying…

oops, incoming handset message, hold on a sec, be right back… ... ... ...

< attention: this response entry has been inactive for 2 minutes, are you still there? >

//( the above A.I. initiated action feedback message is a new Medium feature to keep content moving and collect more data about our readers, writers, and also those pesky hackers crashing the response message sections)

Sorry about that, had to respond to the message by setting tomorrows alarm for and appointment thereby avoiding the boss ripping me a new one.

So about the post office, yeah it’s crazy alright…

Huh, WTF was that?! I just heard the mail box out front close and it’s hours after dark, be right back gotta look see, I hope it’s not the neighbor kids again! …

You are not going to believe this but sometimes the mail is delivered way after dark nowadays, something about having to use a new contractor every week to home deliver mail and being new they are almost useless in so many ways! Especially when we get ad flyers that used to be inserted in something known as a paper newspaper with some coupons (or lies. Like buy 5 and get 1 free at the new higher price) and other lies. They are addressed to current resident or occupant @ our street address. Ever try to do a return to sender on that shit? Pro Tip: Round file. Wait, I mean the blue paper recycling bucket that goes to the landfill since most of Asia no longer takes our paper waste.

As I was saying…

Hey I’m cutting you a break, since I just got an email that I recognize I was going to unsubscribe to, but just for you, I’ll check that out later…:-)

That’s right, the question is, do we really need the post office? 🤔🤔🤔 <— this is the world thinking… 🌎~ …

Ahh, I know the answer, once the P.O. is gone meditate and ponder what that means. 💌 📫 📭
