Grump, grump, grump

Barely do we finish unloading a ream or ten of political kipple straight from the post box into the recycle bin, than we start getting fifty megatons of holiday gift catalogues, full of "value" prices that only a Rockefeller can afford. Bang. Straight into the recycle bin.

Does anyone receive any actual mail anymore? (I don't count bills.) I sure

My dead mother-in-law gets more mail than I do. It's mostly ads and requests for money, so I don't mind.

[sartorias]

At least that stuff is easy to sort and toss.

[queenoftheskies]

Um...no?

Lots of catalogs and ads, though.

[sartorias]

Argh. I sure hope that stuff actually gets recycled, because we throw away tons of it.

Magazines. Actual paper magazines.

[sartorias]

Oh yes, we do get a few of those. But none recently.

Magazines, birthday and Christmas cards, that's about it.

Birthday and Christmas cards from a few people, beyond the bills and various junk mail. I actually really like sending and receiving cards, though. (So many of my friends connect through text or messenger systems though, that many of them I don't even have a physical address for, and I find it a little awkward to ask for some reason.)

[sartorias]

Yeah, physical addresses are kind of like landlines: not exchanged anymore.
