V-V-Velociraptors!! A week in mail.

Hello people of the internet world! Every week I sit down to write my weekly mail post and think, "I don't really have anything to say today so maybe it'll be a short post with few words." I always underestimate the power of my verbal diarrhea because out spews words and words and you probably feel you need a nap by the time you reach the end. Let's see if I can do better this week.

I've decided that velociraptor is my new favourite word. How come we live in a world where there aren't more opportunities to use the word velociraptor in regular conversation? Basically I'm looking for any opportunity to declare that I'm feeling velociraptor-iffic. The natural solution would be to start hanging out with dinosaur people. Did you know that Brontosauruses aren't real dinosaurs? The Brontosaurus is actually an apatosaurus with the head of a camarasaurus—HA! Take that dinosaur people! Put that in your pipe and smoke it! Ahem. However, I suspect dinosaur people are all about T-Rexes and man, don't they know that T-Rexes are so commercial? What-ever.

Incoming:


Just a handful of incoming to report about this week. WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?!!! But alas, I'll survive because what I did recieve is awesome as usual, and Lady Laura doesn't need much to make her happy.

A great letter from Felicia at Light & Shadow on the best stationery ever.  I love the I Heart Guts stationery set.




Some wonderful mail art from Annie at Wanders of Snail Mail. Isn't it beautiful?

A completely unexpected envelope full of birthday surprises from Jessica at Splendour in the Grass! Thanks Jessica! So sweet.

Outgoing:


I was a mail magician this week and as a result, I have velociraptor-iffic outgoing to show for it! I rewarded myself by buying *cough*25*cough* books on amazon today. When my place goes into foreclosure and we have to live out of that amazon box, I'll just tell my husband that we're building a fort. It'll be fine. But shhhhh! Don't tell him! I don't need you blowing the SURPRISE!!! 






I love this postcard. Just what exactly are these men talking about?





And that's it! I'm out. Watch out for velociraptors. Especially in the grocery store.

    1. Well, I'll let you in on a little secret... your envelope was Stegosaurus-tastic (but only yours because it was that special! Everything else was all velociraptor!)

      Oh Stegosauruses. The turtles of the dinosaur age, aren't they?

    1. Thank you lovely lady! It was back in May. I've made up my mind that it's the last birthday where I get older. I'm only getting younger from here on out. Age and time, I'll conquer you yet.
