I'm gotta cheat and do two:

I felt happy when I finally read your postcard, but also sad that I didn't get your other one. :(

My friend got me a copy of Fantasy Life and I was elated to find out that I could make a Black character.

A Black character! In a Japanese game. SO HAPPY.

I guess I better stop sending bar coasters as postcards...although maybe it will still come...in 20 years.

Yesterday I took a pseudo-postcard bar coaster from the stack at the bar, wrote in a little letter, and put it back for the next patron to find.

For those curious, the man writing the letter was named James. He was trapped in the snow in a mountain pass and writing his mother. He hoped she would send supplies soon. His best dog had just died, and he feared that, for their survival, he and the rest of his team would have to do - the unnamed worst.

Just kidding, I found it! It has found a nice, comfy home in my wallet. :D

Too bulky for your wallet. Just use it as a bar coaster! I have one more month in the US and 10 more stamps so there's more to come.
