THANK U LXY

yay!!

some day i will manage to mail the postcards from the actual place.

I would die of shame if you ever became that efficient.

lol<3

thanking u <3

my fridge is now 2/3 covered in postcards

yay ruby!

tampa, btw! thx tehrez!!!!!<3

Lol!

Fun fact: my flight was delayed, which gave me time to buy your post card and have a glass of wine while i wrote it (it was a long day). I thought i did a pretty good job watching the clock but as i was making my way to the gate, i got the page of shame: called out by name on the pa! this is actually not the first time i was the last one on, as they were about to close the gate!

i missed my flight last time i visited lxy. i still can’t believe i did that. i just totally messed up the estimated light rail travel time.

My sister once transposed the time of her flight. It was at like 11:30 and she thought it was 3:11 or something like that (lol 311). Another time she went to the wrong airport.

when we were in the airport the other day there was a flight waiting for one person and they just kept announcing and announcing, adding more languages all the time.

another time they called the guy over and over, and when he finally sprinted to his gate, everyone at my gate cheered and called at him by name.

a different time both jergïns and i fell asleep in the waiting area and didn’t wake up till final boarding call. they didn’t use our names though.

i have no more stories of this nature.

finally checked my mail; best postcard ever!

it’s kind of the postcard version of pieces of flair. i love it.

oh haha that’s a good compliment! what was on it, i wish i could remember who got what)?

i got

EXCELSIOR CAFFÉ ¥360

PLEASE OPEN THE DOOR

and

Dearest [me and lyle]

which was p. great; i’m not sure i’ve ever been half a dearest before

:-) <3 (-:

those are very great pictures.

super great :)

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Two weeks pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

LA! Who’s in?

Me, please! I should have sent some from IND! I think my next trip will be San Antonio in January—postcards of the Alamo :-)

welcome, tza

send addresses, plz!

ty, ts!

yes please. you have my address still?

Yes i think so!

Space shuttle landed on my fridge today :-)

I’m glad it was a successful endeavor!

(all post cards were purchased, written, and stamped in LA but may have traveled to VA before being rerouted to their final destinations)

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Almost two months pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

San Antonio next week! Send me your addresses for postcards from the Alamo’s basement!

yay!

So jealous of your ability to stroll the riverwalk while it’s 13° here!!

It’s way too cold here for anything but outdoor dashing to the next warm space! Hopefully will warm up and stop raining before I leave on Thursday, I want to see the Alamo.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Three weeks pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Sunshiny postcards from Miami anyone?

Plz!

where are you going? i am overdue for a miami trip!

Working just south of the Miami airport all next week, but flying into Ft. Lauderdale on Friday so I can spend the weekend with my kids :-) I am ready to eat all the Cuban food possible

even though i didn’t thank you for the postcard from san antonio, would you consider giving me another chance by sending one from miami?

absolutely :)

i think i’d like one. i’ll email you my new address.

I don’t know if webmail still works for this account. Jaq.myers gmail

and i forgot to send it

now i did!

my postcard zone is filling up!

unintentional but perhaps them being by the thermostat is fitting since they represent so many climates.

haha i got a starbucks receipt on lxy’s japan one too!

i can offer post cards from south carolina this weekend. Not nearly as cool as miami but shout if you want one!

please yes to all of the postcards all of the time!

xxp haha yes, we drank a lot of coffee in tokyo.

Yes please also for me all postcards from everywhere are welcome!

I am still so bummed that our singing postman maybe kept my postcard from Japan, but so cool to see tza’s!

tza i’ll send you my address if you’re still there. in a minute. i might be going to macon, ga this summer if i get into this program for lawyers.

I am still here! Send to my regular gmail not the email on this ilx acct, thanks!!

oh jaq, i had no idea! i have more so i’ll send another one. or perhaps hand-deliver it in case your postman has intentions to amass a collection.

I am a postcard failure :( never made it to a shop to get them. Next time...

ha i *started* to email you and didn’t send so....

i can’t follow through on the simplest tasks anymore

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Two weeks pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

I lovvvve my postcard, thank you jaq!!

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Two months pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

thanks for the postcard jaq!

ps jaq thanks for the postcard from steamy south florida<3

harby i sent you my address

Me please jaw (if not too late!)

JAW

Lol swypo

Ha! Tza, I sent you one from the crazy Coral Castle too. It probably got to your mailbox right after you left for the Keys!

Well the postcards are from key west but the postmarked are not :(

I’m going to Darwin Aus in August! Who wants postcards? Also lxy I need a MFED to take along

Moi!

yay hurray okay!!!

oh man i totes forgot to do the postcard thing—we just got back from europe (paris, zurich, norway, with a surprise trip to italy from my BF). but i’ll be in NZ in a month if anyone wants postcards from there?

yes please

Please and thank you!

Yes please!

email yr addresses—[myfirstname] at chancepress dot com

Thanks, jaq! My postman is a jerk :(

I totally drove right by the coral castle last week and didn’t even realize it!

Aww! Postman should be more chill with the cards. I wondered if you drove down to the Keys or flew. The Coral Castle is easy to miss—kind of a non-descript intersection. Tbh, you didn’t miss much :-)

Key West postcard added to the fridge front—thank you tza!

<3

thank you for the postcards, jaq and tza <3

thank u jaq and tza. it was nice to come home to those.

but i didn’t get any postcards in macon. i couldn’t find anywhere to get them. macon was horrible. i’ll have to send some from good old baltimore.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Three weeks pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Chicago?

oh fun yes!

I failed. :(

oh, i failed at mine too. let’s just resolve to send some postcards from wherever we are within the next 30 days.

I failed to mail from Darwin :-( the idea of foreign post offices, like foreign pay phones, overwhelmed me.

i also failed :( sorry lxy <3

it gives me comfort to see other people having difficulty with mailing things. i love getting postcards but i feel so gloomy about my inevitable failure to send them that i am too resigned to offer and too ashamed to ever ask for one.

smoove, did you go to nz already? i was in wellington in july and was thinking about you.

yes! i just got back yesterday.

i’m feeling a bit sad actually—i went on my own, and got to spend the whole time in welly hanging out with all my favourite people and it was awesome. now i’m home, and i really did miss jordan, but a liiiiitle piece of me wishes we could move back there—something i haven’t felt in the 6 years since i left.

i just really really miss having close friends around, people i can really *talk* to.

Awww I know that feeling! But I’m glad you got to visit.

Lxy! Thank you for the ferry postcard!

:-)

<3 <3 <3

i want to thank lxy for her postcard

Awww, thank you lxy! Now I want to take a trip to the San Juans!!!

darlings

thank you lxy <3 <3 <3 <3

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯A month passes⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯A month passes⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

I love Pittsburgh.

Providence cards haven’t made it to the box yet 😳

mookie i webmailed you our address!

ps hi from reykjavik. actually, hi from keflavik, where we’re waiting for out hotel transport via the blue lagoon. it’s snowing.

hihi<3 i think you must be in paris now? i hope you are having a wonderful vacation.

yes! departing for bordeaux tomorrow. i love paris and am sorry to leave so soon. but i’m excited to go to some new places, and we’ll be back here again before long. never adieu, always à bientôt.

Bon voyage, petite lxy!

hi from barcelona. this place is a madhouse!<3

hi lxy!

we should all print that post out and magnet it to our fridges to relieve your postcard obligation burden (that is if you are even bearing one, you sound quite cheerful and unconcerned.)

some of our cities reward even longer than two days of a visit u philistine

?

yizzer flitting around the place like I dunno what.

no dublin tour I take it

everyone deserves to flit when the opportunity presents itself, don’t you think? but no, no flitting to dublin, i’m afraid. the last time our jergins was there he was attacked with a two by four, so he’s understandably not anxious to return. perhaps some time we’ll all be flitting in the same direction and cross paths.

I should flit more, really.

i almost bought stamps tonight

flitting with disaster

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Two weeks pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
