When a letter arrives?
When you least expect it, that's true in the case that you had in the previous post.
The last time I sent a bunch of Christmas cards was a couple of years, did not want to lose the habit, but really, when you've ordered a dozen and only get two or three, you are taking away the win.
So this year slashed the list, only one person would be lucky.
I bought the postcard in a position of Architects Without Borders in my school, the seal on the tight in front of my house and I wrote. It took me a while to decide what to put, because she would only send one, wanted it to be as personal as possible.
I sent on 23 December morning. Almost always led to the post and if not I will send certified, I put the mouth of one of the bronze lion heads that are on the outside (I love doing it since childhood, jejejje), but this time I decided to throw in one of those big yellow boxes (in bold plan).
knew would not come for Christmas, but I do not care, my order was over New Year wishes. I figured that despite the holidays and through the weekend, the card would travel the 1000 km separating the street mailbox Pontevedra recipient's mailbox in time to surprise before the bell.
I figured wrong, fatal, even badly.
New Year came and there was no news, and Reyes went even they could not do anything.
the end, it spoiled the surprise by asking the recipient if he had not received anything interesting from the correspondence, it seems not a question that can brew without raising suspicions at a normal conversation, so I got caught.
situation pisses me off so much that even sent a complaint to the post, though furious diplomatic, they answered me still more diplomatically, "normal incidence which sometimes occurs," they called it.
came
February, but not my letter, and in March I began to forget the matter.
Until finally, on March 28, a manuscript was opened about 1000 km.
Three months and one week.
To be honest, about half of those 95 days are not borne by the post office, because when you decide to send a letter by mail, you must not only take into account the effectiveness of the postal service, but you also have to have the recipient's level of forgetfulness ... or its potential housemates ...
Finally, I got "almost" what I wanted, surprise someone with an unexpected detail, but believe me, next time, not only do not I will choose a white envelope for shipping, but if there is light and acoustic signals, that will be the one to buy ...
