Remember, I AM one, behave. Or as people I love have told me, when in a potentially uncomfortable conversational situation, wear your headphones!ebs handlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08103970368965593409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857681935979077897.post-71321876059523799842008-12-10T23:14:00.000-08:002008-12-10T23:14:00.000-08:00I wholeheartedly co-sign on #5.Having that distanc...I wholeheartedly co-sign on #5.<BR/><BR/>Having that distance is really key, because if you're directly behind him/her, knowing that s/he is the ONLY thing standing between you and the exit to that post office is excruciatingly painful.<BR/><BR/>So just to be clear, are you SURE you wouldn't want Lucy to wait in the line at the post office?!

And if so, does EVERYONE stop to read them and then discuss them with everyone in line?: "I can't believe John Smith died. He caught a huge fish last week." If you don't have that entertainment in your post office, you should come down to the one in Oak Harbor :-). People here seem to enjoy standing in line forever because it gives them a chance to catch up on who caught the biggest fish, who's knee is doing better after surgery, who should be going into labor any second, etc. That happens to be a part of small town life that drives me crazy.Brooklethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13577735671605145785noreply@blogger.com
