People send me stuff. Most of the time it is simply tips for
blog posts but every once awhile they send me actual stuff. Today I received
three reusable shopping bags.
Last Sunday in this post, I made a light hearted jab at Joan Lancos for disqualifying me from receiving a yellow Columbia Villages bag
because I wasn't a resident of Columbia .
Today she sent me two along with a note apologizing for the slight and hoping
that “this incident won’t prevent you from saying nice things about us in the
future.”
I should note here that Joan and I both share a fond
appreciation for sarcasm.
I also got a Baggu from Mickey Gomez, the Executive Director
of the Volunteer Center of Howard County. I suppose Mickey read about the
yellow bag incident and decided to send me one of her bags, a nice little fold
up number.
Thank you, Mickey and Joan. You both get a wag of the Wordbones tail for the smiles I got when I opened my mail today.
