oh, no, mara. while 20 miles to the east of me there is no home mail delivery, the mail carrier comes to my box daily. i would like the piece to have special handling though, and for that, it needs to be carried to the post office in person. small town post office, they LIKE it when i show up with mail art. makes their day, in fact.

thanks for looking for it mara. i have been too sick to get out to the post office and mail it off. i'm feeling much better today, however, and should be able to go out either tomorrow or friday. will give a holler when i can get it mailed. it should only take a day or two to arrive from northern arizona. being sick sucks...

Hey! I'm really glad you liked my postcard. I have to say that I do not have a phobia of dentists, although my teeth are really bad for a 23 year old!

I use http://www.vistaprint.com, they're fairly inexpensive and the custom upload interface is simple. They also run a lot of deals and freebies (like rubber stamps)! I go between sending reproductions, adding to the reproduced art and send a few originals from time to time. It's all good! Happy New Year!
Best, MT
