short and sweet ....

i feel a tad like a machine ....

i'm in charge of a 7,000 letter annual campaign at work and after a few delays, it's finally time for stuffing. we received all these letters at the office yesterday around 1:45pm and i dropped 2,271 (yes, i counted them -- because i had to) at the bulk mail post office at noon today. five of us stuffed up a storm yesterday afternoon and i managed to get about 400 done myself last night while i anxiously prayed for the ravens to beat the patriots (alas, no luck there). i will be able to drop another 2,000+ tomorrow morning. tonight, in less than four hours, i stuffed 729 envelopes with letters, inserts and wallet flap envelopes. two things i know for sure ---- i need a massage after this like the tin man needs oil (or a heart?) .... and i haven't missed that darned computer monitor of mine at all.

remind me though, why did i get that degree again? i will be happy to get away from mind-numbing tasks and back to something that requires some thought. at any rate, only 2,500 letters to go and i think that might get done tomorrow!!! thursday cannot get here soon enough!!!

more updates on how we're doing soon.
