Bad son

June 19th, 2009 No comments

So I woke up this morning and a  thought popped in my head, “I don’t remember sending my Father’s day card”.  Another thought popped in my head, “Wait today is Friday, it’s too late”. Now I had to decide do I hand deliver is or send it late. A hand delivered card is never as good as opening your mail and seeing a card for you. Sending it late would just seem wrong. So I did what any good son would do (really a good son would have had this thought 3 days earlier) and decided to send the card overnight. I check first the rates on the computer. FexEx ~$38, USPS ~$17. USPS it is. I go to the post office and print out the shipping sticker and see that the price is posted on the label. Now my Dad knows how much I spent and will remind me of this. What really upsets me is I bought the card over 3 weeks ago thinking I would be smart and beat the rush. I am just happy knowing no matter what my Dad will have a card to open before Father’s day.
