I'm pretty sure our mailman hates us.
We NEVER check our mail more then once or if we are lucky twice a week. And when we do get out mail it's jammed pack to the top with all the advertisements, flyers and junk mail that I would rather avoid.
It gets so long between mailruns that it gets to the point I'm afraid to get our mail. What if there is a nasty letter from our mailman telling us that he is holding our mail hostage until we clean the box. So I put off another day of getting the mail in fear of nasty letters.
Plus the box is SO.FAR.AWAY. Why do we have to have out mail 1/2 way down the block when everyone else just has to walk a house or two to get theirs. Oh yeah we live on the corner next to the park. We are damned that way. And I could just stop by the box on my way home but it's on the wrong side of the street. And since my street is the Expressway of our neighborhood going against traffic is like taking your life in your own hands. That and the previously mentioned packed box makes me even less interested in getting the mail. I get all of our bills online so I pretty much know anything in the box is just junk mail. So why even bother. Okay just out of curiosity I may get my mail tonight, it's been a good week since we've picked up the mail (maybe longer), so tune back in and I'll have pictures to prove the madness.

I did the very same thing when I had a box. It was SO far away and I had a tiny newborn that I didn't feel good about taking (Winter) and didn't feel good about leaving (What if something happened?!). My husband always forgot to pick it up on the way in.UG.
I am ashamed to admit that there were times when they actually removed our mail and took it back to the post office.
LOL! Do you ever go out to get the mail, and then put it all back in the box when you realize it's nothing but junk?!!
happens ALL the time...
Oh my Gosh! I mean, GEEPERS! (that's my mom's new "swear word" ever since she got her mission call)
why would you ever walk down the street to get your stinkin' junkmail? If it's important enough, the mailman will start bringing it to your door. And hey, whatever happened to mail slots in the doors? We need to reinstate that whole system!
down with the boxes!
Mail used to be fun. I almost want to boycott my mailbox on Tuesdays. (the official junkmail day)
Why the heck is your mailbox in BFE?!
