In my typical procrastinating style, I found myself headed to the post office today to post my Christmas cards. Although I am thankful that they increase the hours for the holiday season, it sure would help if they also had people to work those hours. There were almost a dozen people in line and one poor soul holding down the fort. But I digress… I wasn’t actually posting to gripe!

While I was waiting, I noticed there was a mail box in the lobby, wrapped in wrapping paper, with a sign that said, “Santa Claus Mail Only”. Is this something the post office always does? Am I just that oblivious? I know they must get a ton of letters to Santa, is this a way of short-cutting the sorting? I’ve just never seen it before…
