Penpals
After Mom left for work about a half hour ago, I located an unread copy of Lettermag, with the plastic wrapping still intact, in her room.
I'm rather glad I found it, because I could really use a new penpal. I have had penpals before in the past, but we have gone our separate ways.
I'm still looking, though, and plan to start writing introduction letters to those people I checked off on the Notice Board.While looking at the Notice Board I saw this new disclaimer at the bottom of the notices:
"Don't be too disappointed if you end up waiting a while for an answer to a letter. The people who post messages on the Notice Board often receive so much mail that it might take some time for them to answer all the letters."
So THAT explains why I haven't received any replies from the two letters of introduction I sent LAST YEAR. Ahahahahaha...now I feel stupid.
Well...that hasn't deterred me yet. I'll still send letters to those who actually want penpals, and maybe I'll even post my own notice on the Notice Board...if that is possible, of course.
Speaking of, I just noticed something...why do I always misspell the word "received"???
LOL. I have to stop doing that.

the problem with penpals is i always lose the address lol
Internet abolished penpals.
Unless you find two people equally willing to give up time, money and resources to write to each other, I'd bet they exchange MSN addresses within the month, and save on it all. 
I think most of my internet contacts would pretty much fall into the Pen Pals category of relationships, just that it happened to be conducted over MSN and forums instead of paper. So there you go...

Haha. I always had one penpal after another, so that was never a problem with me.

I would have to disagree...while the Internet has abolished most of it, it is still there. It's just not as popular nowadays as it was years or generations ago.
