So my blog database (read: Brain) has been overloaded with things to write about to the extent that I just haven't written any of it. But here's a quick one: mystery gift appears in mail. An all-too precious yet bad-ass Johnny Cash pin, (which, if I hadn't lost it some years ago, would look great with my original, vintage Shirley Temple Fan Club pin), showed up in my pile of mail today.
But though it appeared enveloped and stamped- there is no postage meter marking or return address. Was this a drive-by gifting? And if so, was it a late B-day or quite early Christmas present?
Either way, I'm delighted, mildly disturbed and found this occurrence entirely blog-worthy.
I welcome any theories. The handwriting looks familiar, but not sure what to make of the missing postage info. Hmm...

The lack of post mark is quite odd since it does have current stamps. Does it look like it's been through the mail? Is the pin bent? How does the envelope look?
It seems like you might have to have all your friends do a writing sample. Or at least those who know how much you love the Cash!
I think it was the albino clown with the red lips. He's been looking suspicious lately.
Kimmy- I'd say the handwriting most resembles yours- and does the postage stamp choice- but unless you've secured accomplices on the west coast- there's no way the envelope has been through the mail- no travel marks of any kind.
hmm- and Ken- I hope there were no clowns involved!!!
If it came all the way from NY it would surely have a bump, bang or wrinkle!
