Kids, huh?


My daughter asked me how to address an envelope today. Where does the address go, she wanted to know? Where does the stamp go? Where does that little blue airmail sticker go? Do I have to put my address on the front or the back? It costs how much?

She’s twenty-five years old! Twenty-five years of living on this planet in the 21st century and she doesn’t know how to address an envelope. I blame the parents!

After not so patiently telling her, she still managed to put the airmail sticker on the wrong corner of the envelope. I should have told her to go on YouTube as there are millions of views of videos demonstrating the strange and difficult science of how to address an envelope! When did life get so complicated?
