BYOT Bring your own tape

I woke up sore this morning. Crossfit workouts have that effect on me. I grabbed the computer and checked me email as I do most mornings and I found I sold a book on half.com. Marilyn had already left for work with the car, so I put Claire in the baby backpack and headed to the post office. I printed off the shipping label and figured I could do the rest at the post office.

It was a nice day and a nice walk. My sore muscles didn't like the movement so much, they just wanted to lay in bed all day, but I didn't let them. It was good to get out and stretch my legs. We passed a park on the way and Claire let me know she wanted to stop and go play by saying "down," several times. I told here we could stop on the way back and pressed onward. 

The line at the post office was a little long but I made some small talk with other folks waiting their turn. When I finally stepped up to the counter I was informed that the united states post office couldn't spare a few inches of tape to attach my shipping label to the envelope. I considered making a big stink about it but chose the high road and walked home to search for tape.

As I write about it I realize it wasn't a big deal, I just needed to vent. I don't have any pictures for this post which makes it a little boring. Instead I'll just link you to my youtube channel. youtube.com/zachattackduty After all, if a picture is worth a thousand words, at thirty frames per second, a two minute video is worth 3,600,000 words.
