So Cool

Every so often I realize how uncool I am.

Not that this really bothers me at all - but during some moments I think about this.

Tonight, while reading about my postcard stats in my postcard collection hobby I was thinking to myself - wow, so many from Finland. Everyone on people on Postcrossing often remark on how many cards are sent to and come from Finland.

I find this fascinating but when someone asks me at work tomorrow what I did tonight - I will not mention the postcards. At all.

Although I doubt they would know the answer, it would be nice if I worked with someone who thought around the same lines as me. Or had a similar interest.

The only people who have come to my house and seen my postcards look at me like I am crazy. I explain how I collect them and how it works, but I doubt anyone is listening.

Point is, I have no fun habits left. Can not even finish a beer myself without feeling sick. So I have my own fun things but I am not sure anyone can relate.

Maybe I am secretly super cool - or so great. But don't tell them about the postcards.

And if you got this far I should tell you that we are seriously trying for the third kid now and I think it might be going well...

  1. You're just a nerd. Keep at it, don't mind what others think and soon enough you'll find that you've become a trendsetter. :-)

    BTW, how did you create these statistics? Did you compile them yourself, or are they copied off the Postcrossing site?
