If challenges turn you guys off my request doesn't stand a chance, but what the heck! I'm giving it a try anyway, in the hopes of earning that care box for the worldwalker in my life. Do I really need to say ours is a very long-distance far-from-perfect relationship? Then again, I can't really think of anyone else who deserves, and will appreciate, that box the most. (my parents still get my phone calls) But this person is one day
sleeping on his tent in a small town and the next hiking a mountain, and because he refuses to become a slave of cellphones we don't really talk a lot.
-bare with me, I'm almost done-
Once in a blue moon he comes to his parents' home in Miami, that will happen in May, so he will get the box if you mail it there, after that who knows where he'll go.
If neither the entricacies nor the romantic tone of our love convinces you
perhaps the fact that it was He -whose name I do not speak of- who introduced me to your magazine will.
If that's the case say "macaroni" just kidding, here's my list
-1 small and light pen (for he's always writing postcards and letters)
-stamps (for the see-above reasons)
-red shoelaces (for he had recently decided to introduce color to his 'shoedrove' when he found himself going through a pond of mud and the red shoelaces he had bought came out, well...far from red...they never recovered the color)
-you know that postcard of a naked John Lennon and Yoko embracing, her hair all spread on the floor? He loves it...I do too, so why dont you please two readers instead of one? It's a offer you can't refuse!
-1 chocolate chip cookie (he's diabetic so he only gets one you hear me?! One!)
-dry nuts
-a Fandango gift card (sometimes between buses, hotels and flights he catches a movie)
-one pearl earring (without the girl)
-if there's any item/accessory (such as a tie, socks, handkerchief, hat) you can find that reads "old man" include that too (i like to tease him, he's 12 years older than me)
-and finally, a copy of your most current issue of course.
Thanks.
(if there's any empty space left in that box make that two chocolate chip cookies, he deserves it after all)
