Going once, going twice...
Jul. 1st, 2009 07:35 amDoes anyone want a postcard? I've been on a post-card buying binge, and I have more than I could possibly need: pictures of woodcuts from Weimar Germany (German art in the early twentieth century was weird, man), pottery, sunsets, and possibly the world's cutest opossum, although that's gone AWOL for the moment.
And yes, it was actually cute, not just cute for a possum. No, I wouldn't have thought that could be possible either, but it was a baby possum, and evidently the baby versions of furry animals are always cute.
Also, possum is fun to say. Possum! Possum! Possum was apparently originally the correct pronunciation of opossum, the O being there for decoration or something; but linguistic drift has made possum sound backwoods and opossum proper.
But anyway. Postcards! I'm willing to send them overseas if need be (I just got a partial refund on my tuition. I am rich, rich, rich!) although of course they will take a while to arrive.
