I’m coming up on the 5th anniversary of Commitment to My Creative Self. The traditional gift is wood, modern gift is silverware. Dan Webb would have an easy time with this anniversary (see link for his piece titled, “Feast”). Above photo by Ryan Crase- created for my 3rd anniversary.

Ship It II
Today I had an interesting first experience with my submissions to Ship It II.
I went to the Seattle postal hub during my lunch hour and tried to mail 2 items. The postal employee stated that I would need to put them in a box. I stated that I could not put them in a box, that I wanted them to be mailed as is- I explained that the items were going to a mail art show and that they would not open the box. The individual went to ask a supervisor/manager and I was left waiting for 8 minutes! When the individual returned they stated that the items needed to be in a box- their reasoning? The keyboard could break in half and the postage sticker could slide off the bike seat! Denied.
I went to another Post Office after work and had a much different experience:
I stated right off the bat to this postal employee that I was submitting to a mail art show and that I wanted to mail these items. She said, “just like that” and I said, “yes!” She took the keyboard, looked at both sides and said, “I’m holding art.” Sucess!
