Wip + P.O. box quest story
🕑 Added 2024-02-01 04:55:46 +0000 UTCI like how the water effect came out. I hope it stays nice when colored, haha.
So I'll tell you my experience of getting my first P.O. box.
I finished the sticker designs, I printed and cut 'em, put them in envelopes, wrote the addresses and got them ready to be sent. Next step: Getting a P.O. box.
They asked for some paperwork, no biggie, I got them by the next day. I paid for it and the whole process would be done. Would. I was expecting a key for the locker and what I get is the lock. Yes, the whole lock! They told me that I had to go with a locksmith to get my key and a spare for them. As weird as it sounds, it was easy enough for getting the whole thing done. 1 week of wait and another week of going back and forth, because, surprise, they lost the lock. Somehow they found it, luckily.
Hooray! I got the key to get the locker and finally send those letters! Then the post office guy checks my letters and tells me that the truck that is used for international deliveries is busted in the neighboring city. Any letter going out from Mexico would be sent in one month and a half! The post office is literally one block away from the US port of entry! At the end I could send only 2 out of 15 letters, and those are domestic mail.
I am so sorry for keeping you waiting, but this learning experience is driving me crazy. By the time they told me that, I'd rather wait for next month and send January and February stickers together. The letters are written already after all. One way or another I'll find a way to send the stickers in february.
Thanks for bearing with me. I'll work on the next couple stickers soon to get the mail ready asap.
Getting a P.O. box and sending letters in my hometown shouldn't be this hard π

I'm sorry you're having so much trouble sending out the stickers, Lalo. π The water effect does look amazing though! π
