This trade was done through the mail.
So no story about meeting Lynn personally. Nothing like that. But she did write me a funny email about the package I sent her. So here it is now. I present, with no further ado, Lynn's Funny Email:
'We' GOT THE SHOWER ART!!! It's wonderous, extraordinary, and slightly bendy. 'We' galloped around and squealed and snorted for at least 5 minutes. I got winded. 'Paul' is keeping it in his pocket for the time being. I will coax it away from him and hang it in the shower. Or on the front door. The Mona Mouse is FABULOUS, too. 'Paul' said to tell you he swallowed it, but we got it back. It really is water proof. Wow. A bonus shower art!
You are a dear little sausage.
I mailed your Parisite yesterday. I plonked for an extra buck to send it priority mail, so you ought to get it in 2 business days. It's kinda big. I had to sort of make a box work for it, but I think it's going to get there in one piece. If anything falls off, just glue it on anywhere it strikes you. You have an eye for this.
Also included are a couple of things from 'Paul', who wanted you to have them. Fear not. They will not explode or smell funny.
I fixed the costume malfunction on the dog's belly button piercing, but didn't have any more diamonds, so I substituted something else. You'll like it. I think. Yeah, you will.
This has been the best trade EVER. I am so pleased. I will search our home to find more likely trade items. This might sound boring, but you haven't seen our home. We have a lot of really odd crap around here. You like odd crap. I can tell. I will look.
Your potato,
Lynn
Lynn is awesome. I got Parisite in the mail yesterday and I can't even believe how wonderful it is. When I got home I ran straight for it and realized that Doug had set it up next to the heater. Oh NO!
PHew!
It was fine.
Then panic set in again when we realized that the "special surprise" that Lynn's "husband" had included was a can of Spam (now cooked thoroughly) and some circus peanuts (the two items I couldn't fit into "their" Shower Art and had to substitute with an Abe Lincoln pencil topper). These items ended up being fine in the end as well. Or at least I think they are. I refuse to open the Spam to find out.
The painting is great.
Really great.
It is so great in fact that I can't just trade it away for anything just yet.
Here's what has to happen before Parisite can be traded -- and pay attention here -- I'll know if you didn't read this far my little trading psycos:
#1. Before I will trade Parisite, the following items must be traded out of The Sauce:
#2. That's it. There are no other rules. But I started numbering them...and I'm too lazy to delete. No looking back. Just looking to the future.
That's the key to success.
And to a website no one can understand!
Huzzah!
I have accomplished the impossible!
Now I don't even understand.
