I’m expecting some child recreating superhero stunts and gerting hurt

    A friend of mine was in San Diego on business where her company put her up in a swanky hotel. I drove down from LA to meet her. I had some bills that were due so I brought them with me, wrote my checks (this was before online bill pay), stamped my envelopes, and asked the front desk to please include them with their outgoing mail.

    For those who haven’t figured it out, that’s what Andy Dufresne did at the bank in Shawshank Redemption.

    Lucky for me, they were nice about it and they actually did mail my letters for me, but I still cringe when I think about it today.

        I guess I just felt weird after thinking about it because I wasn’t some guy in a fancy suit closing out a huge bank account and asking to mail a package in a Manila envelope, but just a 20-something girl in jeans and a tank top mailing out utility bills that were almost overdue. Probably just my own insecurities at the time.
