Inside, there was a bubble-wrapped lump. But the bubble wrap parted to reveal a metallic mushroom ornament...It's the most recognizable of mushrooms, the poisonous Amanita muscaria. Which isn't something I've seen in my forest, but it's a mushroom...and mushrooms make me happy.
I still haven't figured out who stuck it in my mailbox, but it almost doesn't matter. The fact that I know someone that would do something like that makes me stupidly happy.
Which reminds me, given the relative lack of snow this winter, I should go check out the forest. Except the dry summer that preceded this dry winter means that that there weren't any mushrooms to begin with...
Oh! Also: happy goddamn Xmas to my secret admirer! And also the rest of you!
