We overlapped our service a few years...:)

Honestly, I am loathe to send emails for anything other than communications needed for specific purposes.

I can’t bring myself to write them for any kind of special occasion (Birthday, anniversary, whatever)

I have to write a card and snail-mail it...then again, I am someone who decries the clothes people wear to church, funerals, and dinners at fancy restaurants, meaning I cling to tradition.

At work the other day (I work at a hospital) they handed out Santa hats to anyone who wanted one (it was kind of a fun thing) so I took one and wore it around.

I have to say...I was uncomfortable, but not for the reason you think. I am someone who takes a hat off when I go indoors, especially when in a hospital (In the Navy, you always had to uncover if you went inside, specifically in a hospital) so I always do it if I go to a restaurant or any other indoor function.

While I had the hat on, I had a nagging feeling I was breaking a rule, and it became so distracting to me I had to remove it...:)
