Tuck-Sun

When we first moved here, we had a slight issue with our mail. It took FOREVER for our mail to get forwarded here. Maybe it just felt like FOREVER because I was waiting for a replacement to the credit card I lost just one day before leaving Bealeton (timing, gotta love it). Anyway, I called the Bealeton Post Office to make sure they had all they needed and were really forwarding my mail.

The Postmaster was trying to be helpful. He found our forwarding order and was reading it back to me. Everything sounded ok until he got to the city.

"That's in Tuck-sun, Arizona." he read to me.

I paused.

"Um, you mean Tucson, right?" I asked.

Next followed a pause so pregnant I heard a baby cry after a while. Then the Postmaster laughed:

"AHHH, I was just testing you."

mmmm...hmmm...

One of the many reasons why I miss Bealeton.
