John: Hi. It's John Coe, from Mr Darryl's law class.
John: I got your number from Jameston. I was kind of hoping you'd want to accompany me to the grand opening of the restaurant down the street from campus.
John: Well, actually, it opened last Friday, but it should still be fun to go.
John: Anyway, you can call me back at 206-███-████.
[10:34 a.m.]
John: Here's hoping you do.

Todd: Hello? Sam?
Todd: Damn, a message. I guess...
Todd: Sam, we really need to talk. In person. It's hell over here, and I need to talk to someone.
[9:13 p.m.]
Todd: Not someone. You. I love you, Sam. You know that. Just...call me back, please. As soon as you can.
Todd: Alright. Thanks. Talk to you soon. Love you.

====================================

I'm telling you Sarah, someone planted that bottle to get me fired. I know it sounds like some bad sitcom or something but I'd swear on my life that those were not my pills. If you just give me one more chance I promise I'll prove that it wasn't me and I'll work harder than ever. Please. Just one chance. If you fire me for something I didn't do it'll seriously hurt my chances of getting another job anywhere - and what if it turns out that I was right? The company will be damaged too. I'm begging you, Sarah. One chance.

Dear Natasha,

I know that you are most likely worried for me. I'm writing to tell you that I am perfectly okay. Yes, the situation is pretty bad, but I'm staying away from the fighting. I found some kind folks who are letting me stay with them for now. I know that it has to be difficult for you at home, not knowing if I'll come back, not getting any letters. I promise you that I will stay safe and come home as soon as I can. There is a refugee caravan leaving the country in two days. I will then be able to get on a plane and fly back. I also want you to know that in the event that I do not make it out, our friend Konor has promised to help you in the coming hardships. Times are rough, and the fact that we both have to work in order to sustain our standards of living tells me that you will need all the help you can get if I am not there to provide it.

With love and with hope,

Renji

Dear Shannon,

How are you? I've only been here for five days and it just keeps getting better and better. I've already gone on two shopping sprees. You're just going to LOVE the things I picked up for you and the fam. I SO wish you were here. Like, you have no idea. Tomorrow we're going to the Eiffel Tower. And I bought the CUTEST beret. I even think it made a guy on the tour look at me. He's a local and his name is Alain, but he doesn't have a noticeable accent or anything. (Pity.) OK, OK, I know you really love hearing about all the souvenirs I got. So far I've gotten like two closets' worth of clothes, the CUTEST little purse, and the most gorgeous-sounding bell ever. Anyway the tour's only just started so I don't have much to say yet, but I'll be sure to write as soon as something really interesting happens! Kisses to everyone at home. 

Your biffle,

Taylor

To Miss Sakura Honma:

Thank you for your application. Unfortunately, we are no longer hiring new employees. Your talents are not needed. We would suggest directing your attentions to another firm, where you may profit more in the long run. It is our grave duty to inform you that while your resume was exceptional and you fulfilled all the requirements, we here at Radusch and Rosner simply need someone with imagination, and frankly, you are lacking in that department.

Yours,
Bill Radusch

====================================

Tony, you took the minutes of the last meeting, right? If you could fax me a copy that'd be great. There were a few points that Deborah made that I want to go over and refine for my presentation next week. Hoping for a promotion. I've been talking to the boss off and on and I think I'm gonna get it. Anyway, thanks again, and happy New Year.

Letters do not always make the journey to their destination. Mailboxes can be knocked down, couriers detained. Even emails can be corrupted or buried in the void of modern technology. In the hope that lost messages might find their way home, the Postman has taken it upon himself to record them here. If you have an undelivered letter, you may send it to foreverpostal@live.com and the Postman will put it on this blog.

To protect the innocent, addresses (both street and email), phone numbers, and the like will be censored. For their owners' own good.
