I’m not ashamed to admit it: I’m a bit of a nerd. I forgo watching most TV shows to sit around and read about strange neurological phenomena, or to fall down an internet rabbit hole trying to figure out what exactly the Higgs Boson Particle is. This week, I’ve gathered up a few favorite snail mail items to send to your most nerdy, intellectual friends; whether they’re interested in literature, science, or just random factoids.
1. American Scientists Stamps 2. Know It All Pencil Set 3. Postcards from Penguin: 100 Book Covers in One Box 4. Medical Women: Vintage Postage Stamps

I kept telling you readers that I would be sharing some of my own snail mail one of these days! Well, the day is here. I sent quite a bit of snail mail this week, a handful of postcards, a few letters, and one poorly timed parking ticket penalty (whoops!)
