No, I think it was folded in half because I live in an apartment complex with slightly-smaller-than-mid-sized mailboxes. I’m assuming the mailman’s train of thought was something like this:
“Hmm… this doesn’t fit in the box. I could try delivering to the door, I suppose, but #33 is way the hell over there on the other side of the complex and a whole five feet from the driveway I came in on. *looks at package* Well, it doesn’t say NOT to fold it, so… *folds package and shoves it in box*”

Probably he thought I had ordered some weird Austrian catalog or something… lol

i hope your book was folded in half because your mailbox was so stuffed with fantastic holiday gifts, and not because your mailman is an idiot. that’s awful. i see why amazon uses those hard little boxes. i’m very sorry.

I just got mine today (12/8) here in Oregon.

Suggestion for future mailings: May want to put “DO NOT FOLD IN HALF” or something akin to that on the envelope.

Or perhaps my mailman is an idiot.

But I think after the book spends a night or two under a stack of other, heavier books it should be fine.

I believe that I was going to let you know, then thought about it enough that I thought I’d actually done it, then didn’t do it. Sometimes I do that with paying rent, too. Oops.

I got it, though, and I’m DELIGHTED with mine!!! Beautiful work. :)

I realize I am an ass for not telling you the book arrived and it is lovely. I blame my fillings. Off to Tijuana next week to get them all removed.

Thanks, Tim. Feeling… not sick enough to stay home, not well enough to do any productive work in the office.

Got my package today, they’re beautiful, as I knew they would be. Thank you. Will keep one and give one as a Christmas gift to someone dear to me. Hope you’re feeling better, must’ve been a hell of a bug to inspire Cormac McCarthy thoughts ;-)

Oh, there was a link to the flickr group on the book page.
The flickr group is here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/metamorphosist/sets/72157622715422382/
and the book page is here: http://www.metamorphosism.com/LFK.html.
No obligation to confirm or comment, of course, I was just suffering from a fever this weekend and looking for things to worry about.

My order arrived more than a week ago – sorry I hadn’t confirmed receipt.
