Anyone else just lick and close ~50 EMPTY envelopes?
I did. I came rushing into my office ready to get these 1099's out the door (Feb.15th is THE deadline not Jan.31st) and sat down and started licking and sealing. I finished and turned them over to make sure all the addresses were visible in the windows and realized I had grabbed the wrong stack of envelopes.

STOOPID!

Okay lets have a cup of coffee and a mint and start over.

BLECH these things taste horrible. I thought I had one of those spongey things but apparently not.

3. You need to get the yummy-tasting flavor of envelopes
Or the ones with the adhesive strips instead of the glue. You'll thank yourself, really.

4. I once got a paper-cut on my tongue from licking envelopes
Self-seal ones truly were invented by a god I.M.O.
