The other day I was headed out to the grocery store. Robbi stopped me as I was leaving and asked if I’d be willing to drop something off at the mailbox. She handed me an envelope, and I was on my way. It was a thank-you note to the editor we met with last week.

I was about to drop it in the mailbox when something caught my eye, just below the return address.

It made me smile.

For those of you who don’t know, “aligncenter” is a command in CSS, or “cascading style sheets,” a programming language that allows a web designer to style a web site.

Which is to say, it doesn’t work on envelopes.

Sometimes, however, it truly is the thought that counts.
