I was tracking a package i ordered and it arrived at my local post office on the 30th. I still havent gotten it. How can it get lost at its last stop before here. That really makes me frustrated even though its only a 5 dollar package.

what may have happened is that they scan the entire pallet of packages by one universal barcode, not each package individually. sooo...say your package was originally in that group of packages, but got lost somewhere along the way, when the final stop scanned that barcode it would still be assumed that your package was with the rest, although that may not be true. i only know that b/c that is what happened when i ordered coffee through amazon one time...it looked like it had arrived with the rest of that group, but in reality had been left behind at a stop along the way.

perfect example of what happens when a company lies to congress and says they need to cut back hours b/c of $$ issues that are not as bad as they would like everyone to believe. (sorry, disgruntled postal wife here;)

I got it in yesterday. Thanks.

Good morning, or at least I am hoping it is. I am not sure if I caught a stomach virus or what but did not do well last night. I hope it was just what I ate and have not passed anyting on to Elizabeth. I don't feel too bad this morning but still not feeling great.

Robin, I hope your to do list goes quicker than expected.

Sonya, how are you doing today?

Supergrover I don't know how you do it with all those college students. I hope they love Travis so well that they just offer him the job on ths spot. Is the other interview somewhere that would be better?

Libby, I don't love the other job and I'm not sure why he is even interviewing, but I'm letting it play out since he is interested. I don't want to drive a wedge over something that may not even pan out, kwim? And I am hopeful/semi-confident that this first job- the one we both really want him to get- will come through.

Just dropping in to say:

Crap. My stress denial has left and I am freaking the f out with all that needs to happen in the next 72 hours, and finding out in the next 48 if I need to pack up everything and move in three weeks.

F.

I totally just ate a whoopie pie and it didn't even dent the stress.

Maybe I'll take up drinking something a little stronger than diet coke.

I repeat, F.

Off to hyperventilate.
