Barry,
BM> Ben just couldn't stand Anna being hairy than him!
That's like the meme where this guy's in bed with this woman, and he sees this picture of a gruff man on the nightstand next to the bed. He panics, thinking it's her boyfriend, that's going to barge in on them. Well, he REALLY panics when she replies "That's not my boyfriend. That's me before
the operation".

Can you say "Oh, <expletive!>"?? Yet, I feel like that guy in
the bed right now...please pardon me while I rant for a few
minutes.
On another note, I'm going to stick with getting stuff locally,
or just do without it. The cellphone I had ordered with Consumer
Cellular was shipped Thursday, and was supposed to arrive on
Saturday...I even paid extra to have it sent Express Mail...what
a waste of money that proved to be.
Well, it didn't show up until yesterday (Tuesday), and I got a
note that "the phone was picked up/delivered", and I flew into a
rage, screaming "NOT BY ME IT WASN'T!!". I had signed up with
Consumer Cellular to save $70 a month compared to Verizon.
Besides, they all piggy back off of each others towers, anyway.
So, when I go to the Post Office Box later this morning, that
"picked up person" darn well better be the clerk there who put it
in my Post Office Box. If not, I'm calling the Little Rock Police Department, and initiating a complaint on petty theft to the Post
Office, and look to have someone arrested. I was so angry last
night, that I could not see straight. Nature and a nightmare woke
me, so that's why I'm replying way before the butt crack of dawn.
In both cases of my reply...nothing is sacred or safe anymore. :P
With all the crap that the Post Office has done to me in losing
items, this one may take the cake. I had gotten a Post Office
Box, as folks were stealing stuff out of my mailbox, and off my
front porch. Well, I am now tempted to just cancel the Post
Office Box when it comes up for renewal in August, and have
everything sent here. But, that means I'll have to stay at home
all day, and wait for the mail carrier to decide to show up. I've
seen them sit down at the end of the block for an hour, while
this part of his run is the last one. He apparently can't bring
it on himself to go ahead and complete his job before stopping
for the day.
To those who work for the Postal Service who are reading this,
you need to fire all those slackers who aren't doing their job,
and revoke their hefty pensions. I don't care about the color of
their skin...we all pee the same yellow, poop the same brown, and
bleed the same red. Those hefty pensions are why the Postal
Service is so in debt right now. And, with the poor service, they
wonder why folks are going to email, FedEx, UPS, DHL, etc.
Well, if the phone was stolen, and I end up selling the car
(I'll have to if the glaucoma check next month shows major vision
issues), and then end up losing the computer and internet, I'd be
cut off from the outside world anyway, and no one would know if I
was alive or dead (and I feel that they likely would not
care...as they're tired of all my whining, complaining, bitching,
etc.).
Then, if I was able to get and activate the phone (I'm not
optimistic at this point in time), it'd be a real PITA to have to
notify all of these businesses and contacts of the new address
(never mind if I have to change the phone number with the
cellphone company change), if I end up cancelling the Post Office
Box (even though it'd save at least $200 a year). It's going to
be bad enough setting up the new phone (if it's even there).
Again, if I can't get it locally, where I can pick it up, I'm
going to do without it. I no longer do any business with eBay,
and may do likewise with Amazon.
Believe me, I would feel a lot better if the phone was in the
Post Office Box later this morning, and in good condition. But,
with my luck, it's gone (stolen), or it's damaged. Stressed
spelled backwards is desserts, but I'm wondering if I've become
lactose intolerant...as if I need another medical issue. To me, a
meal isn't complete without dessert...although breakast may be
the exception.
A woman from my medical HMO Plan called yesterday, and she
lamented that "according to Amazon, her address doesn't exist
anymore". So, she had to go through a bunch of hoops to get that
mess straightened out. Her place hadn't been hit by a tornado,
etc...I guess Google Earth could not find it anymore. :P

Surprise!!
I switched to Ting. It uses Verizon or T-Mobile depending on which way your phone swings. Most unlocked phones will work with Ting. It costs
me $10/month (plus a couple bucks tax) for unlimited calls and text, no data. (Data is extra. Or they have plans with data, but I only use the phone at home so I have cellular data set to disabled, and it uses wifi instead.) Tech support is humans with clues, not bots and press 1 to
hear another menu.
With ya on the rants about the world. #teamheadsonpikes
She used to be a werewolf-ette?!
The good news is if they forget the contraceptive don't have to worry about a little one.
I would call to have the shipping charge refunded/credited. I'm
(Mmm: close! Looks to be a follow-up in tomorrow's mail.) I'm
thinking the police would refer you back to the Postmaster at your Post Office and they do an investigation, sometimes with the Police. (That based on loosely being involved.)
Glitter Bomb!! <gg>
WAG: there might be mandatory breaks. Towards the end when I was
working at the store the Meal Break had to be taken no longer than 5.00 hours past your clock-in time, exception was if with a customer and
even that was allowed only so many times. I think the Post Office is unionized so they may even have that extended to the 15 minute break.
Or the carrier could be swapping shoes/boots: in this part of town they also deliver to the individual houses; other parts have the cluster
boxes.
All of the physical carriers are understaffed currently. From 'chats' with the local P.O.'s supervisors COVID took out a lot of carriers and they were understaffed to begin with. Personally I would not want to
be walking on sidewalks, etc., in the dark (icy patches, potential
stuff to stumble over) even with a flashlight. Here the street is
dark: no streetlights. We have some yard lighting.
As for FedEx, etc., they also have their issues.
Well, if becomes necessary to sell the car seems like now is a decent
time based on all the ads for car dealers wanting to buy and pay cash
for used cars. Checkout what transportation services are available for seniors, disabled, etc.
If you need to sell your car you may need to do all that as you can no longer just drive to the Post Office a couple times a week to pick up
your mail.
Some breakfast offerings probably have more sugar and sweetness than
the other meals' desserts!
Hopefully your phone is waiting for you at the Post Office.

I'd say the relationship is over.

That's true...but I would've been spooked by her response.

The way the Post Office email worded it, it sounded like it was
stolen.

He admitted it was the last part of his run, but he just
couldn't finish it first, then take his break.

I did get the streetlight repaired recently (after 3
tries)...it made for a nice view last night as 2-4 inches of
heavy wet snow fell here. Most of it has melted off 24 hours
later. Then, severe weather arrives late Monday. Someone needs to
get the weather calendar a Prozac.
As for FedEx, etc., they also have their issues.
They've never lost a shipment for me...I can't say the same for
the Post Office.

I can get one via Lyft via Consumer Cellular...but I'll wait to
see what the eye exam shows next month.
If you need to sell your car you may need to do all that as you can no longer just drive to the Post Office a couple times a week to pick up
your mail.
Even once a week via Lyft would work. I saw where Uber is
adding an additional surcharge, due to the high gasoline prices.
Hopefully your phone is waiting for you at the Post Office.
It was...it doesn't have many accessories with it, but I'm
learning how to work with it. The migration of data from the
Verizon phone was easier than expected.
