Wow, this day is going slow.
Jun. 16th, 2010 04:57 pmI have 2 hours to go, and things are going very slow. What's going on with all of you? Anything exciting happening?
I bought Without a Clue and a book on the Victorian era in England. Yes, yes I am obsessed. But anyway, I'm kind of ticked because UPS didn't leave them. I tracked the package and it said that a signature was required. When did UPS start requiring a signature for items under 100$? Grr. Now I have to wait until tomorrow to try and contact them, and because I'm at work from 7-12, I really hope I don't miss them a second time. Stupid UPS. Don't they understand I want my items? Sheesh. I'm debating leaving a note on my door: "Dear UPS guy/gal. Please, please, please leave my package. Really, I promise not to tell. There may be a five dollar bill under the welcome mat."
Can you tell I'm going slightly stir crazy?
Here, have a drabble!
"I am never, ever doing that again."
"That's what you said last time."
"I mean it this time!"
"You said that, as well."
"Merry, you are most unsympathetic friend."
"I would probably be much more so if you hadn't eaten the entire pie."
"But it was Sam's special strawberry!"
"I know! And you didn't even save me a bite."
A long silence followed this pronouncement, followed by a deep, rumbling belch.
"It was quite good."
Merry felt quite justified beating his cousin soundly about the head with his pillow.

Date: 2010-06-17 12:14 am (UTC)Pippin rolled in something disgusting outside (she enjoyed it thoroughly), so the poor thing got a bath. She really really hates baths, which last all of maybe 2 minutes, but she's already forgotten it ever happened and is snoozing on my bed.
Pippin should bake Merry a pie all his own. :)

And yes, Pippin should totally make Merry a pie of his own!

If it makes you feel better, Australia Post makes you sign for anything too big to get in your letterbox. Or rather, our postie does, which come to think may not be the norm :/

Yep. Then Pip's bellyache would only be half as bad. And Merry would have one too.
