the Monarchs bring luck, I'll mourn when they migrate
This semester I was finally smart enough to check the books I need for classes out of the library, so I could instead spend that couple hundred dollars on books for the thesis. I exaggerate, it's not that much; but I've still used a not-inconsiderable amount of money ordering books that will contribute to my developing great muscles when the time comes to move them all from Bard. Anyway, I usually ignore the many emails I get telling me that my book has shipped, is going to ship, is thinking about beginning the process of shipping, etc. Today, however, I read this one, and it made me laugh. So, now you can see it too:
Hello! We received your order for this book through Amazon.com. It made our day!
As soon as we got your order, your book was gently taken from our shelves and placed onto a satin pillow. Then our Certified Packing and Shipping Specialist (C.P.S.S.) stepped forward. A hush fell over the crowd as he carefully placed your book in the finest packing material that $.75 can buy, making sure it's properly cushioned for the journey ahead. Then the package was sealed, and your address was carefully entered on the front. Oh, how we celebrated then!
Of course, everyone insisted on going to the post office to wave farewell to your book and speed it on its way to you! We are shipping your book today by media mail, as specified. You should have your book in 2 - 14 business days (we'll ask the postal workers to do their best to get it there quickly for you!).
