So this is the odd update. Where something really freaking crazy happens and I can't really explain it. Here goes:
So, I went to check my mail box today. Usually this is an uneventful deal where I check it and nothing is there or it turns out that something is there and it gets my hopes up. But whatever it is turns out to be something really stupid like advertisments for something or other. When I checked it today, I found the stupid advertisments and a package slip. I don't normally get packages after my b-day so I figured that it was either A) a mistake on the mail room's part (or) B) a really, really, really late b-day present from some sad extended family member. As it turns out it is a package actually labeled to me, so that rules out 'A' for the time being.
So I sit down for a while looking at the box. It has my name on it. It looks like a book so whoever got it for me must know that I like to read. Not that that's a big surprise that somebody likes to read. Anyway, I opened the box with the book inside to find the book seems to be something I might order. It is a science fiction book. However, it is by a person I've never heard of and the title of the book is something that I've never heard of either. When I looked at the order form that came with the book it turns out that I ordered the book. From
www.A1books.com. I have never even been to that website. But somehow it has my name, my address, and it has sent me a book that I might one day read. But the fact that this book was ordered by me rules out option 'B' now.
So that leaves us with the unexplainable. WHERE THE HELL DID THIS BOOK COME FROM?!?! It is addressed to me. It has my name on the order slip. Hell, I even had to sign for the book when I got it from the mail room.
And I'm still sick. WTF?!?!
