Taking care of bidness

Dec 30, 2011 13:55

Took myself to the post office and am having my mail held until I can replace the incredible disappearing mailbox. I actually HAVE a box on a post to replace it with, but I need to have the old post dug up and get a bag of concrete to set the new post in.

I've been concerned, not so much about missing bills, because I can check the usual suspects online, but about my 'zines and the package I'm expecting from Estonia. Not that it would disappear---they don't deliver those, I always have to call for them---but they might send it back, and *that* would be dire.

What about my glasses? I had the inspired idea of having them shipped to J. She's home all day in case they're delivered by UPS, although I doubt it; $5.95 tends to be post office econo shipping, in which case they'll go neatly into her locked mailbox.*

So that's one less thing to worry about. And the day after tomorrow, it'll be next year. Woohoo, the much-vaunted 2012, alledged End of Days. After 2010 and 2011, anything worse would pretty much HAVE to be the apocalypse.

o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o

* And then she'll call me and I'll zoom over there and try them on and see if they upgrade my looks through their sheer awesomeness, or if they just make the view less blurry....
