I shipped a package to an ebay winner and they weren't home 3 times so UPS is sending it back and I couldn't intercept.

But in other non-boring news I got CASE COMPLETE!!!

Not your problem.

Make them pay again for shipping.

I am waiting for a package from UPS that requires a signature so can't leave the house. I may actually get some housework done while I am waiting - that is, if I can get off of Visa Journey in the meantime . . : :yes:)

My package has arrived. I didn't get any of my housework done so it is still waiting to be done. I didn't get out of the house today either. I haven't left off of reading Visa Journey yet. I'm going to have a coffee now - Spicy Eggnog flavour. Yum.

Look out for charles -- he's out of egg nog!

My co-worker and I have started charting the bathroom breaks of another co-worker. He takes 4-5 15 min bathroom breaks a day. He is 22 years old. We can't decide if he's looking at porn on his phone or popping Adderall.

Almost certainly not. I've worked with someone who had IBS before. It's gotten worse over the past two months as he's prepped for the GRE. He also spends much of the day looking at college hoops websites. He's so sweet, but it's just... sigh. Do your job!

I just typed in "####### flower" in my search bar. Am I sinking to new levels or rising to them?

I had to have blood work done this morning and in the lab's waiting room, an old man told me he liked my hair. He was adorable.
