I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Hmmm, everywhere you go package delivery may be screwed up by either UPS or USPS.
So nice.
My plan is still to leave a giant message and hope for the best.

Yes, I have complained to the Postmaster General. A short time later the carrier told me he didn't appreciate my complaints. Service got worse until he changed routes.
See, you're a more forgiving soul than I. This would be the point at which my new hobby would become making myself more of an inconvenience to the postmaster than replacing the crappy carrier would be.

UPS is reporting that my order has been delivered to doorstep. Let's see if the box is there when I get home...

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
LOVE that movie!
Aaand the trap has reset and awaits its next victim.

I feel your pain. My carrier likes to crumple, yes, literally crumple into a ball, the mail into the box. If it's too big to fit in the box, he doesn't want to climb the three flights and willl leave it downstairs easily in sight with my unsecured front door. For a while, I was consulting and working at home, and I was going to get an outside mailbox.

Got the DVDs at Costco yesterday. I had to hunt a bit; they only had six copies. After a full evening of trying to get my home computer to run (what made me think I could try Linux AND use a modem with very little techie experience?) managed to stay up late last night watching the first three eps. I missed a lot of eps that season (stupid local affiliate changing the airtime without warning!), so it's almost like new for me.
On the UPS horror stories: My dad ordered a computer for a friend. She was going to be out of town and she lives in a remote area, so he specified that it should not be delivered until after the day she was to return. They delivered the day after she left, and left it by her front door, which is not protected, rather than in one of the several protected areas nearby, or the open and empty garage. There was a huge rainstorm, and the computer was soaked and ruined. The computer company refused to replace it because it UPS's fault. UPS refused to replace because it was they had no records (it was a week and a half later, after she returned, that the complaint was lodged). What a mess. I have had excellent service from UPS other places (Thomas who delivers to UAA is WONDERFUL!), so I think it is location dependent.
LOVE the FedEx guy here. He tried to check with my neighbors, who are friends of his, about holding a package for me. When they weren't home, he looked me up in the State employee directory and called me at work to make delivery arrangements for me. Wonderful man.
