I WISH.
You totally should.
My brain is really absent today. I've had to make lists just to remember what I'm doing right now. I'd avoid the cold medicine, but I'd be risking actually feeling bad when it turned into an ear infection. So it is feel stupid and flaky and actually not get sicker or feel ok and normal and then writhe in pain in a couple days.
God, the weekend needs to get here so I can avoid having to think.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Okay, the Dr. Pepper Cocoa recipe really scares me.

Sounds like typical UPS to me. I've had this problem before, and it's based on who sent it out, not on who's receiving it. Basically, Apple said UPS couldn't just leave it without getting a signature.
Yeah, my beef is partly with Apple, because they didn't tell me they were sending it UPS until it was too late, and they also didn't tell me that they'd be sending it signature required.
Hi, Apple. Please for to keep me informed.

Dear Lady,
When I say to you "Your cell phone is cutting out, and I can't understand you. Please call back" The correct thing to do is not to start yelling into the phone. It doesn't make what you're saying any more clear, but it does hurt my ear. I'm still only hearing bits of words, just much much louder.
This is doubly irritating when after straining to make out what you're saying, and repeating everything I say five or six times, you finally say, "I can't hear you. I'm on my cell phone. I'll have to call you back."
Next time, just call me back when I ask, as this will assist me in my effort not to bludgeon you with my handset.
Thanks, DJ

Well, calling UPS was spectacularly unhelpful. Now I'm submitting a delivery change request on their website.
Am tempted to put in Special Delivery Instructions: "My tiny overlord is very unhappy."

I was watching "Good Eats" last night, and Alton Brown used Dr. Pepper to baste his ham (he also threw in about a cup or so of sweet pickle juice). He said any flavorful liquid would work, but Dr. Pepper has the sweetness and the extra kick he prefers.

Just noticed that the operating hours of the facility they want to hold my iPod at are:
M-F 9:30 A.M. - 5:30 P.M.
Sat closed
Sun closed
I'm never getting my iPod, am I?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm never getting my iPod, am I?
This is why I hate UPS deliveries. At least FedEx has decent hours (plus a facility nearer me). And they've never jacked me around by leaving slips with "signature required" unchecked yet talking down to me on the phone for not having signed the slips.
