I had an Amazon order go a little like that. One afternoon I received the order and two days later I got an email from them stating it was undeliverable because it was lost by the carrier and said I should contact them to either reorder or get a refund.
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I would keep the refund and try calling to leave glowing feedback for the CS person to make it even with the universe.

Punishingly Intricate
What Shrift said. Honestly, whatever extra goods you got probably costs Target less than whatever it costs them to pay someone to take care of the refunding the refund for you.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
augh meeting from 7:30 to 10AM on a Friday.
"Asshole" was first used to describe an unpleasant person during World War II
This is kind of amazing. I would have thought it originated much earlier, had I thought about it.

Oh, good, the meeting actually goes to 10:15.

Because books.
I know it would be worse for you, but I was so hoping you would say "to 11:00."

HA. It would definitely not be good. I've already mentally checked out and am working on my yuletide signup. Fortunately, they record these meetings.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I had pizza for lunch, and it was so delicious, but now I am so full and sleepy. I have to present to a small group at 1:30, but at least after that, it's just one-on-one meetings and sliding into the weekend.
I have so many fun plans this weekend, but really I just want to stay in the house for two days! Oh well.
