Canada Post vs USPS

Shawshank, May 22, 2021

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.

I wish Canada Post was like this. It snows 4 inches and there’s a note at the post office saying No mail deliver today…. Sorry.

Case in point. I think that I sent Crystal a package basically at the same time as she sent one to me. The package I sent to her is out for delivery. OUT FOR DELIVERY. The one she sent me has been sitting in CaptialCity – next province over for two days. It’s sitting there like a scared kitten in a basement. Frozen, not moving.

In the past I’ve watched a package sent to me, get to CaptialCity in my province, sit there, and the go to the next province over, then come back to my province to be sent to my town.

And, NO MAIL DELIVERY ON SATURDAYS. It just shuts down here. Don’t even get me started on text or email updates here. They offer email updates. It doesn’t work. I’ve tried.

Well, at least Crystal will be able to enjoy the greatness that is Hanch today. That’s what matters! And she can destroy something beautiful – a donated Twilight book for one of her gorgeous wreaths!

Another day, another early rise. Up again early today, but not as early as Crystal. I didn’t feel her get out of bed this morning, but I think I stretched out and she was gone. Pippin curled up next to my neck and just snuggled right in for a little while. she’s currently loafed up…

The amount of pills I’m taking counteracts the booze I’m drinking

Finally I get Jetpack to actually upload an image without throwing error messages at me. Jetpack is nice, until it stops working, and then it’s a little bitch. I remember a time before Jetpack, when Wordpress was actually good. Bastards. Once again the weekend is over. We went over to Shady Acres for dinner, and…
