    You probably have 2 mail carriers.

    Many years ago, we stopped getting mail MWFSat (most weeks). Mail came in small volume the other days. We then got a note in our box asking when we wanted our mail. Turns out they confused our house number with someone else's. They were holding our mail and delivering theirs (when theirs was supposed to be held). We were NOT happy, and neither were the other people. Sadly, I doubt anything was done to keep it from happening again.

    Yikes.
    That might be it. The tracking information for the missing package says that it was out for delivery yesterday, but now says "status not updated" or something and has an expected delivery date of 1/6. And it's not here, because a number of other things arrived today and it wasn't in there. Geez.

    Dear self:
    Please stop obsessing over some thing that's probably in your room at home. Go back for a weekend and look thoroughly...though hopefully when mom's not around, as it will involve stuff ending up everywhere!
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Dear Weather Goddess:

    Sorry about buying the Swix ski table legs yesterday. I ordered them long ago before I knew you were feeling so out of sorts (I understand, believe me).

    What can I do? Leave my car out in the driveway with the sunroof open?

    Please don't. I'm enjoying our lovely weather. Rain will come soon and then we'll have it for DAYS on end.

    Rain will arrive with a vengance, in the Bay Area at least, starting a week from tomorrow.

    It's the fault of those crazy rando people... Has there EVER been an SF 200K that did not get rain?
