My previous story describing fruitless attempts at purchasing Lysol is not over . It would seem it was but…. chapter one.
Two emails and two phone attempts at rectifying this have resulted in my credit card being hit twice for the one case of Lysol I’ve yet to receive. The two boxed fans delivered in error instead of Lysol are still on the stoop awaiting pickup. They have been out there so long they’ve become encrusted with lizard shit. One box has become a home to a large frog while the other has had a corner gnawed by what I hope was a squirrel.
On the road home from a trip to central Florida on Easter Sunday the wife chirped out…
” Lets buy barbecue so we won’t have to cook ” and I was open to that chirp though I wasn’t sure where I’d find barbecue on Easter Sunday. Once home we were delighted to find Wally’s Barbecue willing to take our online pick up order for chicken and ribs for two . The credit card info was promptly taken and the website quickly informed me my order would be ready for pickup at precisely 1:40 p.m. And I was right on time ….
…. to discover Wally’s was actually closed for Easter
The wife’s plan B was get wings and pizza delivered and with the customary efficiency we’ve all come to expect the pizza arrived right on time, but the driver knew nothing of the wings .
Such is our life of convenience
