UPS Sucks!

My dear friend, Kelly, has bitten me with the stamping bug. (And before you think it's some foreign disease that only close friends share, let me point out that it is, in fact, a craft. As in card-making, and gift-tag creating, and Versa-mark and embossing powders galore, OH MY!)

She figures all's fair considering I introduced her to scrapbooking a while ago, and she became obsessed with that, and then she graduated into this and why should she suffer this madness alone? I am nothing if not a supportive friend...

Anyhoo, me and another good friend, Sue, ordered a bunch of products through Kelly's business (here's the link and I strongly suggest you check it out! http://www.inkandstampit.blogspot.com/) and we have been anticipating delivery with bated breath. Truthfully, we hoped we'd close our eyes and everything we wanted would just magically and instantly appear in front of us but we live in the real world most of the time, so we understood that delivery would actually take a few days. UPS promised Kelly the goods would be delivered to her last Friday. Except the eagle did not land. That's the Canadian translation for WHERE THE FUCK IS OUR STUFF?

The box of goodies is coming all the way from Utah and we're wa-a-y up here in Canada. It's a few days late, and I swear to god, if UPS doesn't get its act together, well, well, well...there's not a whole lot I can do.

But I'm really mad at them because their slowness is holding up my entire Christmas-tag making schedule. And once I'm off track there, all hell will break loose because the tags must be done before I can start on the Christmas baking, and that has to be done before I can even think about decorating, and do you see how UPS is in danger of screwing up my holidays??

The good news is I don't rely on them to deliver chocolate. That would be awful.

Dare I say that I ordered something online, to be delivered by UPS within 6 days and it actually only took 3 days for it to show up on my doorstep?
