Up at 3. Had coffee etc. and finished off the 20 packages I had staged, and was out the door at 5. The first drop-off was at the UPS place because I'd accidentally set up one box to go by UPS. I was flabbergasted when I saw what I'd done - all these years just work for Ken, not even counting all the time before, and I'd never shipped something UPS that I didn't mean to. But Ebay throws all these options at you and UPS won, there. The people at that UPS store are really nice though.
Next I went over to 5 Guys and got a bacon cheeseburger lettuce wrap. For some reason they only charged me for a regular burger, $8-odd instead of $10-odd. I sat and ate it at that little walkway that goes from Chipotle etc to the street. It's a nice place to eat that's away from any foot traffic. It was a good burger too!
It was now 6, the time I normally am just leaving the shop (I'd left earlier because the UPS place closes at 6) I went to the post office and did my drop-offs, then doubled back and took one large box to FedEx, and I was done. I picked up a few onions and a couple fennels from behind H-Mart, and found some odd packing materials. Because I now have onions and fennel and a pepper sitting here, I took my old route back, along Junction Avenue and by the FedEx hub, and checked the "Indian" dumpster. Boxes and boxes of psyllium husk, but I've got plenty of Metamucil here. What's nice is, I now have a firm idea of which one of the dumpsters it is and can check it regularly.
Tomorrow's a holiday so I might find something fun to do.
