little bitty girl

Dear Canada Post,

I had a very important present to send out. I knew I was running late and had told the recipient of the gift that she would not receive it until the week after the festivities. We were both a little sad, we might have even shed a tear but we were both reconciled with the fact that she would not get the package.

When I went to the post, the service person told me that because I wanted to insure the package to trace it, that I might as well send it by express post. AS YOU CAN SEE BY THE RECEIPT, IT STATES QUITE CLEARLY "XPOST." It was merely a $12 difference and my friend would receive the gift latest by Thursday. I told Marie and we both giggled with glee.

Thursday came and went and no package. We still both had high hopes. There is NO WAY Canada Post would screw us over! Friday, after all, was another day.

As the hours ticked by today, we finally had to give up. Marie said she was leaving work when she noticed a Canada Post van come by her office. She made her boyfriend turn the car around and raced back. Turns out, the package was for the building next door.

She walked dejectedly back to the car.

So, thank you Canada Post. Thank you for ruining our joy. Merry Mother Fucking Christmas to you.

P.S I want my extra $12 postage back.
