I recently won a gift certificate from Eden Fantasys via my friend Rita over at Fighting Frumpy. I was super stoked to shop online, perusing the selection with Jeff. We didn't get anything too insane. Been there done that. Plus we wanted to stay in the $25 gift certificate budget. We ordered a game & some paint:) I was soooo excited yesterday when a box arrived from them. But then I opened it. And the weirdness ensued. A HUGE bottle of lube. A vibe. Hmmm I didn't order this shit! WTF?! Then I looked at the shipping form. It had someone else's name and address. The strange part was the address was in South Bend, IN. SOUTH BEND! That's where I grew up. And it was on O'Brien Street which is the 1st street I lived on. CRAZINESS! What the hell is the likelyhood that of all cities in the states to send me a wrong package from, it's from my home town. I just wish it had been someone I know-haha.
There was another time the cosmos brought weird shit my way. When I was living in Guam (a tiny island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean), I was in a packed nightclub and turned around to see a girl I grew up with. She happened to be in the Navy & her ship was at port for a few days. What the hell is the chances of that happening?
I used to work with Eden Fantasies and they're totally inept. This doesn't surprise me.
ReplyDeleteHow weird!!! Sorry about the mix-up ... but at least you got a cool story out of it. :)
ReplyDeleteI love weird coincidences like that. One summer when we were in Germany, Curtis and I were picking grapes in a little vineyard on the Mosel river with some other Americans. We could hear the other people talking as they picked. And this one girl was talking about her college roommate - which happened to be someone I went to school with! Keep in mind - my hometown has all of 1500 people - there were a whopping 35 people in my graduating class. Crazy!
Anyway, let me know if you're having trouble getting your shipment straightened out. Unless you decided to just keep the lube. ;)
Rita that is so weird. Just goes to show you the world is smaller than we think. I'm sure they'll get everything straightened out. I just hope i get to keep the other stuff too! Bonus:)
ReplyDeleteOMG!! That is the most awesome story I've heard in recent history!
ReplyDeleteThe fact it's happened to you twice, w/the package destined for someone or place you knew before is extra twisty! WOW!
