I'm horrible about sending presents ... I get so impatient waiting for the person to get it and say they like it - or it fits - or whatever. It is

Posted by Never Go Full JenBro (aka JenBro) Feb 14 '11, 16:47

the most irritating thing for me ... the waiting ... and this package I sent last week from the post office is particularly infuriating because I couldn't post it "delivery confirmation" or "add insurance" because the stupid automatic postage machine for the post office's special flat rate boxes couldn't print the stupid labels for them. GRRR ... so ... I'm waiting ... not patiently at all ... just waiting.

You give great packages! Never worry. -- nm - OAE Feb 14, 17:10 1
- :D Thanks! and sorry it took me a while to notice this post :) -- nm - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 18:35
you and beth444 must never meet -- nm - cupixie Feb 14, 16:49 39
- Dammit, pixie. Names have power. nm - ralph wiggum Feb 14, 16:55
- who is beth 444 - I checked the wikki - but didn't see her -- nm - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 16:54 36
  - beth 445, wasn't it? and denise was 1234? hotkiss is 7348? (I work in finance.) -- nm - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 16:55 23
    - oh yea? well what number was I until I forgot my password? -- nm - dogbert Feb 14, 17:24 2
      - 183. -- nm - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 17:38 1
        
        impressive. you don't happen to remember my password while you're at it, do you? -- nm - dogbert Feb 14, 17:39
    - Yeah, 445. You really do know the numbers. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Feb 14, 16:56 17
      - I owe it to my fellow posters to know things about them. most of you all are my friends. I remember things about my friends. - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 16:58 16
        
        When I do this it just comes off as creepy. Somehow you make it work for you. -- nm - Fuzzy Feb 14, 17:37
        
        I have trouble keeping CQ and RC straight as far as which one is afraid of spiders - any help there? -- nm - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 17:02 10
        
        I love all animals. fascinated by them. Also, you can remember me as poolboy. :) -- nm - CQ Feb 14, 17:22 2
        
        I like them too ... but not so much spiders - they scare me - but oddly - I can't kill them - I have a strict catch and release policy. - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 17:24 1
        
        same here on the catch and release. funny, I was just looking at images of the costa rican crab spider earlier. cool looking arachnid -- nm - CQ Feb 14, 17:25
        
        it has to be RC. *has* to be. CQ cleans pools; he's used to pests. -- nm - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 17:05 6
        
        ok ... this is good - I'll remember CQ as cleaning queen for cleaning pools .. no fear of spiders ... YESSSS -- nm - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 17:06 4
        
        yeah, you can go ahead and lose the queen thingy, thanks :) -- nm - CQ Feb 14, 17:23 3
        
        oops - heh heh - how about clean quick -- nm - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 17:24 2
        
        I think he used to be crashquick. is that right? -- nm - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 17:43 1
        
        yeppers, changed to CQ because I was getting all mixed up with crash and his posts. I was a newbie, heh -- nm - CQ Feb 14, 17:48
        
        Correct. -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 14, 17:06
        
        Aww. We are friends. :) BTW, what was that free tuition called for the MBA program? -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Feb 14, 17:00 3
        
        at penn state it's a grad assistantship (you work 10 hours a week and they pay your tuition plus a small salary.) -- nm - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 17:01 2
        
        Ok, cool. When the time comes (much later), I guess I will just inquire about such things at each school. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Feb 14, 17:07 1
        
        bigger schools with small programs have way more cash for assistantships. I had to beat up case western some to get them to offer me a free ride plus - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 17:09
    - wow - girls got a head for numbers! -- nm - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 16:56 1
      - *snicker* -- nm - cupixie Feb 14, 16:59
  - an old poster who *really* wanted to know when her secret stalker got his gift one year -- nm - cupixie Feb 14, 16:54 11
    - there's just nothing better than finding the perfect gift for someone - an unexpected perfect gift - you know? -- nm - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 16:58 8
      - (viagra was not the perfect gift for me.) -- nm - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 17:00 7
        
        oh crap, that's right - cupixie Feb 14, 17:01 6
        
        I'm sensing an ST story here ... spill it! -- nm - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 17:04 5
        
        i don't even remember why she sent The Box in the first place now - cupixie Feb 14, 17:09 4
        
        There was a package sent for one of the Vegastravaganzas...was it that? -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 14, 17:13 3
        
        it was the first one. I'd met like nobody and this chick sends me viagra. - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 17:45
        
        oh yeahhh -- nm - cupixie Feb 14, 17:17 1
        
        *LOVES that Meg has a better memory than you :D * -- nm - Never Go Full JenBro Feb 14, 17:18
    - IIRC, it wasn't even secret stalker. It was just an unsolicited gift. nm - ralph wiggum Feb 14, 16:57 1
      - it was the box with the six pack of viagra (with one missing!!) in it she sent to zabber harries. -- nm - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 16:57
- posting foul, werner herzog! -- nm - amanda "new chairs, yo!" jones Feb 14, 16:52
