FedEx lied to me. The text I got Sunday evening said my package would be delivered Monday between 10:20 and 2:20. I'm hanging out all day when I'd rather be having an afternoon nap, and in the end night falls and no package. Well, no FedEx package, but USPS came through a day early with two of the four packages they are supposed to deliver, so I do have a couple of new blankets to try out tonight.
My senile stupidity pulled a fast one on me with the blankets though. I ordered five twin sized blankets, or so I thought. When the email saying the packages had been sent arrived I checked the details to make sure everything was right, and damned if my old brain didn't fart and order one of them in king size. King! Well that's going to be awkward. I'll have to fold it over to keep it from dragging on the floor.
The king blanket was one of the two that was delivered today, so I get to try it out tonight. It is very soft, and the color (which I obviously can't see when I'm asleep) is an absolutely gorgeous deep red (I think they call it wine.) This blanket is soft plush, while the other one that arrived Monday is thinner and has a satiny finish, which is not my favorite texture. It's red too, but not as rich and luxuriant a red.
My dinner Monday night was rather too salty and I've drunk a couple of liters of water since eating it. I'm going to be up and down peeing all night. At least I hope I'll be up and down. If I just stay down and pee I'm going to ruin my now blanket. I haven't wet my bed since I was a little kid, but over the last couple of years I've done quite a few things I haven't done since I was a little kid, and it wouldn't surprise me if that was next. I should probably order a package of those absorbent pads next time I get stuff from a drug store.
Anyway, I have to put leftovers in the refrigerator, and maybe eat a piece of PIE! as a bedtime snack, and go to sleep. USPS will probably bring two more blankets tomorrow. I won't count on FedEx to bring anything. It isn't the first such experience I've had with them. I suspect that they have their CEO up their arse. And they have my flannel blanket, the one I'm most eager to get. The worthless cockwombles!
