rejectomorphOnce again Joe Albertson's evil empire has stabbed me in the back, not having my favorite donuts in stock even though Safeway's web site said they did. Not only that, but they didn't have my preferred backup donuts in stock either, so I'm stuck with my third choice. As I was given the misinformation that the donuts were available, I didn't order any substitute foods for my breakfasts for the next two weeks. I'll have to make do with what is on hand, which isn't much.
They were also out of four other times I'd ordered, so they effectively screwed themselves out of about twenty extra dollars of sales which they were screwing me out of my menu. And they'd already crewed themselves out of another twelve when they didn't have my beer in stock, and I chose not to order any backup since there was nothing else I wanted either. I wish I could still get out to buy stuff myself, so I could fill in the gaps with stuff from other stores, but I just don't have the energy anymore.
I've been up since first light Friday morning, and I didn't get a nap, so I'm exhausted, but I haven't had dinner yet and I'm actually hungry, so I guess I'll have to fix something before I go to bed. I could do something fairly easy, but I really want to get started on the more elaborate meals I bought. It's going to be getting way hotter over the next several days, and cooking will become more and more unpleasant.
And damn, I forgot the BOGO deal they had on small watermelons. I'm starting to crave summer fruits, and have none. Just one mango, and the mangos have been disappointing lately. I hate to pester the niece and nephew to fetch more stuff for me, but I'll probably think about it, and then probably not do it. That's my usual way. I wonder if I've got some canned fruit? Awful stuff for the most part, but maybe better than nothing or being a pest.
