UGH. What a day.

UGH.  What a day.  Went to work to ship a catalog order (which means lots of fun rules and extra things for me to do, otherwise, we get chargebacks)... well, they updated their shipping instructions so that they made PRECISELY NO SENSE AT ALL.  I had fun with that.  I had to call and email the company, which they ignored, until they emailed all like, "Hey, when are you shipping this order?"  To which I replied, please check your email and voicemail.  I need help."  So, I finally got that all worked out.

THEN, since they now want to be shipped by FedEx instead of UPS I had to find a drop-off location for FedEx.  FedEx will not pick up the same day unless you ship Express, and this company wants to be shipped Ground.  ANYWAY, there was supposed to be a place right in Oxford.  Please note:  SUPPOSED TO BE.  I drove around for an hour in this damn heat with no a/c until I found where this business USED TO BE.  It is now closed down.  So then I had to go to another FedEx place, which was a little farther out, but at least I know where it is.  Then, on to UPS to drop off a smaller box.  So I get there, drop the box off, get back in my car, and it promptly just turns the fuck off and won't start again.  🙁

Mom to the rescue again.  I call her phone, crying, because I'm so hot and so frustrated and so headache-y and so stressed over this stupid car, and all the stupid hoops I've had to jump through today.  I don't do well in the sun; it makes me horribly sick.  Itchy, and migraine-y, and nauseated.  Well, my hands are sunburned, and I feel like shit, and Shaun is camping so I miss his face like WHOA.  I'm about to shower and probably call it a night.  I am so done with today.  Damn.

Thanks to my mom for leaving Munford to come and get me, driving me from Oxford to Talladega and then finally, back to Saks.  That is a lot of driving in this damn heat.  I'm just glad to be home.  In the air conditioning with my dogs.

I just needed to vent.  Thanks for listening.
