As expected I had a mostly great time on the east coast. I say mostly because my parents and I ended up spending all of Friday afternoon at the emergency room. First off, let me say that everything turned out to be fine, but we only knew that after hours of waiting and tests. That [...]

I admit: the first mistake was mine. Like an idiot, I left off the street address. A week later I finally checked the status of my package and saw it was Oakland. What the fuck?! I saw that I could Change Delivery Options online and I tried. God knows I tried. Learn More, the pop-up [...]
