A FedEx Fantasy…

I had to restrain myself yesterday. (Hard to believe, isn’t it?)

I had a very important package arriving via FedEx.

Every time the dog began barking I ran to the door, hopping the baby gate and nearly breaking my neck… EVERY TIME.

I began to fantasize about calling FedEx

Dip Answering the Phone: Hello FedEx

Me: Hello, I’m having a package delivered, umm today, at least according to the website, it’s in the truck at this very moment.

Dip: How can I help you? (because in my fantasies people are always polite and anxious to help!)

Me: Well, I’m figuring that the delivery guy has got to have a cell phone, right?

Dip: Of course!

Me: Well, I’d like you to give him a jingle (because in my fantasies I always revert back to swingin’ 50’s lingo)
and tell him not to by shy about knocking. Tell him that gorgeous, colonial door knocker (a present from my mom) is not just there for looks… he should definitely, enthusiastically use the darn thing!

Dip: Will do, ma’am, I’ll call him right now!

Me: Thanks, you’re a peach! (It’s my fantasy… I can refer to people as fruit!)

    Aw, Amy that was sweet in its honesty. :-)

    I loved it. In my humble opinion, jackass is a term reserved for those we love the most. At least, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
