Boromir, Where Art Thou?

For those who don't know, I am now working in the main office of where I was working before...so I am no longer dealing with crazy people (besides coworkers) on a regular basis. My duties include funneling the incoming inventory and taking care of special orders. I told you all that to tell you this: a customer of ours ordered an item, the sword of Boromir, last September. Now, there are much better items we have in stock they could have picked, but no. Fine. They're the customer, its their money. Our standard turn around time for special orders is 4-6 weeks. Because the manufacturers are a cabal of cretins, a murder of morons, a veritable flock of fools, they didn't tell us that the item wouldn't be available until um, now. Its STILL not here. And the customer cancelled the order today.

This is not the bad news. The bad news is that I know, I just know that when UPS comes by today (what can brown do for you?) they're going to have it. There will be great suffering in Guilder if it is. I kid you not. Cats and dogs living together, mass hysteria, etc.

Today me and Nyx are going to run around downtown (finally got her on the phone). Should be good times. There's a pearl exhibit at one of the museums and she made puppy dog eyes until I said we could go. We'll probably hit a bookstore and stuff as well. We're nerds like that.
