The case of the pink bunny chapstick...

Whew!

One month down, another 30 days to go, exactly. So far, all is well.

I sent Jeff a care package this last week. Granted he's in US waters, but I had to fill out a customs form at the post office..hmm, ok? I guess it's cause it's not shipped to a city and state, it's shipped to an FPO AP address...aka a military box.

So, I just sent food and other things, because he's on a ship and apparently the food is awful, but you eat it becuse you're starving and theres not a costco on the ship to get real food at. I sent him 2 cards because I was torn on which one to send, so I said eh, we'll send both! And I sent him eggo waffle cereal, because he eats eggo waffles every morning for breakfast here. Some cookies, his favorite past time, gummi bears. Among some other food related items. And lastly, I sent a wedding picture which he loves. I had it printed off and framed.

Well, I get an elated email from Jeff yesterday (he can't call) saying how he got my package, but he wasn't to certain about the pink bunny chapstick.... read the contents I sent, chapstick isn't food! I sat there absolutely puzzled as to what the devil he was talking about. I asked "what are yout alking about?!" and he goes "You sent me chapstick!!" My eyes grew big, and I replied, with "ummmm no, I did no such thing! I sent you food and a picture and cards! There's no chapstick in there!"

So we have a mystery on our hands here at this point. How the heck did the chapstick get in there? Oh, and it's a cherry fragrence, with pink bunnies on it, apparently from Avon.

So, either someone put someone elses stuff in his box, or it's a prank I'm thinking. Well, come to find out, he got a brown package or whatever color. The one I sent was a large taped to death one. I guess the box he got had a "we care" letter taped to it explaining how my box had gotten destroyed. So, mystery partially solved there, someones contents got into his box, because my box that I sent, got torn to shreds.

So I inform him, I'm not the pink bunny chapstick sender. Well, I guess he had already been using it because he thought it was something I sent, HA! I hope it wasn't used by someone with alot of coldsores and put in his package! I'm pretty sure between customs ripping it open, and the box falling apart, it just got mixed up. I will say this, he did question me about my views on his masculinity with pink bnunny chapstick.

In short, it wasn't me, and things at the post office do get mixed up from time to time. And, I haven't ordered Avon since I was like 10. So, Jeff keep wearing the pink bunny chapstick, it's cherry for crying out loud! And, it has bunnies on it!
