Call it what you want, I call it messin’ with the Kid

I hate to call someone a lying weasel, but the rent check our tenant said he overnighted yesterday, did not arrive today.

Grrrrrrrrr.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

24 hours later:

The Express Mail envelope arrived this morning containing a cashier’s check for the full amount of the rent. Postmarks indicate he did, indeed, dispatch the envelope at 10:33 a.m. Monday from Thorntown, Ind.

The problem, I discovered today, is that there is no such thing as next-day delivery for Jonesboro or its satellite post offices. Ditto Thorntown, Ind. The best we can get is two-day delivery.

Well, now we know. And I can relax from my financial fetal position.
