UPS really delivers....the pain.

It wasn't exactly an easy evening.  The Little Man was on a bouncy rampage, being both too tired to eat food, enjoy jumping in his bouncy, or properly take a nap.  The lovely wife deserved a break, so I spent nearly half an hour cajoling, and rocking the Little Man to sleep.  Then we carefully tip-toed into the kitchen to try to make dinner for ourselves as quick as possible, because you never know if it's going to be at 20-30 minute nap, or an hour and half nap, and you just have to make do.

So of course the UPS man rang the doorbell.  Which rang right over where I had parked the stroller, with the baby in it.  If that wasn't bad enough, of course the Fearless Mop (not quite so moppish looking at the moment as he has had a summer crew cut) needed to bark fiercely from the safety of the other side of the gate at whomever it was at the door.  Needless to say there was much noise, quickly followed by the Little Man's cry, having been woken up from his sound sleep of all of about four minutes.

To top it off, the UPS man had come to the WRONG HOUSE!  Because you know, our nine inch tall brass house numbers aren't right above the doorbell or anything.

I'm honestly surprised they didn't just pretend to knock, ignore all instructions, and just drop it on our porch as they normally do.   Or "pretend" to have made an attempt to deliver, when in fact, we were home the entire day, and saw neither hide nor tail of them.

Grrr.

This is yet another reason why it's not a good idea for me to own firearms. I just might have.

Okay, not really.
