First of all, I'm a union supporter, and a union member. This is in no way an attack against the posties...
It's just a b*tch. I *finally* talked myself into ordering a pair of Orthaheel sandals (Lori - the ones with the flower - saw them in the Lounge thread and HAD to have them), and *finally* bit the bullet and ordered a toy that I have not been able to find locally... Needless to say, all of this stuff is probably sitting around the American border, waiting to be picked up by Canada Post.
Hope it doesn't last too long.
