OK, not a BD, but I feel like a grenade was just hurled at me.
The following PM I got from W on FB:
I need the following from you. Melatonin 2 bottles Coffee S wants some jelly beans the real stuff D needs Adidas or Nike sneakers in size 6 ---////-------- From the house: The Tupperware for lunch meat The polish pottery The silverware I bought in Germany, in a suitcase. I can give you some instead. My panini grill or if you can buy me one here
First of all, I don't know why she didn't call me. We haven't been strangers to using the phone. I have no problem with the first half of the request, it's the second half that I do. That is a lot of weight and I would definitely be either paying overweight baggage charges or I'd be limited for what military space-a flight I could take if I have too much luggage.
My plan was to fly space-a, travel light and only bring what was necessary. I have two small gifts for the kids I'm bringing. I was going to bring the coffee because W likes it and can't get it in her country.
Second, I don't know how to reply to the second half of the request without saying the wrong things. So for now I'm remaining silent.
If W doesn't call me tonight regarding this "heavy" request, I'll make sure to see IC tomorrow. This really troubles me.
