Shedding

It's a little bit early for me to shed my winter pelt, but this morning I started shaving my beard, more as a comfort ritual than anything else. I only got partway; I look really asymmetrically scruffy right now, but I don't have any fresh blades. I don't know when I'll be able to get my hair cut; I may have to (try to) do it myself.

I placed a small order with Dierbergs just now, with delivery anticipated between 5 and 6 PM. Milk: one of the few options available was a gallon of 1%, which pleases me. Coffee filters: Mellita Brown #4, 100 pack. Razor blades: an 8-pack of Mach 3 cartridges. Bread: a half-loaf of Lewis Hawaiian. (For some reason, Lewis has switched to half-loaves, but they're the only source of potato bread that I have easy access to, and their Hawaiian isn't bad either.) I considered buying some ice cream, but neither B&J nor H-D is on sale, and I refuse to spend over $5 for a pint of ice cream.

Dierbergs delivery requires a subscription to Shipt; I'm on a two-week trial period now, but I suppose I'll have to make the payment soon enough. I can live with it.

Really looking forward to the razor blades!

That's *Two*

The order has not arrived.

Shipt sent me a message that it had been placed on my doorstep at 8:03.

I received the message at about 8:10, and immediately checked. No dice.

I am not pleased.
