thursday december 3

today i got a call back from a store i'd ordered a gift card from on wednesday.

this was a relief -- during our previous phone conversation, when the employee had read the mailing address back to me, i wasn't 100% sure she'd said the town name right (it's a small town that she very easily could never have heard of). after i'd hung up, i'd debated calling her back to double-check that the address was accurate, but ultimately decide it was probably fine. after all, the postal code, house numbers, and street were right -- it'd probably find its way there.

still, i was relieved that she was now calling back to correct that town name. except, as it turned out, she had the mailing address perfectly correct. it was my credit card number that she'd gotten wrong.
