OK. So, here's what I went through to get this shadow:
My cell phone has free Canadian long distance on weekends and I finally got sick of wanting #92 so badly and not having it. There is nowhere that sells MUFE anywhere near me. Saturday before last, I sit down with my laptop and pull up the phone numbers for all the MUFE locations across the country. Of course, the first bunch of places I call don't have it. Finally, I reach a MUFE in Ottawa and they have ONE left.
There's a problem. There's a hole punched through the UPC code. So, the girl tries going through and using all the digits 0-9. Nothing works. Turns out TWO numbers are missing. She takes my name and number and promises to call me back after she tracks down the UPC code. Half an hour later, she calls back as I'm in the shower, but I hop out and grab the phone anyway. I give her all my info and she rings it through, and gets it set up to be shipped. Hurray!! I think this process took about an hour and a half total, starting from when I sat down and pulled up the phone numbers.
Finally! I'm set now, right? No.
The panel downstairs to buzz people in my building is out of order. So, I receive a notice saying to pick up a package. However, because of Christmas and whatnot, it has it ticked off that I can't pick it up until Saturday. I go on Saturday to pick up the package, and am told that the package is not there, and won't be until Monday, so come back then. Late Monday afternoon I dutifully return to retrieve my package only to be told, yet again, that it isn't there! GAH!
Today I went back for the third time, and there it was. A package from Sears. Ohhhh yes. My #92.
They seriously bubblewrapped the hell out of it. They used one huge piece of bubble wrap and wound it round and around again, so that I'm carrying this huge bulging envelope that won't even fit into my bag!
Dear #92: I love you. And I know people say you stain, but when I removed the swatch of you from my hand after an hour of it sitting there, it came away clean. I just used standard waterproof eyemakeup remover... In any event, I'm glad you're here and I believe we'll be very good friends.
