Big but
I’m back at my apartment for a day and a half to try and get some things done before school, BUT I have four tutoring lessons tomorrow. Maybe I’ll come back after my pre-op appointment on Monday and stay here another day. Blah, so much driving back and forth across town.
My cable modem’s blinky lights told me it was working, when in fact it was not, BUT restarting everything fixed it.
I ordered pizza tonight, BUT it was thin crust, AND I passed up both Starbucks and Taco Bell, thank god.
The lightbulb in my bedroom lamp burned out a minute ago, BUT I actually had a replacement bulb in my apartment. THREE. AND they were the RIGHT KIND. AND they were in the first place I looked. I don’t even know who I am anymore.
Ten minutes ago I got an email from Old Navy saying my fifty bucks’ worth of super-clearance clothes just shipped, BUT they’re headed for my old apartment BECAUSE I am a moron. It’s not a federal offense to stake out someone’s apartment and snatch a package from their doorstep if it has my name on it, is it?

No, I can’t imagine it is a federal crime, BUT it might be considered poor form if you fail to offer the new tenants some BUTter cookies to BUTtress your argument in favor of BUTting into their lives and possibly even pushing their BUTtons as regards being the subjects of a parcel-pilfering stake-out. Or something.

1.) IF it is US Mail, I would hope you forwarded mail. BUT, it might be out of date… contact the new resident?
2.) IF it is another carrier, ask them to hold it at the depot, you’ll come get it (BUT they do keep annoying hours) or ask if they can redirect it. You might have to have GAP change it… UPS *Can* do this, but they tend to be a pain about it.
