the_rckThe laptop needs to go back Fedex. Scott said he'd drop it off during his lunch hour, but it's still on the kitchen table. There are two Fedex stores I can get to by cab, but I'm worried that I can't carry the package. (I'm not sure of my status because I've only just gotten up and am still working on breakfast. I may be less wobbly after. Or not.) I really don't want to wait for Scott to send it back tomorrow because that adds another day to my time without a laptop.
There's no school today because it's an election day (school millage, possibly other things. I need to check and usually would have by now. The last six weeks have kind of driven that out of my head). Cordelia's is leaving around 10 a.m. to go bowling. If she wasn't, I'd ask her to help me with the package. I don't think, right now, that we could make the timing work. She's not yet up, and we'd need at least an hour and a half to get a cab, get there, send the package, and get home by bus.
I'm poking at the Fedex website and trying to figure out if there's a way to get them to pick the damned thing up and how much that might cost. If it's under $11, it would be cheaper than a cab, but damned if I can find it on their website. Everything I'm seeing is aimed at business customers with pre-existing accounts. I really don't have the wherewithal to make a phone call right now.
On the plus side, one of the buses back from either Fedex location stops right by the polling place. I'd only have to figure out getting home after voting (half an hour between buses and a distance walking home that I'd normally consider within my range but that isn't now).

Date: 2018-05-08 04:16 pm (UTC)I shouldn't need to fill out any forms at all.
The cab to the Fedex place will be $11 ($9 plus $2 tip). That's the only expense that I should be looking at.
