The unique torture of waiting for a delivery truck.
Waiting for Delivery Blues (cue harmonica)
“Can you drag that big cooler
Up the stairs?”
With a broken toe
I do not dare.
New refrigerator's coming
But nobody cares
To say when the truck arrives.
Trying not to swear.
If I wait all day
For the delivery truck.
Frozen food melting?
Guess I’m out of luck.
For two long years
Ice and water poured down.
Ruining my food
“Mister Fix-It” is a clown.
He tried four times
Borrowing my tool
To fix the freezer.
Didn’t work. He’s a fool.
Now I’m getting OCD
Cleaned refrigerator top.
What’s wrong with me?
I need to stop.
"What's for lunch?" I wonder.
Refrigerator is clear.
If I leave for a second
"Tried to deliver" will appear!
Can you relate to this?

4:30 p.m. The delivery truck finally arrived.
"It takes 4 to 6 hours for the refrigerator to cool down," the delivery man said. "It was in the hot truck all day."

My phone rings when I'm on the toilet. Never fails.
@LiterateHiker That doesn't happen now that my phone is in my pocket. Now it only rings when it is on the charger, in the other room. But it doesn't matter, because it is always a robo call.
Without a broken toe... I am relating right about now... prozac in the mail... also a gift for my son. I hear you loud and clear Sister. It is a Blues alright!!!!

Love your funny reply! Glad you saw the humor.
Hope Prozac arrives before the delivery truck.
@LiterateHiker Get Well Soon... I am sure New Hiking Trails awaits You!!!
Hysterical!
But, no... can't relate. I schedule deliveries with Lowes, or any furniture/appliance store. More commonly, Amazon keeps me updated as to date/time & where my package is on the delivery route. You're living in the Dark (information) ages ma'am.
