Kirsten, is there something you forgot to tell me?

OK, that was weird.

I just had someone ring the doorbell. Expecting the usual attempt to sell me strawberries/pirated DVDs/tamales, I answered. The guy outside was Asian, spoke very poor English, and seemed convinced that our apartment was up for rent because we were moving. He actually tried to push in saying "I just look at rooms, OK?" Hell no!

After much confusion, I think I convinced him that no, we were not vacating the place at the end of next week (one look at the lack of boxes, full bookshelves and masses of CDs and DVDs on the entertainment shelf should have been a good clue) and he really needed to confirm that he was at the right place.

The only reason I'm even answering the door is Thousand Suns shipped a few days ago, so it might get here today.

Betcha there was a typo in the address he copied.

The number matched, but I'm willing to bet he meant to be on Almaden Expressway, not Almaden Road
