What the hell did you put in my mailbox? (One of six.)
When I saw the package sticking out of the mailbox, I groaned aloud. I had been traveling for the past week on business; I was tired, sore, and desperate for a good night's sleep. It looked like I wasn't going to get it. Work had obviously caught up with...
