Sorry, Ma'am, we are all out of giant squid, but we can send a squirrel to pee on your window screen
Seriously, I ordered a giant squid, but all I got was a gray squirrel. They often climb on the window screens, to the intense excitement of the cats. Sometimes they lick the screens. (No, I have no idea.) But this one peed on the screen. Saffron launched herself at it and it fled, scolding.
I think they got my order number transposed, or something, rather in the same way as we used to order hummus from Simon's Delivers and get chive and onion potato-topper glop instead, which nobody would eat, not even the non-vegans.
Now, Simon's would not take the potato-topper glop back because it was perishable, but they did, once the situation had been called to their attention, deliver the hummus. I wonder if the giant squid is on its way. I don't know if squirrels qualify as perishable while still able to pee, but I certainly am not going to go try to catch and return it.
Some days are just like that.
