I am genuinely sad this happened · 2:24pm Oct 10th, 2020
I wub chocolate. If you don't, we can't be friends. You'll be tolerated, but there shall be no snuggling or bunny-hugging.
I like to order a bundle of my favourite sweets (as I posted in the second to last blog) every month or so. It's not a lot, but it keeps me happy and they last a bit. A part of that package is chocolate raisins, a change for a desired and very nostalgic childhood sweet I'm very fond of. So, I ordered it, the package arrived in three days or so, I got it, opened it, started with the white snowies and waited until I was done to move onto the chocolate raisins.
However, when I opened them and tried eating one, it wasn't a chocolate-coated raisin. It was instead a peanut. I like peanuts, don't get me wrong, but coated in chocolate, when I was expecting it to be a raisin, confused me at first then saddened me, as I was looking forward to it and expecting something else. SO, after contacting the seller, they did apologise and send the right one, which arrived the following day. I got two days ago.
Dad gave it to me as I was about to leave, and I was confused again because I wasn't expecting it so soon, but more so that the box was warm. I put it down on the garage work top as I was leaving, cut it open and my heart sank as the realisation sunk in that it was the raisins I really craved. But, because these things aren't labelled, it had been sitting on top of the microwave...and they had all melted into this now-curdled mess.
I think I felt myself cry on the inside and my dad thought it was funny at my reaction. I guess I did, too, but I was so disappointed! It was like being that one kid on Christmas who didn't get the bike they had their eye on. Of all the things that I wanted most, it had to be the raisins to get melted. I think the universe is out to get me.
But things are good now and my disappointment has been partially lifted since I as of this hour have received a large tub of chocolate raisins. I can now be an addict in peace. And then wonder why I can't get through the door frame.
I wanted to share this because...UGH, the crushing disappointment...my babies had morphed into a raisin brick. Meh. Well, if ya thought this was funny, good 'nuff for meh. Mmm-hmm.
