The next morning, I woke up and made vegan sausages with a side of frozen potatoes. I sat down on the couch and browsed through all the different "South Park" episodes. As the episode started, I rushed upstairs and grabbed my glasses out of my drawer. As I started back down the stairs, I heard a knock on the door. I stopped midway down the stairs. All I could think was: "don't move", "don't make a sound", "who could that be??", "maybe mom lost her keys?"..." South Park is playing...", "they're going to hear the tv...", " I'm too cute to die"...
The incessant knocking stopped abruptly...then I heard something in my room. A loud bang...like something heavy fell into the floor. I didn't know whether to go up or down the stairs, but then I heard the mailbox and all my paranoid thoughts vanished. I walked down the rest of the stairs and looked out the window...nothing. I checked the front porch and...my package was there. 3 days early.
