According to Mr. Post Office, my DSL modem did leave the suburbs warehouse this morning, came to my place, knocked the door, got all disappointed that I didn’t answer, and decided to go back to the suburbs rather than wait at the counter right by the street.

Now I have to wonder — do I put a “Knock. Hard. Hammer at the door, even.” Post-It on my door in case it comes back tomorrow, or are the delivery guys just driving around Paris, never bothering to climb any stairs, and I’d look like a naive, provincial doofus if I did that?
