Return to Sender

On November 6 I mailed a package to my friend Shannon with some costume pieces she had generously let me borrow. I sent it to her studio, thinking nothing of it, and a few days later I texted to ask if it had arrived. She told me they don’t receive deliveries there, which was news to me. I checked the tracking and it said “attempted delivery, will try again tomorrow,” and then… nothing. No updates. No movement. After thirty minutes on the phone with USPS I got the same answer over and over again. It wasn’t being returned. It wasn’t lost. It was just… nothing. Then yesterday, almost two months later, the package showed up back at my door like a ghost returning to haunt me. No explanation. No apology. Just proof that sometimes things disappear for a while and then randomly come back when you’ve already accepted the mystery.
