We're not really a high risk area so I'm not too mad. However, the box it shipped in was the original manufacturer's box and so it was completely obvious what was inside so that would concern me a bit. Anyway, showing foresight, the UPS guy decided to hide the package...under our doormat.
At this point you may be jumping to a conclusion as to how the story ended. You might assume I, or Lani, stepped on said doormat, breaking the item.
You'd be wrong, but it was a close thing:

I found this amusing once I got home:
Granted, he did a pretty good job of keeping the identity of the item at first glance hidden... but... I thought it was kind of corny, considering our front office is open to packages, with a package center. That, and it looks like garbage. I left a bag of trash outside to take with me when I was going to run some errands the other Saturday, and we got a written notice about trash. Yet, homeboy across the way has sh*t everywhere. (Thus, my stubborn reaction to not sweep the front area if it's going to look sh*tty with his sh*t, anyway.)
