Earlier this evening, I was contemplating food. I do that sometimes, especially when I am too lazy to actually make myself anything that requires more than 2 minutes of prep time.
"Wouldn't that be fun to order something and have it delivered?" I thought. "Like maybe pizza?"
But pizza is not all that healthy, and not all that cheap, and I'm not always in the mood for it, so I gave up thinking about food and got back to my homework.
A couple hours later, I heard a knock at my door.
"Did someone just knock on my door?" I wondered. This is not as stupid a thing to wonder as you might think, because my door is kind of out of the way, and people don't generally knock on it.
Then my doorbell rang.
"Oh, I guess they did."
I was wearing my pink pajama pants with little dogs on them, a Rutgers t-shirt (to help me get excited about my schoolwork, get it?), my green-and-blue flannel nightgown, and my giant fuzzy tiger slippers that Queen Tuffett gave me for Christmas. Yes, I answered the door dressed like that.
"Hi, did you order a pizza?"
A man stood on my doorstep, holding a big red pizza bag, and wearing a shirt that said Big Daddy's Pizza.
"No," I said, "I didn't order a pizza."
"This is (address)?" he asked.
"Yes, but this is (apartment). The other apartment is around the corner."
"They told me to come to this door."
"Oh. No, I didn't order a pizza."
"Ok."
He pulled out a phone and said thanks as I closed the door.
...
I should've asked him what kind of pizza it was. No, I should've just
said, "How much do I owe you?" and bought the pizza and eaten it. Too
bad I'm not that kind of adventurous person.
What a bizarre thing. It wouldn't be half so bizarre if I hadn't thought about it earlier, and even thought about how if someone did try to deliver a pizza here, they'd probably go to the wrong door first.
Weird.

Sad. Someone should have ordered pizza for you. Like us.
Dude, that is spooooky. (I totally would have bought the pizza though)
