Returns
Returning stuff to Amazon that doesn’t fit or you just plain don’t like is easy. Just print out the QR code or have it on your smart phone and take the ugly dress to a place like a UPS Store to return it. No more having to package up the dress, print out return documentation, print out and stick on a mailing label and then send it back via USPS or UPS.
I just discovered that easy returns are also available from other sellers. I bought a sweater dress from Venus and it was too big, so when I began the return process, I found that Venus offers a similar return service as Amazon. Just get the QR code and take the dress to a place like a UPS Store. And voila!
T-Week
This week is Transweek. Formerly known as Fantasia Fair, I had no idea that it was this week until JJ asked me and I looked it up.
I attended the “Fair” four times. Last time was 10 years ago. I always had a good time. Each visit was a unique and memorable experience. Read my book to read all about my four Fair trips.
The only negatives about the Fair was the weather and the civilians.
The weather can be all over the place in late October in this neck of the woods and since the Fair has stuff going on all over Provincetown, you have to do a lot of hoofing to get around in whatever Mother Nature has to offer. (I’ll never forget running down Commercial Street wearing 4-inch stilettos in a thunderstorm!)
The local civilians are used to us and don’t give a damn, but the civilians tourists gawk and even point at us. But I found a surefire way to disarm them. One time, a group of my girl friends had reservations to dine at Lobster Pot. When we entered the dining room, some folks at a nearby table got all excited and began gawking and pointing. In response, I smiled and waved at them and that shut them down immediately.
And so it goes!

ReplyDeleteindeed! LOL
DeleteStana, did you have the liver? 😁
ReplyDeleteNo. I never eat lobster and if I recall, I had crab cakes.
DeleteStana, I've followed your posts here for quite a while now and thought your view of P-Town was interesting. I've never officially attended Fantasia Fair as it used to be called, but did drive out there more than once during the event in the years I lived in MA. I certainly did spot the CDs while walking around. Can't say I noticed anybody making a particular second-take about it though. JJ
ReplyDeleteI assure you that I am speaking the truth. Just read what Diana overheard yesterday at T-Week: https://dianacorner.blogspot.com/2024/10/day-3-transweek.html
DeleteThe weather has been excellent at Transweek (Formally know as Fantasia Fair). It is the Fiftieth Anniversary and there are so many attendees from the past. Vanessa Foster, Dennise Norris, Mariette Pathy Allen, Ariadne Kane, Dallas Denny, and Miqqi Gilbert. Plus... Jamison Green and Shannon Minter, Shannon is the recipient of this year's Pioneer Award.
ReplyDeleteIt's mini-skirt weather here, too! It was in the mid-80s yesterday. Have fun at T-Week!
DeleteI'm loving all of the various Casa Stana mastheads! I can't wait to visit😍
