Someone stole our chocolate

[dorchadas]

In furtherance of Darker than Black, because I really like chocolate, and also because they sent me a promotion for a free month, I signed up for a subscription delivery from Raaka Chocolate where they deliver three bars a month. I figure I can do at least one of those each month for Darker than Black, or save them up, or whatever. Or just eat them. Chocolate is good.

Except some asshole stole it. I'm pretty sure that it was one of our neighbors, because the package was sitting open on the inside stairs when I got home from work. It wasn't inside a bag and didn't have a slip like it had been damaged in transit, and the non-chocolate parts--the cacao bean samples and the informational leaflets--were still inside. So someone probably saw it said "chocolate" on the address label, ripped it open, stole the chocolate, and put it back.

I've already followed up with the post office, our property manager, and Raaka. Raaka agreed to resend another box of samples, which is pretty generous since we're still in the free month and haven't actually paid them yet. The post office is looking into it, and I haven't heard back from the property manager.

Hopefully it's a one-time thing and doesn't happen again. We'll know when the second package arrives.

I once had someone steal a package of Juzo Itami movies that I had ordered for a final project in grad school. I was like, I hope you like humorous examinations of Japanese funeral customs and tax systems.

If nothing else, maybe some good came from evil and they ended up with an appreciation for Japanese satire.
