Argh. Where would a DNA sample go?

It an old southern expression. Sort of a cousin to “well, blow me down flat.”

Well, it is in just a regular envelope. There’s no way to tell from the outside that it’s holding the unrealistic hopes and dreams of a legion of fan girls. I suppose it went wherever missing mail goes via the USPS.

So sorry to read this. Couldn’t they have just called or emailed you instead of mailing a fricken letter?!!!

Can a new sample be mailed certified or something?
To the attention of a specific person looking for it?

Wait, if they didn’t get the sample, how’d they know to contact you that it was missing, or where to contact you?
.

I kind of want to do the whole thing over now. The pictures I sent to the JC are from two months ago when she was still looking very poor. My horse-owner ego wants a do-over with recent glamour shots!

I don’t blame you at all! I’d 100% do that.

You send one form to the JC with pictures and a reference number.

Another form to the lab with the DNA sample and the same reference number.

So I guess they have one but not the other.

Damn mail. All that anticipation… no results.

Perhaps mention to them that failure this time could result in an irate pack of Aunties descending on their offices.

We are kind of nuts aren’t we…
