    "On FedEx vehicle for delivery"

    The Tiny Horse Rider Purty Bass is out for delivery and I am at work. Life can be cruel. At least I got something to look forward to tonight.

    How about being in Berlin, unable to check on financial situation when wanting to get another bass for cruelty?

    I'll talk to you when i get home.
    bovinehost: Yes, I do agree with that, but if there's nothing wrong then there's nothing wrong.
    Beth: I would compare Bongo to Tommy Lee Jones. Bad a$$ and just hot in a weird way...
    cheezewiz: They should take their lace thongs off and play bass.

    Delivery exception

    TUCSON, AZ

    Customer not available or business closed


    Looks like I get to make a field trip. Maybe he'll swing by again in the early evening.

    Hey Tom,
    When I had them put your address into the system, something wasn't completely jiving. Then the guy looked your address up on a couple of the map sites and it was completely valid. He said in that case that it shouldn't be a problem. I suspect it might have something to do with that but I don't know. If you give them a call they should let you know though. Let me know if I can be of anymore help.

    On second thought just looks like they wanted a signature, so nevermind.

    Things'll work out. Most likely, I'll make a trip to FedEx in the morning. I'm at work and the rental property I reside in doesn't have on-site management. It is all hoy-puloy like that.

    Did the cheque make it? Did you make it?

    Got the cheque and am finally home for the day. Working on about 2 hours of sleep right now. Let me tell you, Houston Hobby airport does not get a 4 star rating for a hotel.

    Paul,

    I called fedex. Arranged to have the bass delivered on Sat. when I will be home.

    I don't envy you in your travels. I've been firm about not traveling for the company so I don't have many scars to toughen me up. Hope you get some decent sleep.
