    Talking House arrest... again

    Don't you just hate tracking your UPS package and see your new BlueDawn LE is at the terminal at 1:30pm but they won't attempt to deliver till the next day!


    Plus the UPS guy messes with me on purpose; he could start his route at my house first, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! He rides around the neighborhood, goes by my house 3 or 4 times and then waits till I have to go get my kid from school THEN he shows up! It happens every time!!!




    …. Sorry for the rant, but I was up late last night.




    BlueDawn baby!!!!

    Patience, young grasshopper!

    It will all be over soon.

    And if rumor is true, I'll have mine soon as well!

    Fingers crossed!

    Yeah, same here. The UPS Hub is about 1 mile down the road from me. But they don't deliver stuff to me until the end of the day as they come back on their return route to the Hub.

    Now that just sucks, I could be one of their first deliveries, but NOOOOOOOOO!!!

    I feel yer pain Amigo.

    Yeah, UPS and the USPS deliver late at my house. Sometimes I don't get my mail until after 7 or 8 P.M.

    The UPS guy came around 12:30pm this time and I praised him royally, I fixed him a sandwich and changed the battery in his watch, loaned him 20 bucks and gave him some stock tips. I told him if he put me first on his route I’d give him a puppy and one of my wife’s St. John’s suits.

    And they say I’m bad with people…huh!

    Chuck the UPS guy may have been driving the route backwards all this time over being left handed.

    Well the St John stuff is extremely expensive; I figured he could hock it. My wife is into the St John stuff now; I mean one suit cost more than my entire wardrobe. Ok maybe that’s a bad comparison since my wardrobe consist mostly of free t-shirts and worn out underwear. Let me put it another way… one St John suit = at least 2 EBMM basses!
