Let me paint a picture of my last two days. The K10 is scheduled to be delivered today. Yesterday, #2 kid has a fever and cough so she's not going to school. It's easier for me to have the day off, so I'm home all day. I have about fifteen hours of the Daytona 24hr sportscar race in my Tivo, and I'm still working through this French countryside in my WWII computer game so I've got stuff to do. I check the UPS tracking site about 350 times. The box takes 12 hours to get from Cametta in New York to Philadelphia. Then it lands in South Carolina around dinner time. No change at bed-time... hmmm
Got up this morning and no change. the box is still in SC. Not good. I check the UPS site 300 more times. Lunchtime comes and I can either go have BBQ with Brian (a local BMW friend) or stay home in case the UPS guy comes. I risk it. The BBQ is good. After lunch and the box is still in SC. No way it's delivered today now and I have two important meetings tomorrow. The UPS guy surely won't leave $1200 boxes on my porch tomorrow will he? Woe is me. It gets worse. UPS guy turns up with the camera. Now it's HERE but I can't USE it because the battery needs charging. I'm going out to buy a card reader and pick up the kids. Maybe it's done when I get home... I miss the AA *ist D now. But just a little. Cory in hell, the good kind. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
