That would be me, to The Brown Truck o' Happiness, as in: awaiting its arrival. I knew exactly when... give or take 15 minutes... TBToH would arrive in Beautiful La Hacienda Trailer Park and the operators of said trucks rarely let me down. I was disappointed on occasion, but that was always when my Usual Driver was on vacation. I've yet to figger out what the schedule is here in the new neighborhood, but I suppose that will come with time.
Oh. We're waiting on a spiffy new external hard drive, a device with two and a half times the capacity of the old external drive. Which capacity is needed, and all that. Merry Christmas to me.
Update, four minutes later: Well, shit.
I guess we'll go run our errands now.
Our Brown Truck guys are all FUBAR'd by extra holiday deliveries. Nothing seems to come quite when it is expected. Happens every year about this time.
ReplyDeleteI went and checked status after reading your comment... results in my update. We're in the same boat.
ReplyDeleteThe wx here's similar to yours in that the winds are blowin'
ReplyDeleteit's outta the NNE @ about 24 with gusts to 32
OTH it is a tad warmer, though not quite shirtsleeve
A couple hours ago, I tried to post a long comment about a winter delivery experience with F***Ex. Apparently it disappeared, and I'm too lazy to do it over.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, they'll be blaming the recent blizzard for the delayed delivery, I'm sure.
Ivan: "Warm" isn't in our vocabulary for the next few days.
ReplyDeleteRed: I also got a note from Amazon sayin' "weather conditions" were responsible for the delay. I believe 'em, coz I read the NM State Police closed parts of I-40 in between ABQ and me for quite a while during the recent storm.
Don't you love having those updates, though, so you can get on with life? Man, the weather God's have been whoopin' up on y'all lately!
