OK, so it’s here.  Joey just called to say that he tracked it and it was in Dallas this morning…but the USPS is holding it hostage.  Joey tried to get the shipper to change the shipping address to go to DTS instead of our home, and the guy wouldn’t do it.  SO, the lappy is going to our house.

And it has to be signed for.

Lame.

This means I probably won’t get it until the weekend, unless I go to the post office over lunch, which sounds like a headache.  But I want my lappy, so I might make sacrifices.

I’m currently trying to select a bag and corresponding neoprene case for it.  Some of you know how accident prone I am…it’s always best to be too careful.

Anyway, the options are:

This is the bag I want.  Yes, it’s the exact same one that Sister has.  Yes, I am a copycat.  No, I don’t care.  It’s cool and so is she, so I have no problem with plagiarizing her.

Now, InCase makes about three different colors of neoprene cases that fit my new lappy.  One’s black (lame) and the other two are olive green and magenta.  I’m kind of leaning towards the magenta, but I’m not sure if I’d feel like I got pink-attacked when I looked at it.  And there is a sort of olivey spot in the messenger bag…

Anyway, if I had my own genie, one of my three wishes would be that my new lappy would be sitting safely on my doorstep when I got home tonight.  That way Joey could get it all set up for me…he’s going to stupid Green Bay tomorrow and I need something to keep me occupied while he’s gone!  (And my unicycle isn’t going to cut the mustard for three whole evenings by myself; I’d be totally black and blue.
