DROID UPDATE

No, I am not in possession of the DROID INCREDIBLE yet.

But I do have some... disconcerting news. (What does disconcerting mean?)

Deno's new officemate received his Droid yesterday, the 18th. He ordered the Droid on May 29th, a Saturday. It was mailed to him on Wednesday, the 16th.

I ordered my Droid one week after said officemate, on Saturday the 5th. I was told I would need to wait "two and a half weeks" (whatever that means). I am EXPECTING the Droid on Wednesday, the 23rd. HOWEVER, I am suspect to believe that they will only be shipping the Droid on said date. And hopefully, as per Mr. Officemate, I will be receiving it Friday, the 25th.

Now we all know I'm the epitome of patience, and so, I am changing my DATE OF EXPECTATION to Friday, the 25th (although, of course, I will be frantically checking my email beginning Tuesday to see if a package arrived for me at the University of Maryland. I might even stop in after work at the Leonardtown Community Center to make sure they didn't just "forget to email me." Then I will make them check again. Then I will eye them suspiciously and tell them, "You don't understand... I'm expecting the Droid." Then I will wink. They will look left, then right, and wink back. It is at that point they will say it hasn't arrived yet. I will yell, "G F D IT" and slam my fist on the counter. We will both nod at each other and I will leave. Repeat).

Long story short, "four" to "six" "days"...

  1. I tried to tell Deno not to tell you! But alas, it was too late. I knew you would obsess over it, loosing any semblance of humanity and go on a killing spreee, if you found out someone just got theirs. Oh well, I tried.
