YES! Woohoo!!!
Yes! Woohoo!!! Mark the time, 6:31pm! Finally! After 25 long days of waiting, I got my chips! I was watching The Grudge(which was really good, not to mention scary!) when my buddy dropped my package off. As much as I bitched and complained recently, he's really been great delivering my packages. I made him work around Christmas with my packages arriving from 21st through the 25th and some thereafter. I've never had a problem before the 7th and hopefully today starts a streak that lasts for a long long time with no problems. Tom from UPS must have been waiting by the pute cause he called me at 6:33pm. Too bad I missed his call though cause I was too busy opening the package. As you can see, it's nice and brand new. Steve from Best Bet Limited even threw in a pack of dies. The 2 decks of cards were in great condition as well. It's a huge sigh of relief that's for sure. Tom said he was going to call me in the morning to see what else they can do to keep me as a good customer...we'll see what that means tomorrow. I called him and left a message so I guess I'll talk to him in the morning.
It feels good that they're actually making an effort. It's some sort of vindication that all my efforts and frustrations weren't for naught. It's amazing how a few simple phone calls makes a huge difference.
I met a friend last night. She watches about the same amount of TV that I do---too much! *lol* She and I got into a discussion about relationships. She just broke up with someone after 3 years. I on the other hand remain single partly by choice and partly by chance. Interesting topic, pretty serious between 2 people who barely knew each other 24 hours.
Watching House on Fox. That is such a great show. It's the episode about a trumpet player who had a DNR(Do Not Resucitate) and Dr.House saved him anyways. Great episode. AOL and AIM are both not working. IMs and Buddy Lists are dead in the water. How rude to disrupt millions of convos!
Hot Dog! I got my Poker Chips! I see UPS stock going up tomorrow. They're on the path to forgiveness, but not too fast...we'll see what they tell me tomorrow.
