UPS is my best friend

All I got left is a stupid brake disc coming today. I better order more stuff before I start jonesing:jittery:
 
I just got Emails this morning that 3 different sites have shipped my orders. Ooh, ooh.:celebrate:
I'd like them to arrive on Monday, Tuesday and the last one on Wednesday.
Unfortunately, the way it usually works is that there will be NOTHING on Monday:jittery:, and all 3 get here Tuesday.
I need small fixes, not an overdose.
 
Since we're sharing... I had to go retrieve a mis-shipped package from down the street this morning. Racer eluded to this above. So that's my annoying positive point for the day. Unfortunately, the HPI Formula Ten that was scheduled for today has been backed up until Tuesday. Boo! Probably weather related, understandable.

I didn't grab the mail yesterday. It's probably in the box, if not then today.

When I lived in New York, I lived across the street from a UPS driver with the same last name as mine. Unfortunately, that area was not his route, but he got a LOT of packages with parts for his dragster, so routinely they just looked at the name and street without checking the house number.
Without fail, every time I got a package, he would get home and hand carry it across the street to me.
 
This has been a very expensive month for me, but I still keep my RC fix going. Got new windows 2 weeks ago, so that led to new curtains, and that led to new carpeting. That led to a new kitchen floor. Please stop me before I paint. I need more time to build when my parts come in.

C'mon Brown, don't let me down.

WOW, that is some cash right there, I feel for you. I have no upkeep costs for housing since I live in an apartment. Maybe I'll buy a house someday, if I ever decide where I want to settle down.
 
The only thing I didn't pay for were the windows, since this is also an apartment. Having been a homeowner for 20 years, updates are something I enjoy doing.
Well, I'm now waiting on A-Main also. :whhooo:
This week I'll have 3 gifts from USPS, and William, my best buddy UPS guy will be here twice.
All the new R/C parts will take my mind off the rest of the cash outlay.
As long as I don't drip molten solder on the new carpet, I'll be fine. :)

By the way, HPIguy, where in the Great Smokies are you? I can see them out my window.

USPS brought me a present from A-Main a day earlier than I expected it!!!!!! I got the Novack Mongoose 17.5 for my Mini Rock Crawler in! Hooray!!!!
 
sweet. . .oh i ordered more stuff from tower last night, nothing serious, but i had to get some different glow plugs for that engine, it requires OS #10 A5, which is a cold plug for an airplane. . .its kinda weird. . .and i also ordered a motor saver air filter kit
 
Congrats on the new stuff.

Brown is delivering a new charger for me today.

I can't count how many times I have come home to a package on the porch and I immediately grab it and head to the workshop to open it up. Keep in mind this is before I ever set foot in the house to let the wife and kids know I am home. LOL

Let's not forget our other friend Blue. Blue likes to leave small packages in the mailbox and sometimes larger packages on the porch.
 
well how about when blue puts a package in the mail box from the back and its too big for it to come out the front, (i live in a trailer court so we have a mailbox area at the front of the trailer court) and you have to bend, fold, and force the package out of the box
 
Oh yes.

I occasionally have to spend a few moments cussing at Blue when he forces a box into my mailbox that he shouldn't have. That rolled edge around the mailbox opening can be a bitch. LOL
 
oh dear god yes. . .and it can cut the :dancingpoop: out of your hands if your not careful
 
I am positive Blue laughs as he drives away after doing the box stuff.
 
Blue = USPS

In regards to my new sig and avatar....I have been a sAints fan all my life. LMAO
