Does anyone else get antsy knowing a fresh shipment of delicious leaves got to the house while they were at work?
There are certain advantages to late shifts. I have the daytime to get what I need to get accomplished, I get a modest differential for the shift, I work ten hour days so I only have to go to work four times a week.
But getting things delivered is a pain in the arse. The UPS store and post office actually down the street from me so depending on the day, or route,or other random things, I'm either first on the route or last, every time. This means I either get woken up in the middle of my night with deliveries, that need signed for or they show right after I leave for work. So I looked at the tracking list today before leaving for work at four in the afternoon. UPS shows my latest P&C baccy order as out for delivery, I slept till noon so I'm obviously not at the beginning of the route for them today. OOh and one of my ebay pipes should be coming in the mail today. Nope end of the mail trucks route too. Fortunately my girlfriends at the house today. Nobody made it before I left. I'm getting on the interstate and get a text, then five minutes later I get another. I pull into work check my phone and sure enough ten minutes after I left for work my girl signed for a big ass box from UPS and then before she even got her coffee refilled the mailman was there with another. Now I'm sitting at work, bored, and thinking how nice a bowl of Sutliff NO 5 would be for the trip home, if I'd have just had some to toss in my pouch before I left for work today...but now that lb of baccy is in a box on the living room floor. I mean the rest I was okay with being a bit late, they are mainly going into the cellar as I allready have open cans in the rotation, but I ran out of sutliff...
Which reminds me, thanks guys I would never have tried something in a container that looked like that unless I got it for free. But since it was the free sample from atladis that you guys clued me into...well it's a new favorite.
