I remember who Warren is now... he's the Purpose Driven Life guy, huh... I was confusing him with Bro Cloud.
My mistake :~)
~sip~
I'm sure he does :~)
For some reason, Dell's shipping and tracking info is always off recently. I suppose they just figure if they overestimate, folks will be happy that things didn't take *as* long, but it's irritating.
Heh...we had a system that came in a MONTH ago - in theory the shipping status page should have been updated with a tracking number and estimated delivery within a day or so of shipping. But it's said "In Transit to Local Carrier" for all that time...and it came in three days after the order.
Heh...I'm not sure if that works out as a compliment or not! ;-)
I was trying to remember (and had to look it up). There was an almost identical thread last year or so when Warren went to Rwanda.
Speaking of Nepal, a few days ago I mistyped www.freerepublic.com:

It's a conspiracy or something.
Fortunately for me, since Nana moved in wife parks around back (stairs are easier for Nana to negotiate). So, I was able to intercept a birthday present delivered by FedEx yesterday.
We aren't real?
~pinches self~
Heh...that may come in useful someday if the Bunny Cooker returns...
"What is REAL?" asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?"
"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."
"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.
"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."
oh *sob*!
*snif*
Tell the truth...ecurbh's cryin' too, ain't he...
I want you to know I always believed my stuffed animals had souls.
I'm sure you did.
Nah, that ain't cryin... it's just allergies. ;~)
uh huh...
grr....I'm trying to get greeting cards printed from a photo. I can't get the Kinkos one to preview without a border...on just three sides...and Shutterfly tells me I don't have the resolution right...even though I've tried to set it to their exact recommendations....but enough fooling with that now.
Oh c'mon! Nothing should make me sniffle before noon!
Mornin' everyone. :-)
In other news, family crisis averted.
We leave for thebeach three weeks from today. Nana had told us she was going to go to NC and stay until the family reunion on Labor Day. We had every indication that was what she ~wanted~ to do.
We didn't say anything, but that left us with four weeks of not knowing what to do with Luke during the day. We were looking at camps, etc.
So finally, after I'd been pushing the issue for two weeks, we asked Nana why she was going to NC. She said "I don't want to, but you won't be here." (we're only at thebeach for a week)
~sigh~
But, at least as it stands now, Jr. can stay here and work while we're at the beach (another problem solved), Sam doesn't have to go to the kennel (another $300 saved), Nana can stay here (and not be miserable for a month), and Luke can stay here (and save us $800 in camp fees).
Ringmaster Corin rides again.
