    Holidays suck!

    Tracking shows my latest getsnus order just sitting at the post office all cold and lonely waiting to make that last 2 miles to my house...but no, it has to sit there since today is a holiday!

    Same reason why my order of frozen rats, mice, and chicks for the snakes won't get here till tomorrow either. Right now I could be playing with the dry ice that it's packaged in if it was here! :P

    Yes, dry ice is that amusing, hehe

      OMG, so happy someone else is as irritated as I was this morning. ONLY reason I got out of bed was to skip to my mailbox. i am waiting for two pipes really, really want. Sat there confused about why the mail wasn't here yet. took a few minutes before I realized it was &^%$# Veterans day.*


      * I really am grateful for the service that all you veterans did. Only pissed that the ail doesn't come on this day. But thank you for your service. :wink:

            One is a danish pipe, called a Bjarne pipe. This pipe is from an incredibly kind gentleman on smokers forums who is just giving it to me because am new and he knows I am limited in what funds I have. Not an uncommon occurrence on Smokers Forums and why I spend more and more of my time there)

            The other one is a IMP Lattice Meerschaum Pipe. My first meerschaum pipe.

              Now I wanna get a pipe. I have smoked pipes before, years ago. I probably won't though, as I just don't want to smoke(anything), and our house is smoke free, so I'd have to go outside to smoke it.

                See, that is the difference between us. I have always posted that I like smoking. I just didn't like being tied to cigarettes.

                I live alone, so can smoke here. But half my smoking is sitting outside reading at my local cafe.

                  Usually people are bitching about GetSnus using UPS .....
                  ( i know you really weren't bitchin' :wink: )

                  I guess we could go back to the old days when there was no tracking and we didn't know it was sitting in the post office 1/2 mile away.

                    My NicotineRush snuff order was placed mid day Monday. I bet this delays that one an extra day or do they ship UPS?

                        UPS would still be slower for me, even with the holiday.

                          I hate most holidays as well. I have an order that would have hit today. I like Veteran's day though. It's good to have things like the mail not show up to make us all think for a minute about what they did and continue to do for us.
