Well... The wife and I got home from work yesterday and on the answering machine were 5 new messages. My wife had been recently sending out resumes to find a job, so naturally I expected them to be calls to set up interviews and perhaps maybe a message from a family member. Well the first two were indeed, people wanting Chris to go in for interviews (she actually started a new position on Monday), so I figured the rest would also be messages for her.

To my surprise the 3rd message was from the The Highland Scottish Gift Shoppe. My first assumption was that the tartan garter I ordered for my sister for her wedding came in, but no! My 16oz. 8 yard ancient Grant Hunting kilt was in! It was already 4:50pm and they close at 5pm so I wouldn't have been able to make it in time so I figured "tomorrow." Argh!

The 4th message was also from them asking that I call them to let them know when I would be coming in to pick it up because on Wednesday afternoon and Thursday, there were going to be short-staffed and the those experienced in doing the fittings wouldn't be in. They would prefer that I come in when someone with the experience was there, which I totally understand, but Argh!.

So that leaves me Friday afternoon if I can get it off work; shouldn't be a problem. I wasn't really jonesing at all because I knew I would eventually get it. But now that it's arrived and I won't be able to get it until Friday. It's going to be hard to concentrate on anything until then.

I'll be sure to post pictures when I get some taken. Won't be until next week sometime since I'm heading out of town for my cousin's wedding this weekend. Just thought I'd share my excitement.
