    I'm going into jonesing overload!

    Here is the problem-

    I ordered a wool Leatherneck from SWK sunday night. Here it is Tuesday around 2:00 p.m. and I still don't have it in my hands!!!

    Aarrrggghhhh!

    I'm into overload!! Where's that mail lady?? Do I need to walk up to the corner and see if she's just late or something?

    I think I'll just go over here and sit quietly in the corner before I lose it.

    I would drink more to help you think about something else, but that's just me. Make sure to take some pics once you get it to show off. Slainte!

    I wonder if Jerry's transporter is on the fritz now that he is offerring the USMC tartan?

    Grab another kilt, press it to your face, and breathe deeply...

    Oh, wait - you're waiting on a Leatherneck? Hmmm...

    Go outside and select a location for your crew-served weapons, then start digging the fighting positions. (It won't make your kilt arrive any more quickly, but you'll be able to fight the feeling more effectively!)

    Drat!

    I guess that Jerry's transporter is on the fritz.

    The mail lady didn't care for my watching her from my entrenched position between the rose bushes. I'm sure she spotted me digging it. It was good, too. The agapanthas pretty much hid me from my foxhole position.

    The SO says I gotta fill the hole in before someone falls into it and hurts themselves.

    Offer to string triple-strand concertina (as a safety measure, of course)!

    I have just begun to Jones. At least your kilt will be here soon My first Kilt will not be done until the end of July. It will be coming from Scotland, and I live in Utah. Well, that's what happens when your clan has a rare tartan, and you pick a tank as your first kilt.

    Update!

    It's here!

    The mail lady said that this box materialized in her postal van several blocks from my house. She delivered it with a confused look on her face. I guess Jerry's transporter aim was slightly off or something.

    As Steve Irwin would have said-

    "Crikey! She's a beut!" I will do some pics and a review as soon as I remove 2 rows of basting stitches.

    BTW, A hanger came with the deal. What a guy-free hanger with your kilt!
