Huzzah!

Someone in a Tree  Jul 15 08

I just got an email from Dell telling me my computer shipped out on the 14th and should arrive on the 16th! Even if it's a day late, it will still arrive before I leave for my vacation.Oh, yeah. I'm leaving on vacation this Saturday. For long time readers, this is the annual family vacation with Mom, Dad, Sister and Nephews One and Two. This year we are going to the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia. We've been once before, about three years ago, so it won't be anything new, but should still be pleasant.In any case, I am totally excited about getting the new computer. I wasn't expecting it to arrive before next week. Full story...
