My QB arrived about 5 minutes ago. I went in to work very early so I could
run the jobs I absolutely must get done on Tuesdays (without making my
co-workers do them). Then I headed home as soon as I saw the "out for
delivery" notice on the UPS site.

About 10am HST I got a call from the UPS driver asking if I would be home
later. I said yes, except that between 11-2pm I needed to be away and the
manager of my condo would be in. He asked me to please make sure because the
box, while not heavy, was bulky. I asked when he thought he'd make it and he
said not till afternoon. Sigh.

Then he drove up. I could hear him joking with someone outside saying, "I
told him this afternoon." I immediately broke out the camera and snapped my
box being offloaded. It'll be part of a flickr album later.

He brought the box up to my apartment and I gave him a cold soda and told
him he was my hero for the day. Apparently I'm going to have more than one
hero though because, as you guys said, the bike is packed immaculately. And
unfortunately I'm going to have to leave it that way for a bit as I have to
dash out for my companies annual anniversary banquet. Folks with years of
service in multiples of five are being feted. I made ten years and they are
pretty insistent about showing up.

Luckily it'll be over around 1:30pm so I can ride home on my other single
speed (now my "rain bike") and start putting things together. There doesn't
appear to be a whole lot to do (thankfully), so I'll probably be able to
take it out for spin before dark.

I'd love to stay and play with it, but the sooner I get this luncheon over
with, the sooner I can play with my "anniversary present."

Aloha for now!

Bob
