The Waiting

Yup, it’s the hardest part. I’ve suffered through my last camera-less weekend at the golf course (he even suckered me into going twice on Sunday), and the PowerShot is making progress. Slow progress, but progress. The order processed Friday evening, shipped yesterday, and according to the UPS website, made it to Nashville as of about 0330h this morning. In a perfect world, that would mean I’d get it today (Nashville isn’t all that far from here), but we don’t live in a perfect world, so I’m thinking tomorrow is more likely. Oh–update! I just checked again and it scanned in at Louisville at 0714h. I know they’ll take some ridiculous, circuitous route and it’ll have to go through St. Louis or Indianapolis even though I’m closer to Louisville than both of those places, but at least I can track it and know it’s on the way. Yes, I’m pathetic and I need a life, and that’s just fine with me. I want my damned camera! 🙂

    BAHAHAHAHAHA! Gawd, that’s funny. I love my tracking number, too, but it’s too late to savour because I’ve already torn it limb from limb.

    My camera is in Indianapolis now. In 2.5h, I could drive over there and say, “Mine. Gimme,” but they wouldn’t even if I did ’cause that’d fuck up their tracking, and you just don’t mess with tracking. 🙂

    P.S. I hung around and read some more bits and pieces on that blog. WTF is wrong with this country? Why do we hate gay people so much? Well, not me–I don’t give a rat’s arse which way someone swings–but the religious right surely does. Even if I were the religious sort, isn’t it still supposed to be “love thy neighbor” and “judge not, lest ye be judged”? Why is our country so against gay marriage? Why is it any of their business if Joe wants to marry Francis instead of Frances? If Francis doesn’t happen to be your boyfriend or your husband, who gives a fuck? All I can do is shake my head. Being gay isn’t like being an alcoholic or a junkie, it’s like having blue eyes or being tall. It isn’t something you do, it just is.

    I don’t know. I’ve tried and failed to understand the religious mindset behind the hating gays attitude. The closest I’ve gotten is that maybe they’re really afraid of people who are different than they are. That might cover the non-religious people who are afraid of gays, too. It seems so simplistic, though.
