waiting for your dentist to complete a root canal

or...

If it takes less than 4 weeks I am very happy.

Why do I get excited when it stops in front of my house?

probably the same reason I get excited when I see a big box sitting on my door step when I get home... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

It's like a little mini Christmas trying to figure out which package arrive this time!

I came home to 2 large boxes on Monday. 1 was the seat foam I ordered through Tony. The other was a box full of sound insulating materials. I think I ended up with enough firewall batting to completely over my car with...

I can't wait to put it all in the car now /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

Waiting fer parts is like waiting fer....
....The wrath from the wife if she gets home before I have a chance to hide the boxes.

/bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/iagree.gif

and she's home more than I am.... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/nopity.gif

But she's still believing my story that old car parts are cheaper than new ones.... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/devilgrin.gif

Shoot, mine knows what they cost. She has always taken care of the money in case something happened to me.

She always says your Christmas packages arrived unless I am in the garage and catch the package on the way in.

Am just about finished with receiving packages on a regular basis. Heck I have replaced the whold car but for a couple of items. However, there are always things to improve. Yep that's what I'll tell her, I'm improving things.

Waiting for packages is like waiting for the final bell on the final day of school.....Will it ever ring so the fun can begin?

Yeah? I'd wanna die, although it happens. It
happens, but it just kills me!

BAZ: IMHO, you've won this round of: Waiting fer parts
discussion on the forum. Wow, your like the guy with
a problem, you know, like hide the booze; hide the...
you name a vice....hide the boxes.

What scares me most is I anticipate the day will come all
too soon when I hear the words: Oh, no, you're not gonna
order any more parts for that car this month, anyway -- and
I'll be right there -- ahiding boxes fer sure!
All in jest, man.

Re: Waiting fer parts is like waiting fer [fill it

waiting for parts is like waiting for: the ice cream man, the cook to take your pizza out of the oven, the first time to kiss your first girlfriend (and no i wont be politically correct about it!), your first pay check, the mail to bring your first drivers license, results of any test, the removal of bandages after eye surgery, your wife to give birth, the catching of your first fish, your first hole in one, cable t.v. man, a 100 car train to go past. and then ya gets the wrong stuff! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/whistle.gif

Re: Waiting fer parts is like waiting fer [fill it

These posts just keep getting better and better.

I can identify...

And then, it was the wrong part -- or how about: Did
you just order one visor; or did you mean one set of visors?

Ohhhhh, welllll, that's out of stock right now, but the
left side will be on back order. About three more weeks.

About three more weeks.

Just long enough in the future for them to forget you'd ordered some.... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cry.gif /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wall.gif /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/hammer.gif
