Had one heck of a headache getting it from UPS, involving an hour wait at the pick-up facility, involving phrases such as "we're not really sure where you package is right now," and "we've located your package, and it's on a truck that hasn't returned to the facility yet [at 9:10 pm]," and "when they say you should pick up your package between 8:00 pm and 9:00 pm, what they really mean is that you'll be here from 8 to 9... and then some." Who-boy. It was fun, I tell ya.

Well, I'm actually a Nikon girl myself. But new cameras are always fun!

Grrr at UPS. I always have the hardest time with packages. Mine get delivered to the wrong address or lost in transit. Or driven from Ontario to Laguna Niguel, then to Cerritos, then to Lake Forest, then to Long Beach, back to Laguna Niguel and then finally to my front door in Irvine - I don't want to think of how many times that package was 5 minutes away from me before it was actually delivered.
