View Full Version : The Great Pumpkin....

So....like Linus....I find myself sitting in my own pumpkin patch awaiting a visit from the Great Pumpkin. With every passing hour, every incoming call, the anticipation builds. I know that somewhere between Chicago and Cincinnati, the Great Pumpkin is steadily making it's way towards it's new home. Going out to dinner didn't take my mind off it, watching a movie didn't take my mind off it, SHOPPING didn't take my mind off it....however will I sleep tonight?
Tic toc, tic toc, tic toc......it's Christmas Eve 1985 all over again.
OH, GREAT PUMPKIN, WHERE ARE YOU?!

Uggggg....it's 11AM and still no GP! WTH! When that driver gets here I'm gonna give him a piece of my mind. Where is that angry Craig smiley from FOMF when you need it?
Because I'm sooo retarded, I went to Best Buy last night and bought 6 new cd's to put in my new 6 disc changer...... the cd's are sitting here....all wrapped up....and it's DRIVING ME NUTS! I promised myself I wouldn't listen to them until I got the car...... I'm a glutton for punishment I guess
I'm hoping this doesn't turn out like the real Great Pumpkin :(

5PM and still no word from the driver and I keep trying to call his cell phone and it's off now.
:( What's a girl gotta do to get a car delivered around here? I'm gonna kick this guy square in the nuts (after I get my car of course).
I'm starting to think this stupid car might not even exist! RIDICULOUS!!!
Damnit to hell...there is only so much shopping I can do to entertain myself. Benny has banned me from Target (since I went "wild" there yesterday AND today)..now I'm reduced to shopping oldnavy.com.......
I'm gonna be freakin' broke by the time I get the stupid thing...but I'll have a pimp closet!
Ahhhhh.....I'll go back to staring out the window with a kung-foo grip on the celly...

:( Still no car. I keep trying the driver's cell phone and it's turned off. I talked to the guy at 11:30 today and he said he was leaving Detroit at 12:30 and would be here by 4.....that was that last time I talked to him, and the last time I was able to reach him.
The dealership opens at 8AM tomorrow and the salesman (who hired the shipping company) is gonna get a nasty phone call. 1. I STILL don't have my car 2. I have NO idea where it even is 3. I sat around the house ALL frickin weekend. The guy was supposed to show up at 6 yesterday, didn't call, didn't show..I had to call him at 7PM and then he tells me..."oh...not today, it'll be tomorrow." Dude didn't even call me today, I had to call him..he again tells me it will be here by 4PM. Then the bastard turns off his phone.
I'm soooooo pissed right now. Just to deal w/ this shit all weekend. We had huge plans this weekend w/ Calvalcade and it was our 6th anniversary of our first date. Every year we go to the same restaurant and go to the movies (just like our first date) and we didn't do it today because we were waiting on the car.
If I don't have my car by tomorrow around noon, I'm reporting it stolen. PERIOD. I'll give the dealer an opportunity to make this right.

$1 sez it never left MI until midnioght today.
DOT Timeout or Driver was watching ASSCAR.
When you posted he stated 3.5 hours to get to Cincy, I know it wasn't gonna get here.
250 miles to Taylor (south of D) from Fairfield is a solid 4 hours at sane speeds of 70 mph and 1-2 piss breaks. This is a car, not a hauler which should be limited to 55 mph.
Also, the truckers here know, Monday AM delivery. I'll bet it's sitting at the dealership right now :)
Sorry to make fun of your sitting all weekend, but it is kinda funny.......outside looking in :)
Hope your "Pumpkin" arrives in perfect shape, all the worry for nothing.
