What am I supposed to do to kill the time before my ts arrive today? What does everyone else do instead of just watching out the window?

aww lol

I will usually prepare the enclosure, re-arrange it, prepare a place to transfer. Do further research on the species. Change the cat litter, look at other T's.

Take a newspaper into the bathroom.

Or, if you're like most of the world, you'd be at work!

If I'm home and expecting a delivery there, I wait anxiously while watching TV or playing on the computer.

If I'm at work and expecting a delivery at home, I do what I do at work and go home during my lunch break to make sure everything arrived safe and sound.

If I'm at work and expecting the delivery there, I check with the receptionist every few minutes to see if my package has arrived. Then I show off my new toys when it finally does. :cool:

Is it just me or does anyone else have to hold back the smirk when the thought "if she only knew what's in the package she's holding" goes through your mind? Maybe it's just a S. calceatum thing...

one time last year when I was getting a package of a couple of T's, my brother slipped up and said something along the lines "there is a tarantula in there" the mailman looked at me with a scared look on his face. He made me sign for the package so fast and bolted, I dont think I've ever seen that guy deliver a package in my neighborhood again.{D

Watch a movie, yo.

Netflix online has saved me from insanity many a time while waiting for T's.

I had a tracking number that said delivery by 10.30 am. That was the nite I got the tracking number. Next morning I checked it and it said on the van- out for delivery! I was like 'Oh boy any minute now!" 10.30 am came and no sign of the truck. Then it was noon, then 2pm. By 5 pm I was getting really impatient. A couple of minutes before 7pm and I gave up and wrote the dealer an email letting them know the delivery guy screwed up. 7.04 pm the guy came and left it in my garage. I was happy to receive my T's but pissed that I wasted the whole day waiting for them cause I paid for priority overnight. Fortunately the T's were alright. For those waiting for their T's- I hope they come soon.

Well, the first time Iordered online, I spent all day rearranging all the cages. I gorssly underestimated the size and had to go and get some bigger enclosures. LOL Now everytime I order, I get enclosures for a T twice as big as listed.
