Ugh, feel like I'm 12 again
This is my first ever pre-order and waiting for Friday to arrive I feel like I'm 12 again chasing the UPS truck down the road hoping it will stop at my house and deliver those magic cards shipped out of Glen Head NY. I think the UPS driver in my hood was a little scared of me.

Indeed it's a good thing. I love how the leaflets...I mean, Road to Release articles just drive the desire for that UPS truck to stop at our house. I don't know about anyone else, but I will probably be up at 4am local time Friday waiting for the email to download OOTP 15. Maybe, David, we should find a neutral spot to meet and wait for the release notices over coffee and Egg McMuffins!!

That's what I did, took off work!
If there is Madden-oliday there needs to be an OOTP-oliday too. The only question, do I start out trying to fix my slumping Washington Nationals. |

I have a vivid childhood memory of desperately waiting for the UPS guy to deliver my desperately awaited copy of Might & Magic II. Remember the dark ages when you couldn't even track your package, and had no idea when it might arrive? That was an exquisite form of anxiety ...and I'll take Steam any day of the week over it now. |

My company's president is catholic so I have a paid holiday Friday. A nice round of golf in the morning and OOTP15 in the afternoon. Just can't beat it.

Or going to one of those faith-based institutions of higher learning as we have no class on Holy Friday / OOTP Friday.

Yeah, or Lancaster, PA. Every year the same wait, the same anticipation and when you opened the box that beautiful odor of freshly printed cards.
One year my mom hid the box from me for about a week. I almost never forgave her, God rest her soul. She never did it again, God bless her. |
