This is a little premature, since I'm going to have to post another one tonight detailing the contents of my latest box, but ...

There is nothing to make even the most painful of days (which I seem to be having today) disappear like a box of new tobacco waiting at home.

Truer words were never spoken!Right now I am awaiting a few new meers
from Turkey and when I call home from work and am told that a package
arrived a rush of adrenalin surges through me Laughing

I know what yall mean, I too get a rush every time I find out I have a new package waiting at home. I can't wait to get off work to hurry home and find out what it is.

Love that feeling. Right now I'm waiting in glorious anticipation of a package from Winslow. As Gomez Adams once said, "The waiting is torture. I hope it lasts."

Winnie the Pooh was also torn, as to whether he more enjoyed that first taste of honey, or the moment JUST before the first taste.

28 envelopes were sent out last Sataurday morning,I imagine most will arrive
Wednesday or Thursday.It is so nice to get something that's not a bill or jury
duty summons or a Draft Notice!For those of you who remember those wicked
things. Mad

I agree completely. I usually get off work a half hour to 45 mins. after the mail has come (at times I wish I were first instead of last on the mail route, but the thought my baccy has been waiting all day for me while I'm working is horrifying Shocked

; so I'm ok with it lol).

Off for a bowl of Anniversary Kake Very Happy

Forgot to finish my sentence lol (darn me, I get into a set of parentheses and keep going on and on about some side note and... oops! almost did it again!). The rest of the sentence was supposed to be, "so I always feel an adrenaline rush when a box should be arriving."

Takes one back to a 'Christmas morning as a kid' kind of feeling.

My favorite moment is when I open a cardboard box full of tobacco I ordered....that smell, that excitement can't be matched.
