Title: I'm going crazy today!
Post by: sparkleset80 on March 11, 2013, 11:18:21 AM
I have 3 pony packages coming my way... 2 are coming from another country and 1 from here in the US. The suspense is killing me waiting to see if any will come in the mail today! I usually can handle waiting but today for some reason I'm so impatient for them to get here! I keep looking out the window to see if I can see the mailman (and the mail doesn't usually come until 3pm). What is my problem? I need a pony chill pill. Ever get like this too?

I'm like that every time I buy a pony. Mail comes around 3-5 PM here, but from 11 AM on I stay in the front room, every day until my ponies come. I just get so anxious that if I don't get to the mailbox first, I won't get my ponies. :P

I try not to think about it, lol. Of course being at work all day helps with that - then I get home and find a package. For me it's worse if I have a delivery "come pick it up at the post office" slip, or if hubby is home and messages me to tell me something has arrived. For some reason that point of the suspense is worse, I think because then I *know* it's so close, but don't have it quite yet.

I am like this right now because I have one coming from canada , and it got to the us last week and last I knew left a processing center on the 6 th , I have yet to see her. I am very anxious that she has gotten lost in the mail despite having a tracking number.  I keep checking the usps site and keep getting old info.

Yes I am waiting for the mail too and its driving me crazy.  Then when I am not waiting for mail I feel depressed. LOL its just a terrible state of mind one gets in with the collecting bug.

I think the worst might be having a tracking number that doesn't update. A couple ponies I bought last week had tracking but never updated, so I spent a whole week wondering "is it shipped? is it in the state? should I expect it today?" Not knowing is just awful.

Congrats on your new ponies! I know the feeling. I'm actually not allowed to open my packages until Friday, but I still get antsy on Saturday mornings and keep my ears open for the sound of the mail truck!  ^.^

I get this way when I have a lot of packages coming (which hasn't happened in a while). It's especially torturous when I have a swapbox coming. Those are some of my most favorite things to open.

All the time!!! I stalk my mailman until I get my packages hahaha waiting for pony mail is the worst. But getting pony mail is the BEST!

I have kind of learned to control myself :) I can sometimes have to wait a week to two weeks to get at parcels because I am not always at home where they are delivered. So I have learned the meaning of restraint - although sometimes when I get the text to say there has been a delivery, I get grumpy cause I cant get home to open it :P
