It's here, my new Chocolate Paddy shoulder bag. My first Chloe! 
I'm so psyched 
....but I can't see it yet. Aiieeee!
My teenage son is home today (our county schools are on a weird schedule and they have a week off), and he called to say that my package from Nordy's was just delivered. He said he feared for his life if he didn't call to tell me that it had arrived. I have him trained well!
Then, he started taunting me with it. "I'm looking at it now. Do you want me to open the box? I could open it for you. I'm touching it." I told him to step away from the box, and that if he opens it before I get home, he will have to fear for his life!
(My son's a blackbelt and bigger than me, that's really an empty threat, but we parents have to at least try to keep up appearances... 
)
He continued, unfazed. "I'm looking at the box, and you're not. It has a blue sticker on it. It's from Nordstrom...Tyson's Corner in Virginia. It's brown. I could open it for you, just a little bit...and peek inside!"
I asked him to put the box in the office for me and close the door...so it will be waiting there patiently for me to open when I get home. The really bad part is that I have a hair appointment after work, so I won't be home until 7:30 - nine whole hours from now! How will I survive? Should I reschedule my appointment until next week?

Very excited for you!!
ROFL! It certainly could! I had a nice lunch with an old friend (including dessert), and later I'll have cute hair, and then new Chloe.... My son's now away for the weekend and my fiance's been out of town for a few days, so he should be especially happy to come home. :devil:
When I was out at dinner last night, the Paddy was sitting next to me in the booth, and I just kept petting it and cuddling it.
