See Hula. See Hula's head. See Hula's head spin.

So, the float materials arrived….AT 3PM! So the third of my four days to build the float are gone. I have one day. ONE day. Although I’m not sure I have the strength to work on it tomorrow after the heart attack I got from the float company at 1:30pm today. I called to find out the tracking number on my shipment since it hadn’t arrived yet, and frankly, my colon was starting to twinge in various places between my navel and THERE. It kinked into a big knot when the customer service representative told me the computer was indicating they had used ground shipping instead of Fed-Ex and then promptly sent me to a dead end voicemail extension I had specifically asked not to be sent to. After I picked my head up off the floor, put it back on and redialed, I found someone who understood the verbal enema that was about to take place, did some checking and reassured me it had been sent Fed-Ex and would arrive by 3pm. It did, and now it sits in our warehouse awaiting my hands. As daddy says, it’s gonna be all arseholes and elbows tomorrow.
