Surprise Incoming!

So as we were gathering the last few items for our 10 day trip to Kauai, I got a phone call from my AD letting me know that a BLNR has arrived with my name on it. Not knowing if I had any spare time before our flight(4 hours later) I asked if they would be able to hold it for me until I got back and asked if they wanted/needed a deposit. They graciously said "no problem, no deposit needed, it will be here when you get back". I was already in a good mood hyped up for my vacation, and after that phone call I was ELATED.

I obviously could not leave without picking it up as I'd just spend my time on vacation waiting for it to be over so I carved out 30 mins and rushed down to pick it up(so that it could live in my safe...)

Went on vacay, tried my best to not think about what awaits. Kauai is beautiful...

Here are some vacay douche watch pictures first.
